Ahead of the film’s release, Chris Hemsworth who voices Optimus Prime in Transformers One, opened up about the director Cooley’s “unfettered optimism, passion, and enthusiasm” for the project. He said, “The visuals are stunning and action-packed. The colours, the tones, and the details all feel fresh and unique. Such complexity was put into designing the fight scenes and developing a distinctive style for each character. It all adds up to a movie that is exciting, fun and wildly entertaining.”
He further added, “Cooley never lost sight of the heart of the story. The point of the story in the director’s eyes always remains two individuals and their parallel journeys of self-discovery. At times it’s a hilarious bromance about two best friends who end up trying to kill each other. But up until that point, there is a lot of fun to be had”
Transformers One will explore the deep bond between Orion Pax and D-16 and the events that eventually led to their clash. The film’s voice cast includes Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, Laurence Fishburne, and Jon Hamm.
The film will be released in theatres on September 20, 2024.
