The Big Picture The Transformers' universe is about to expand for the franchise’s 40th anniversary with the film Transformers One. This is the first animated film in the franchise since 1986’s The Transformers: The Movie. However, the film is in the same world as the live-action series started by director Michael Bay in 2007. Set billions of years before that action-packed blockbuster, the story takes place on Cybertron.
The Voices of 'Transformers One' Take the Stage Close Another main difference from the live-action films is the voice cast. While Peter Cullen won’t be returning as Optimus, in his place is Chris Hemsworth, best known for his role as Thor in the MCU. He’s joined by other Marvel alum like Brian Tyree Henry as Megatron, Scarlett Johansson as Elita aka Arcee and Laurence Fishburne as Alpha Trion. Other cast members include Keegan-Michael Key as Bumblebee and Steve Buscemi as Starscream.
The 'Transformers One' Panel Showed Three Exclusive Sneak Peeks The first sneak peek shows Cyberton’s version of the Olympics, the Iacon 5000, highlighting what’s fun about this planet and what life is like when everything is going well. Optimus Prime and Megatron watch excitedly from a prime spot Optimus has chosen, especially eager to see the star of the show: Sentinel Prime.
The final sneak peek sees the gang being woken up and interrogated by some iconic Deceptions, including Starscream and Soundwave, who reveal they were once the high guard who saw the primes fall and have been fighting in the shadows ever since. The Deceptions are suspicious that they’re spies and threaten to kill them. Optimus Prime explains that all he wants is a unified Cybertron, but Starscream says that’s a myth — all that matters is the strength of one bot over another.
