Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for its Transformers One animated film and it’s… different. When I first saw this trailer at CinemaCon, it wasn’t what I expected at all.
Now you can check out the trailer for yourself and I’m curious to see what you think. Personally, I don’t like the direction they are taking the franchise because the atmosphere is nothing like Transformers.
The stars of the film Chris Hemsworth AND Brian Tyree Henrywho play the young Optimus Prime and Megatron, present the trailer.
This film tells the “origin story of how the most iconic characters in the Transformers universe, Orion Pax and D-16, went from brothers in arms to becoming sworn enemies, Optimus Prime and Megatron.”
Ramsey Naito, president of Paramount Animation and Nickelodeon Animation, said: “I am so excited and proud to work with Hasbro and eOne to bring the first animated Transformers film to theaters for a never-before-told story.
“I am honored to have such incredible talents come together to play these famous and much-loved characters in an origin story at the heart of the franchise.”
The film seems more like an animated comedy for children. Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura previously said: “This is… the origin story of young Megatron and young Optimus. If you know the origin, they started out as friends and over time things went their way and they ended up on two sides.
“So we’re telling the story of young Optimus and young Megatron. We’re really telling the origin story of all the Transformers, both who they were in the beginning, how they grow up, and how they grow apart.”
This will be the first of what Di Bonaventura calls a “natural trilogy” and will explore “Cybertron in a way that you’ve never seen it, that nobody’s ever seen before.”
The rest of the voice cast includes Scarlett Johansson like Elita-1, while Keegan-Michael Key will voice the first version of Bumblebee (B-127). Laurence Fishburne will voice Alpha Trion and Jon Hamm will voice Sentinel Prime.
The film is directed by Josh Cooley (Toy story 4) from a screenplay he wrote with Andrea Barrar AND Gabriele Ferrari.
The film will be released on September 13, 2024. Watch the trailer and tell us what you think!
