DreamWorks Animation has announced Season 5 of the award-winning animated series, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, will premiere May 15 on Netflix. The popular series has put women unabashedly at the forefront on and off screen, with empowered characters brought to life by a diverse voice cast, an all-female writers’ room and a majority female crew.
