Two Character Posters for TRANSFORMERS ONE - "Every Hero and Every Villain Has an Origin"
Two new posters have been released forTransformers One, and they feature the two main characters of the story, Orion Pax and D-16, who eventually become Optimus Prime and Megatron.
The posters were shared on social media and they came with the caption, “Every hero and every villain has an origin story.”
This movie 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 become sworn enemies, Optimus Prime and Megatron.”
The film has been getting high praise from those who have seen the full film, but I’m not really seeing it in the trailers that have been released. The film looks way too silly to me for me. The tone and way the characters are portrayed don’t feel like the characters that I know.
I recently saw a few clips from the film at Comic-Con, and while I wanted to be excited about this movie, I’m just not feeling it.
The film stars Chris Hemsworth as Orion Pax / Optimus Prime, Brian Tyree Henry as D-16 / Megatron, Scarlett Johansson as Elita-1, and Keegan-Michael Key as B-127 / Bumblebee.
Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura previously said: "This is … the origin story of young Megatron and young Optimus. If you know the origin, they started as friends, and over time things devolved for them and they ended up on two sides.
“So we're telling the young Optimus and the young Megatron story. We really are telling the origin story of all Transformers, both what they were at the beginning of it, to how they grow, to how they grow apart."
This will be the first of what Di Bonaventura calls a "natural trilogy,” and it’s going to explore “Cybertron in a way you've never seen it, that no one's ever seen it before.”
Transformers One will hit theaters on September 20th. Watch the most recent trailer here.
