Transformers: Rise of the Beasts trailer introduces us to a new Autobot

A new trailer for Transformers: Rise of the Beasts has arrived.

Based on the Beast Wars storyline, the new film follows a pair of human archaeologists – Noah, played by Anthony Ramos (In the Heights) and Elena, played by Dominique Fishback (Judas and the Black Messiah) - who stumble upon new three new iterations of the Transformers race: the Maximals, Predacons, and Terrorcons.

Steven Caple Jr. (Creed II) directs from a screenplay by Joby Harold, Darnell Metayer, Josh Peters, Erich Hoeber, and Jn Hoeber. Previously, longtime franchise producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura promised that the franchise would evolve into a mix between the epic scale of the Michael Bay movies, and the heart of the recent Bumblebee standalone movie.

"This is a spectacle story," di Bonaventura said. "We’re going for the full experience our franchise has come to be known for." Rise of the Beasts is set to reboot the Transformers franchise, the first of three new installments.
