“Transformers One” shows Optimus Prime and Megatron as friends in its first trailer

It’s here, literally from space, the first trailer for “Transformers One”, the new film in the popular saga of the Autobots and Decepticons. This prequel, which will hit theaters in September, tells how the two most iconic characters of the franchise, Optimus Prime and Megatron, went from being brothers in arms to becoming bitter enemies.

Orion Pax and D-16, that’s what the two main robots were originally called before acquiring their powers and becoming the leaders of the two opposing factions in Transformers. This is revealed by the preview that began a unique and spatial event.

And one hour before the premiere of the trailer, a countdown showed the journey into space of a ship that reached its peak almost 4 kilometers above the Earth, revealing the trailer that was presented in a video by two of the stars of the film, Chris Hemsworth who voices Optimus Prime and Brian Tyree Henry, who voices Megatron.
