The 1986 animation even included profanity! If you know, you know. After so much time has passed, we’re ready to hit the road with a new Transformers film that delves into Optimus and Megatron’s origins and sees how two inseparable friends became sworn enemies.

In Transformers One, Orion Pax and D-16 are the best of friends on Cybertron. Joined by B-127 and Elita on a quest to find the Matrix of Leadership, they discover that Sentinel Prime's rule of Cybertron is built on lies and set out to expose their leader.
However, they have vastly different approaches to that; costumed by hatred after learning Sentinel Prime secretly joined with the Quintessons to maintain his power over Cybertron, D-16 decides revealing the truth to everyone isn't enough.
He sets out to kill the villain and, during the fight, accidentally shoots Pax into Cybertron's core. With no one left to oppose him, D-16 murders Sentinel Prime, takes Megatronus' cog, and rebrands himself as Megatron.

There’s more than meets the eye at the box office this weekend.
Paramount and Hasbro Entertainment’s “Transformers One,” the franchise’s first fully animated film since 1986, has made $3.36 million in Thursday previews at the box office.
The family-friendly film, directed by Josh Cooley (“Toy Story 4”), is expected to make between $30 million and $40 million in its opening weekend, enough to take down Warner Bros.’ “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” and claim the box office crown. Tim Burton’s “Beetlejuice” sequel, another follow-up to a beloved ’80s film, has been the top movie for the past two weeks and is on track to add $25 million in its third weekend.
With a $75 million budget, “Transformers One” should be able to roll out to a profit thanks to its positive reviews and well-received new take on the fan-favorite IP. Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry star in the film as younger versions of Optimus Prime and Megatron,...

This post contains spoilers for "Transformers One."
"Transformers One," the fully-animated prequel, has arrived. Set on Cybertron, home planet of these autonomous robots, the movie depicts how Optimus Prime (Chris Hemsworth) and Megatron (Brian Tyree Henry) went from best friends -- and nobodies named Orion Pax and D-16 -- to leading two sides of a galactic civil war. (Read /Film's "Transformers One" review here to find out whether or not it succeeds.)
Even with its brief 104-minute runtime, "Transformers One" shows the beginnings of the other most important conflict in Megatron's life: The one with his future second-in-command, the Decepticons' treacherous Air Commander Starscream.
Starscream's defining quality has always been a desire to overthrow Megatron and supplant him as Decepticon leader. He's too ambitious and egomaniacal to accept serving under someone else, but in the end, he can never surpass Megatron as a warrior or leader. Starscream is so synonymous...

Are Optimus Prime and Megatron about to banish Beetlejuice Beetlejuice back to the Neitherworld when Transformers One rolls out in theaters this weekend? Analysts say Paramount‘s animated Transformers origin story could ride to the top of the box office with a $30-$40M debut. If these numbers hold, Transformers One will take the top spot, burying Tim Burton’s worth-the-wait sequel beneath a mound of dirt and static grass.
Despite Transformers One likely taking the box office crown this weekend, let’s give it up for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which earned $188 million domestically and $264 million worldwide. A little more than $106 of that $264M is mine after taking myself, my wife, and three friends to see Burton’s new film this past weekend. Was it worth waiting for? Absolutely!

Following stellar first reviews, Paramount Pictures has released a final trailer for its animated prequel movie, Transformers One, ahead of its theatrical debut this weekend.
The story focuses on legendary foes Optimus Prime (then known as Orion Pax) and Megatron (then named D-16) before they became sworn enemies as leaders of their respective Transformer factions, the Autobots and Decepticons.
Chris Hemsworth (Thor) voices Pax, with Brian Tyree Henry (Eternals) as D-16, and the movie introduces the two then-friends as simple worker bots, unable to transform into their vehicle and weapon forms. As they assemble a group of fellow warriors to do battle against a mysterious villain, they gain the ability to become "Robots in Disguise."
"In a way, I kept thinking of it like the original Star Wars, just the very first one," director Josh Cooley said of his take on the lore during an interview with io9. "If you’re a superfan,...

Will Optimus Prime and Megatron be able to scare off the Ghost With the Most?
Paramount and Hasbro’s animated “Transformers One,” an origin story about the feuding Autobots and Decepticons, is targeting $30 million to $40 million in its opening weekend. Based on those projections, it’ll easily dethrone the two-time champion, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.” The spooky Warner Bros. sequel is looking to add roughly $25 million in its third weekend of release. “Beetlejuice 2” has grossed $188 million domestically and $264 million globally to date.
“Toy Story 4” director Josh Cooley helmed “Transformers One,” which cost $75 million and features the ensemble voice cast of Chris Hemsworth (as Optimus Prime), Brian Tyree Henry (as Megatron), as well as Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, Laurence Fishburne and Jon Hamm.

Paramount Animation and Hasbro Entertainment’s Transformers One, the first animated Transformers movie in close to 40 years, looks to liven up the mid-September box office with a domestic start in the low-$30Ms with potential for upside.
Transformers One will keep the domestic box office at its excellent clip. Through the last weekend of April, the domestic B.O. stood at $2.07 billion, 20% behind 2023. Since then, through last weekend, the domestic box office has made an additional $4 billion for a running Ytd cume of $6.08 billion, now 12% behind last year.
Advance ticket sales are solid from Thursday through Saturday, ahead of last year’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem ($28M 3-day) and Trolls Band Together ($30M).
Josh Cooley directed what has been described for months as one of Paramount’s highest-testing animated movies. The $75M production tells the origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, who were buddies before becoming sworn enemies.

The first teaser for Transformers One was a curveball with humor predominantly displayed, but the following trailers have displayed more than just jokes. Now, early reactions have been very positive. Including our own Chris Bumbray saying in his review, “One thing worth noting is that the audience I saw this with Really seemed to love the movie. They laughed and cheered throughout, and when it was over, the audience gave it a huge round of applause, which is something you really never get at free screenings in my neck of the woods. There’s a reason why Paramount’s been doing so many word-of-mouth screenings, as this has the potential to be a major hit, and, again, it’s the best Transformers movie ever made by a wide margin.”

"Now is the time to stand together!" Opening in theaters nationwide This week! Paramount has launched a final official trailer for Transformers One, the animation creation from Hasbro & New Republic Pictures. Everyone that has seen this says it's actually Very good! Transformers One is based on the toys by Hasbro and is the 8th installment in the Transformers movies series. This "prequel" is set on the planet Cybertron and will center on the initially friendly relationship between the bots Optimus Prime & Megatron, and how they turned against each other. Directed by Josh Cooley (Toy Story 4), the main voice cast includes Chris Hemsworth as Optimus, Brian Tyree Henry as Megatron, Scarlett Johansson as Elita, with Keegan-Michael Key as Bumblebee, Jon Hamm, Laurence Fishburne, and Steve Buscemi.

The "Transformers" franchise was away for several years following the release of 2018's "Bumblebee," which helped get things back on track, critically speaking, following Michael Bay's later entries in the series. Things have changed, though, and now, fans have much to look forward to. Paramount is once again bringing the robots in disguise back to their animated roots for a new theatrical feature film titled "Transformers One," which serves as a prequel set years and years back in the timeline.
Given that the film takes place so far back in the history of Cybertron, there is much story to tell. The film's producers have already suggested that "Transformers One" is intended to set up a trilogy. So, does that set up begin once the credits roll? Do viewers need to stick around for any credits scenes? That's what we're here to discuss in spoiler-free fashion. Seriously, we will not...

The Transformers franchise is one of the best-known mecha franchises of all time. What began as an animated series and a line of action figures evolved into one of the most well-known brands worldwide and among the greatest shows of the 1980s. Numerous reboots and revivals have been made since its debut, including video games and a live-action movie series that had a successful beginning but eventually started to wane.
The live-action franchise is currently going through a soft reboot or revamp with Bumblebee becoming a hit for the franchise after many failures. Now, the franchise is heading in a somewhat different direction, as a CGI feature-length animated movie, Transformers One, is going to be released very soon.
In light of that, our friends at ComicBook.com have had a short talk with Chris Hemsworth and Bryan Tyree Henry, the film’s main stars, who have provided the voices of Optimus Prime and Megatron,...

After 17 years of big-screen Transformers mayhem, Toy Story 4 director Josh Cooley appears to have finally figured out the best possible place and presentation for the robots in disguise, and as it turns out, that place is right back where they started: animation. Written by Eric Pearson, Andrew Barrer, and Gabriel Ferrari, Transformers One is, at heart, about sentient robots fighting aliens and each other for the fate of the technological utopia of Cybertron. No need to get poor John Turturro peed on again, or Mark Wahlberg to stare blankly at nothing on a green screen. A realm without physical limits is truly where the Transformers belong, but it doesn’t stop the film from delivering some surprising pathos while it’s there.
Indeed, Transformers One is, in itself, more than meets the eye. It seems like a simple, even frivolous, origin story at the outset, when we meet Orion...

Back in the spring of 2023, "Wednesday" star Jenna Ortega said on a podcast that she personally rewrote some parts of the Netflix show's script that she didn't think quite worked. So, what do the show's creators think about that?
Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, who created the series for the streamer, were speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about their work on the Burton-Ortega collaboration "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" when the outlet brought up Ortega's comments. To be honest, both Gough and Millar handled it very professionally.
"That's hard," Gough admitted, adding that he and Millar have dealt with somewhat similar situations before. "We've done a few of these shows, like 'Smallville,' which was a big hit out of the gate. Suddenly, you have these young stars in the spotlight. They're going to misstep. They're going to say things. I think you just have to give them grace and know that it happens.

While there are those who will sigh at the mere mention of Autobots and/or Decepticons these days, there is no denying that "Transformers" has been one of the most successful franchises of the past 20 years. Dating back to Michael Bay's original 2007 live-action film, the series based on Hasbro's beloved toys has done gangbusters business at the box office, paving the way for more shows, merchandise, theme park attractions, and yes, toys. Now, can Paramount bring things full circle and deliver a hit animated feature film in this universe? That is the question "Transformers One" will have to answer.
The animated prequel is set to reach theaters next weekend. Directed by Josh Cooley, of "Toy Story 4" fame, "Transformers One" is currently eyeing an opening in the $37 to $45 million range, per Box Office Theory. That is obviously on the low side in terms of what we've come to expect from this franchise,...

We saw the trailer for Salem's Lot earlier today, and we now have a first look at a slightly less intense vampire movie.
Lionsgate has released the first trailer for what's described as a new "comedy thriller" (we'd say horror is more apt) called The Radleys, which was directed by Euros Lyn and written by Talitha Stevenson.
Damian Lewis and Kelly Macdonald star as a married couple with two kids who are hiding a dark secret: they're all undead monsters who must consume blood to survive.
Not exactly the sort of thing one would want spread around the neighbourhood, and the family's seemingly idyllic suburban life is thrown into turmoil when daughter, Clara, gives into her natural impulses and kills a teenager who was sexually assaulting her in the woods.

The first reviews for Paramount Pictures' animated prequel movie, Transformers One, are in, and they are (mostly) very positive indeed - which is somewhat surprising given the mixed-negative reactions to the trailers.
The story focuses on legendary foes Optimus Prime (then known as Orion Pax) and Megatron (then named D-16) before they became sworn enemies as leaders of their respective Transformer factions, the Autobots and Decepticons.
Chris Hemsworth (Thor) voices Pax, with Brian Tyree Henry (Eternals) as D-16, and the movie introduces the two then-friends as simple worker bots, unable to transform into their vehicle and weapon forms. As they assemble a group of fellow warriors to do battle against a mysterious, plant-like villain, they gain the ability to become "Robots in Disguise."
Though some critics weren't quite as won over by this family-friendly adventure as others (there are a couple of negative verdicts), it sounds like the studio has...

Anyone seeing a Transformers movie knows to expect many examples of the imaginative robotic transformations that give the films their name. But with the exception of 2018’s Bumblebee, they’ve been overlong, lumbering bores offering little to those who aren’t rabid fans of the Hasbro toys. It’s a pleasure, then, to report that the series’ first animated theatrical feature in nearly 40 years proves a thoroughly entertaining origin story that even the uninitiated can enjoy. Besides the raucous, de rigueur action sequences, Transformers One provides numerous witty jokes of both the verbal and visual variety and — surprise, surprise — genuine emotion. Consider this a franchise revitalized.
Origin stories can be hit or miss (Furiosa, anyone?), but like the recent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, animation seems to have worked magic here. Not that that’s terribly shocking, considering that the human characters in the previous Transformers films have always seemed superfluous.

Jack Huston has joined the cast of Spider-Noir. He will star as a series regular alongside Nicolas Cage, who plays an “aging and down on his luck private investigator in 1930s New York who is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.” Cage first voiced the character in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
I’ve been re-watching Boardwalk Empire recently, and Huston is just phenomenal as Richard Harrow, a heartbreaking character who is one hell of a badass. It’s not known exactly who Huston will play in Spider-Noir, but it’s said he will be a bodyguard. Perhaps he’ll be watching over Brendan Gleeson’s character, who is expected to be the main villain of the series.

Robert De Niro and Steve Buscemi were among the Hollywood stars who took part in Sunday’s “Paisans for Kamala,” a livestream featuring prominent Italian Americans hoping to drum up support and donations for the Harris-Walz presidential campaign.
De Niro kicked off the event — hosted by comedian Paul Mecurio, former New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and former Providence, Rhode Island, Mayor Joseph Paolino Jr. — by saying he’s hopeful that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will win the 2024 presidential election but warned that their supporters should not get complacent.
“I’m very optimistic about it all,” he said. “I’m very excited, but to me, it ain’t over till it’s over. So we can’t for one second think that we’re ahead of this thing. We just have to be on it all the time until the very end because they’re going to try everything when the election day comes.

Brian Tyree Henry got a surprising compliment while appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” It happened because the “Atlanta” and “Eternals” star was waiting in the green room with Kimmel’s other guest for the evening, second gentleman of the United States Doug Emhoff, whom he dubbed “the sweetest man in the world.”
“I was like, ‘I’m coming over for dinner, right?’ He was like, ‘Absolutely,'” Henry told Kimmel on Thursday night. But the most exciting part of their encounter had to do with Harris.
“I found out that Vice President Kamala Harris is a fan of mine, so I was like, I can die now,” Henry said. “She apparently also wants me to have bigger roles. So if you are watching, Hollywood, she has requested it, and you must follow through.”

Martin Scorsese was already a fashion icon. Now, he’s reveling in that spotlight.
The auteur leads the latest campaign for streetwear brand Kith, which famously selects iconic stars such as Willem Dafoe and Steve Buscemi to lead their ads. Think Skims level marketing genius, but even Kim Kardashian can’t top anything with Scorsese starring.
The “Killers of the Flower Moon” director appears in the debut ad for Kith for Giorgio Armani, marking the first-ever collaboration in Giorgio Armani’s history.
“Through his revolutionary and era-defining work in cinema, Mr. Scorsese is an artistic icon,” the official release reads. “He is also a longtime friend of Mr. Armani, which led him to direct ‘Made in Milan’ — a documentary about the designer’s life and the growth of the brand. His steadfast representation of his hometown, New York, is a value shared and respected by fellow native, Ronnie Fieg. For these reasons and more,...

As we found out from Wednesday Addams on her namesake series, she doesn’t bury hatchets – she sharpens them. Well, it looks like the pencil has been sharpened as well, as the first season of the Netflix series has received the literary treatment in the aptly titled Wednesday: A Novelization of Season One.
The Wednesday novelization comes courtesy of publisher Random House Books for Young Readers and author Tehlor Kay Mejia. Geared at young adults, this looks to be just the sort of book you would see a certain sect of middle school students reading in class. While it will be available through multiple outlets, Target’s release comes with an exclusive poster.
Here is the official synopsis of the Wednesday novelization: “Return to the hallowed halls of Nevermore Academy with Wednesday Addams in this delightfully dark novelization of season one of the hit show, Wednesday! Wednesday is a sleuthing,...
