Netflix Renews SHE-RA AND THE PRINCESSES OF POWER

Netflix has renewed the animated series She-Ra and The Princesses of Power for a second season, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Netflix and showrunner Noelle Stevenson also announced on Thursday that She-Ra will return this April 26.

Stevenson developed She-Ra for Netflix with executive producer Chuck Austen.

The Netflix series is a more progressive take on the story that follows Adora, an orphan raised by the villainous Horde who claims the mantle of She-Ra, Princess of Power to defend the land of Etheria. He-Man, the character's famous relative, was kept out of Adora's origin to let her stand on her own and she was better off for it.

She-Ra was praised for its inclusive storytelling, which featured LGBTQ characters and gender-bending sequences.

The voice cast includes Aimee Carrero (Adora/She-Ra), Karen Fukuhara (Glimmer), AJ Michalka (Catra), and Marcus Scribner (Bow).
