Next month, legions of “Transformers” fans will be treated to the first-ever all CG animated feature film starring the Autobots and Decepticons in an emotional origin story three billion years in the making, and we’re sharing an electrifying new trailer and exclusive Dolby Cinema poster to herald its imminent autumnal approach.
Landing on planet Earth for its worldwide roll out on Sep. 20, 2024, “Transformers One” will reveal the untold backstory of how two Energon-mining worker ‘bots named Orion Pax and D-16 became the mortal foes we all know today as Optimus Prime and Megatron. This fractured relationship entrenched by conflicting ideologies will forever alter the fate of their Cybertron homeworld and directly enflame the drums of war as the dastardly Decepticons rise to power.
“Transformers One” is directed by the Pixar veteran and Academy Award-winning filmmaker Josh Cooley (“Toy Story 4”) and is fortified with an exceptional vocal cast that includes Chris Hemsworth (Orion Pax, aka Optimus Prime), Brian Tyree Henry (D-16, aka Megatron), Keegan-Michael Key (B-127, aka Bumblebee), Scarlett Johansson (Elita-1), Laurence Fishburne (Alpha Trion), Jon Hamm (Sentinel Prime) and Steve Buscemi (Starscream).
In addition to this mad rush of robots in disguise featured in this latest trailer that showcases the superb CGI work by Industrial Light & Magic, Dolby Cinema has just unveiled its eye-catching new poster created for the $180 million movie’s release.
