the transformers franchise It goes back to its animated roots with the Transformers: OneAnd now we know who will lend his voice to the film.

The movie will tell the story of how Optimus Prime and Megatron started out as friends and became enemies on their home planet Cybertron. It aims to establish the origins of the beloved characters and how the war for the AllSpark began. a long time ago transformers Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura He previously told Collider About the project“,”You’ll see a lot of the community’s origins, and what brought it apart. The analogy for me is a bit like on Krypton when you saw the planet fall apart, and all that. We’re not there for a short time, we’re there for the duration of the movie, we’re in Cybertron, but the challenge is, if you know the lore, they start to question the hierarchy of how their society became stratified, and how the common man doesn’t quite have the voice he wants. We’re following the original story exactly, and so it’s really fun too, because I got to see some of it – it’s not fully done in any way, but hearing Optimus and Megatron isn’t who we know, and seeing their maturity in that experience. So, in a sense, you’re hearing a different personality because you’re hearing it before you’ve matured.”
