MUMBAI : Get ready to dive into the Transformers universe like never before! Transformers One is set to reignite the saga with a thrilling prequel, introducing a cast of fresh, dynamic characters that will reshape everything you thought you knew. For the first time ever, we're exclusively revealing five key players from Transformers One who will be at the heart of this epic new chapter. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just getting started, these characters are bound to leave a lasting impression.
ORION PAX
Voiced by Chris Hemsworth, ORION PAX is a dreamer, a young bot not yet the OPTIMUS PRIME he is one day destined to become. Rebellious and restless, he’s charitable to a fault and sees the best in everyone, including his enemies. But he is also really not great at playing by Cybertron’s strict rules. Getting into endless scrapes with his best friend, D-16, ORION PAX may be charming and cheeky, but he is also curious about the history of Cybertron - and may well prove critical to their future.
D-16
In some ways, D-16 is the most trusting of all the young TRANSFORMERS – a rule-follower who accepts his lot in life. On the other hand, he is destined to become MEGATRON – the most ruthless of all TRANSFORMERS. For now, though, D-16 is aware of his limitations like all Iacon’s miners, he doesn’t yet possess a TRANSFORMER cog that’ll let him take on another form – and idolises his leader, SENTINEL PRIME. He has a deep sense of principle and belief that crimes should be punished, but is also best friends with ORION PAX, a constant source of trouble. D-16 is voiced by Bryan Tyree Henry.
ELITA-1
Voiced by Scarlett Johansson, incredibly capable and a natural-born leader, ELITA-1 is hungry for the recognition she deserves. In her day job, as one of the upper management staff overseeing the unruly miners in the Energon mines – not least rogue tearaway ORION PAX, who she calls, “Mr. Zero-Seconds-Since-My-Last-Accident” and D-16 – she exudes a ruthless efficiency and competence. But there’s more to this ambitious careerist than meets the eye. Supremely agile in combat, and with a wicked sense of humour lurking under that starchy exterior, ELITA-1 is possessed of a goal and drive to go somewhere, she’s just not quite sure where exactly that is yet.
B-127
B-127 is a loyal, excitable motormouth who is an endless source of joy and fun. While he may seem naïve and overly optimistic, B-127 has a resilience that means he can cope with pretty much anything and is the glue holding things together when friend-groups start to fracture. He is voiced by Keegan Michael Key. One thing you should know about B-127, he would like for you to call him "B" although he is working on a few other names for himself. His current favourite? ‘BADASSATRON.’
Starscream
As leader of the banished Cybertronian High Guard, STARSCREAM sits proudly on his throne and lives by a simple mantra: “All that counts is the strength of one bot over another!” These are prophetic words from MEGATRON’S eventual, and most opportunistic, lieutenant. Voiced by Steve Buscemi, he is a ruthless fighter on land, his aerial combat skills are tough to match, even on Cybertron.
Transformers One delivers a captivating blend of classic and new elements, with these key characters driving the action and emotional depth of the story. Whether it’s Optimus Prime’s steadfast leadership or Elita-1’s strategic prowess, these characters are integral to the epic narrative of this latest installment in the Transformers saga. Releasing on 20th September in India, don't miss out on this epic prequel to the Transformers franchise!
