Nickelodeon’s Kids Choice Awards recently showcased a sneak peek at the upcoming movie Transformers One. This new film by Paramount serves as a CG prequel to the popular live-action Transformers series. The storyline takes place on Cybertron before the planet is torn apart by war, introducing young versions of well-known robot characters like Optimus Prime and Megatron, who are known as Orion Pax and D-16, respectively, in this film.
The clip reveals how these robots, along with Elita-One and Bee, gain the ability to transform for the first time. However, with new powers come new challenges, leading to some humorous mishaps and slapstick comedy. The movie is geared towards a younger audience, particularly those under 12 years old, marking a shift from the franchise’s usual target demographic of mid-teens.
One of the highlights of Transformers One is its visually stunning depiction of Cybertron, drawing inspiration from the beloved Generation 1 aesthetic. The movie’s vibrant and distinctive animation style is a refreshing change for the series, hinting at the potential for more animated films in the future. Transformers One is set to hit theaters on September 20, offering fans a new take on the beloved Transformers universe.
