Also paying tribute to the actor Peter Cullen, who for decades has voiced Optimus Prime, the extraction star stated how Cullen taught the world strength, gentleness, and compassion.

Described by Paramount as the long-awaited 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 movie also stars Brian Tyree Henry as the young Megatron aka D-16.

While not many details of the project have been revealed, Transformers One is directed by the Toy Story 4 director, Josh Cooley, and has the script written by Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari. With Steven Spielberg as one of the executive producers, Transformers One will be released on September 13, 2024.
