Rock group The Darkness have written and produced a theme tune for the live action reboot of the 1980's He-Man series.

Dan Hawkins, the Suffolk band's guitarist, and his brother, Justin, singer and lead guitarist, watched the animated show as children.

He told BBC Look East that Daniel Pemberton, the score composer for the new film, was looking for a theme tune "as camp as He-man and as rocking as Queen".

As well as the Lowestoft hard rockers, The Masters Of The Universe soundtrack features music from Brian May, lead guitarist of Queen.
