Star Trek’s Comic-Con panel Saturday revealed the trailer for the Discovery spinoff movie Section 31, with Michelle Yeoh reprising her role from that series.
For the non-Trekkies, Yeoh — before her Oscar win for Everything Everywhere All at Once — played two roles on Star Trek: Discovery, first as Captain Philippa Georgiou (who dies early on) and then, from the “mirror universe,” Emperor Philippa Georgiou.
It’s the latter, villainous character that Yeoh will be portraying in Section 31, the title of which references a secret division of Starfleet that deals with spycraft and covert operations.

Megan Fox made her breakthrough role in Michael Bay’s Transformers as Mikaela Banes. The actress’ career catapulted with the continued success of the sequel Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The actress starred alongside rising star Shia Labeouf and they played lovers amidst the larger Transformers world.

Megan Fox recently starred in Machine Gun Kelly’s latest music video as a pregnant lady and later ‘gave birth’ to a baby girl by the end of the video. While many have been thinking it is a pregnancy announcement, the actress is not pregnant as far as we know.
Megan Fox [as Jennifer Check in 2009’s Jennifer’s Body | 20th Century Fox]While the speculation continues on, her appearance in the video might be something to do with the unfortunate miscarriage she suffered with Kelly, during their relationship. Although the actress had not revealed back then what went wrong, she, years before her relationship with Kelly, had made a brutal confession about her body after having three kids.

A case can be made that in the 21st century Bumblebee has become the most popular Transformer. He’s certainly the most loved Autobot after the big red fire truck we call Optimus Prime. This is in large part due to his starring role in the first live-action Transformers movie of 2007. Despite having almost no lines of dialogue—the poor robot lost his voice!—Bumblebee found novel ways of communicating with Shia Labeouf’s Sam Witwicky: he used music and created the sensation of your first car as a teenager being your best mate.
It’s a trick that was expanded on in the prequel spinoff Bumblebee (2018), and it might be getting a whole new dimensionality now thanks to the upcoming animated film, Transformers One. Due out in September, the movie takes place three billion years ago—so long that whichever Transformers canon it may be a part of is practically mooted.

Megan Fox Went On A Heated Rant Against Tmnt Critics. (Photo Credit – Instagram)
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie starring Megan Fox, which came out in 2014, has been plagued by controversy since its first announcement. Frustrated by angry fans lashing out at the rebooted series, Fox once went on a heated rant against her detractors.
The fifth movie of the franchise and the first movie in the rebooted series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles boasts some loyal fan base. The fans who were angered by the idea of a reboot were also against Megan Fox’s casting in the film. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Peter Laird slammed Michael Bay‘s decision to cast Megan Fox as April O’Neil on his blog.
At the time, Laird wrote, “My only exposure to Megan Fox as an actress is through her role in two Transformers movies and the wretched (but happily forgettable) Jennifer’s Body.

They’ve been talking about a second “I Am Legend” movie for what feels like forever. But it looks like things might finally be moving forward on the sequel to the hit 2007 post-apocalyptic thriller.
Word on the street is that Warner Bros. has their eye on Steven Caple Jr. to direct. You may remember him from “Creed II” or last year’s “Transformers” flick. Seems like the studio really liked how he balances intense action with characters you care about. Pretty important for a movie like this.
Of course, they’ll need more than just a director – and it looks like they’re putting together an awesome cast too. Will Smith has signed on to return as Dr. Robert Neville, the last man on earth. And he’ll be joined by Michael B. Jordan, who starred in Caple Jr.’s “Creed” movies.

Exclusive: I Am Legend screenwriter and producer Akiva Goldsman teased yesterday there would be big news soon relating to the Warner Bros sequel with Will Smith and Michael B. Jordan, and what we hear is that the studio is taking an interest in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts filmmaker Steven Caple Jr. to direct.
Note it’s very early, and there haven’t been any deal papers drafted yet. Warners has met with a handful of directors, but the hope here is a reteam between Jordan and his Creed II director Caple Jr. I Am Legend 2, which we first told you about, would rep the first time that Smith and Jordan have starred together on-screen.

Recasting prime players in flagship franchises is akin to threading the needle, perhaps even more punctilious a task than that because if you’re not careful, you’ll have a bloody mess ahead of you. Just look at how The Witcher completely upended into chaos with Henry Cavill’s replacement.

When Chris Hemsworth was presented with the challenge of playing a younger version of Optimus Prime in the animated film Transformers One, he probably thought to himself, “Roll out!” But that famous catchphrase, delivered by Peter Cullen since the original 1984 cartoon show, actually presented a challenge for Hemsworth as well.
“I don’t want to follow or mimic what Peter Cullen’s done,” the Australian recalls telling producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura when he was first offered the part. If he was going to step into another iconic character’s, err, wheels, he would need to make it his own. Fortunately, Hemsworth learned, Di Bonaventura didn’t want that either.

Illumination and Universal’s Despicable Me 4 handily crossed the six-century mark at the global box office this week, now with $632M through Thursday. The latest in the series has pushed the worldwide running total for the Despicable Me/Minions franchise to $5.3B, overtaking Transformers ($5.295B) and the Avatar movies ($5.268B). This puts the franchise at No. 12 on the all-time global chart.
As we reported earlier this month, the latest installment from Gru and the gang helped propel the Despicable Me/Minions films across the $5B mark worldwide, making it the first animated franchise to reach the milestone. It was already, and remains, the biggest animated franchise of all time globally.

Given Sony's track record, most fans didn't have particularly high expectations for Madame Web. So, when the movie debuted with 12% on Rotten Tomatoes and - by the end of its run - earned only $100.3 million at the worldwide box office, it didn't come as a huge surprise.
Despite boasting an impressive cast and a director with superhero experience in Sj Clarkson, little to nothing about Madame Web worked and it's now destined to be remembered as one of the worst superhero movies ever made.
Producer Avi Arad wasn't involved with Madame Web (a genuine surprise given his dismal history with Marvel) but Lorenzo di Bonaventura was. While his credits include the G.I. Joe and Transformers franchises, his presence clearly did little to help elevate a movie penned by the Morbius scribes.
Talking to ComicBook.com at the San Diego Comic-Con, Bonaventura was asked whether there's a chance we'll see the Spider-Women again.

Transformers, robots in disguise! Transformers, more than meets the eye! So the iconic theme tune goes, and so seems to be the case with Toy Story 4 director Josh Cooley's upcoming Transformers One, an all-new animated origin story for everybody's favourite metamorphic hunks of metal. Set three billion years before Michael Bay's movies, Cooley's movie is taking us back to before the fall of Transformer homeworld Cybertron, where we'll get to see how Chris Hemsworth's Orion Pax and Brian Tyree Henry's D-16 — better known to us now as Optimus Prime and Megatron — went from firm friends to fierce foes. The latest trailer for the film, premiered last night at Sdcc, reveals more about how the Transformers got their power and the roots of the millennia spanning conflict between Autobots and Decepticons. Check it out below:

Chris Hemsworth's children made him accept his role in 'Transformers One'.The 40-year-old actor voices Orion Pax aka Optimus Prime in the upcoming animated origin story, and when he was first offered the job, the 'Thor' star turned to his and Elsa Pataky's three kids, India, 12, and 10-year-old twins Sasha and Tristan, who he described as his "consultants".Admitting they "played a big part" in his accepting the role, he recalled to People magazine: "I had gone to my kids and said, 'What do you think?' And they said, 'You have to do it.' "The trio all joined their dad in the voiceover booth and he enjoyed having them encourage him in his work.He said: "They were in the background as I was recording a lot of these lines. They were kind of yelling suggestions or trying to distract me. It was cool.

Paramount kicked off the big studio presentations at San Diego Comic-Con in high style, showing off the cast and scenes from its upcoming animated feature, Transformers One.
The studio has been hyping up the movie for a couple of months. It showed a work-in-progress version at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June, while a fan screening hit Los Angeles earlier this week — so the panel was light on news.
It did, however, more than make up for that with the charm of its crowd-pleasing voice cast: Chris Hemsworth as Orion Pax, who will evolve into Optimus Prime; Brian Tyree Henry as D-16, who will turn into villainous Megatron; and Keegan-Michael Key, whose B-127 will become Bumblebee.
The trio were on stage with director Josh Cooley and longtime Transformers franchise producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura.
Key had the crowd laughing by making Transformers sound effects and singing the classic theme song.

“The relationship between the buyer and the studio has shifted — quite a bit,” exclaimed Transformers producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura today at Comic-Con.
The former Warner Bros Motion Picture studio boss was part of Collider’s Producers on Producing panel alongside Oscar winner Akiva Goldsman and Roy Lee.
By buyer, di Bonaventura meant studio.
“The producer’s job was to protect the studio, but they’ve become less and less trusting partners, and more judgmental of what we do,” he added.
“A producer’s job is to make a star, a director and a studio feel good.”
However, those priorities in recent years have changed per di Bonaventura due to “the largely corporatization (with studios). There’s a breakdown in the utter trust that you’re a producer.”
“The producer has traditionally been the first person in and last person out on a production; the guardians of the pic’s DNA,...

Paramount Pictures held a panel for Transformers One at the San Diego Comic-Con earlier today and we can now share the epic new trailer and poster for the movie.
Perhaps the biggest news to come out of Hall H is the fact Steve Buscemi will voice Starscream. Jon Hamm, meanwhile, is Sentinel Prime and Laurence Fishburne will play Alpha Trion.
The crowd also cheered when it was confirmed that Transformers One will feature no human characters. Finally!
"If we did this as a live-action movie, it would probably cost $500 million," Transformers One producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura told fans. "What has been tricky in live-action is that every time a robot talks, it costs a lot of money. In animation, you can have them build out their character."

Paramount/Hasbro Entertainment dropped the second trailer for “Transformers One” July 25, following its San Diego Comic-Con premiere. The first animated feature reboot from director Josh Cooley (“Toy Story 4”) explores the untold origin story of Autobots on planet Cybertron before Michael Bay’s post-apocalyptic live-action franchise. We learn about the early friendship between Orion Pax (Chris Hemsworth) and D-16 (Brian Tyree Henry) prior to becoming bitter enemies as the legendary Optimus Prime and infamous Megatron.
Orion and D-16 are hard-working, frustrated miners, who drill underground for Energon (the source of energy storage and power generation) during a sustained drought. However, they dream of joining the elite team of Autobots led by Sentinel Prime (Jon Hamm). What Cooley brings to the franchise through animation is greater emotion, humor, and stylization, thanks to the talented team at Ilm (led by VFX supervisor Frazer Churchill and animation supervisor Rob Coleman) and an appealing voice cast,...

San Diego Comic-Con is just getting underway in sunny southern California, and one of the major day-one panels is bringing a new sneak peak at "Transformers One." If you're tired of so-so live-action "Transformers" flicks, don't worry: "Transformers One" is set to offer something totally different from the Michael Bay "Transformers" films, "Bumblebee," and the like. Namely, it's being advertised as the first-ever totally computer-animated "Transformers" film, and while that could be a good or bad thing depending on the quality of the CGI in question, the filmmakers behind the new movie clearly put a lot of work into these visuals.
The first trailer for "Transformers One" dropped in April, and it did a great job convincing anyone who might be on the fence about yet another Transformers story that this one's a standout. As /Film's Devin Meenan put it, the movie looks like a "a breezy and colorful animated...

Form up and roll out! Paramount Animation is turning the ignition key of San Diego Comic-Con 2024 for a Transformers One panel to start this year’s celebration of superheroes, comic books, film, television, and more! The annual event returns to form after years of Covid-19 cancelations, Hollywood strikes, and major studios bowing out of the show in the final hours. I would say fans are in for a breath of fresh air, but if you’ve ever been to San Diego Comic-Con, you know that’s a false promise. Remember to wear your deodorant, friends. It will be a packed show, and the gradual heat death of California won’t do anyone any favors.
As a part of the panel, Paramount Animation debuted a new Transformers One trailer, which you can see in the player above. Meanwhile, a new poster for the film is at the bottom of this article.

Skibidi Toilet. YouTube‘s #1 trending topic of 2023. The cultural phenomenon that, at one point, was raking in 3 billion views per month on YouTube alone.
And, soon, maybe Hollywood’s next big cinematic universe?
If Michael Bay has his way, it will be.
For the uninitiated, Skibidi Toilet absolutely skyrocketed to popularity last summer. It’s a series of short, lo-fi, computer-generated videos set in a world where a vast army of toilets with heads in them face off against a rival force of characters with things like TVs, CCTV cameras, and megaphones for heads. It’s made by self-taught Russian animator Alexey Gerasimov, and first went live in February 2023.
Since then, Gerasimov has produced 76 installments set in his ever-expanding fictional world, and together they’ve generated over 65 billion views across platforms, including on his chart-topping YouTube channel DaFuq!?Boom!, where he has a cool 43 million subscribers.

Updated with latest: San Diego Comic-Con released the full schedule for its 2024 edition, which kicks off Thursday and runs July 25-28. The annual confab is officially centered at the San Diego Convention Center, but in reality it invades the city with its army of comics, genre, movie and TV fans and cosplayers looking for the latest news.
Following a sleepy Comic-Con last year thanks to the Hollywood strikes, this year is expected to return to its usual crazy, especially with Marvel Studios back in Hall H for a pair of events: a Thursday panel devoted to Deadpool & Wolverine on the same day it opens in theaters, and a Saturday evening showcase breaking down what’s going on the the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Other marquee film and TV series that have now set panels for Comic-Con include everything from Transformers One and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power...

According to Deadline, Apple has just acquired a new sci-fi after arising as the victor in a bidding war. The new sci-fi film in question is The Corsair Code, which will be adapted by Jonathan Topper from his own short story. Chris Hemsworth has also been attached as the star of the film. Topper had brought the project to Hemsworth and his producing partner Ben Grayson. Both Hemsworth and Grayson will be producing the film through their company, Wild State, while Apple is the studio that backs it.
The plot is currently being kept under wraps. However, it is being described as “a high-octane, sci-fi mystery adventure.” Topper is no stranger to TV as he already has collaborated with Apple on the series Your Friends and Neighbors as the creator and showrunner. That show is currently in production with Jon Hamm starring in the series and also taking on executive producing duties.

Despite toymaker Hasbro’s recent shift away from film and TV production, CEO Chris Cocks touted the upcoming release of Transformers One during the company’s second-quarter earnings call Thursday.
After a lull following last year’s Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, retail sales tied to the franchise are expected to rise in the weeks leading up to the new installment’s September 20 release by Paramount. Transformers One, an animated origin story, generated positive buzz after premiering as a work-in-progress at the Annency animation fest in June.
“Every indication we have from early screenings and tracking is that that movie is going to be a real fan favorite, with some nice legs in families,” Cocks said. “We think it will sell a lot of toys, as Transformers movies tend to have done.”

Michael Bay could be going from Transformers to toilets as Paramount makes plans to adapt the Skibidi series of viral YouTube videos.
If some recent quotes from Paramount Pictures president Adam Goodman are anything to go by, Transformers and Armageddon director Michael Bay could be a couple of years away from making a movie about a series of YouTube videos about toilets.
First uploaded in February 2023, Skibidi Toilet quickly became the most watched videos on YouTube, launching an entire series of follow-up clips, fanmade games and assorted memes.
Speaking to Variety's Strictly Business podcast, Goodman said his studio is “in talks” with Skibidi Toilet creator Alexey Gerasimov, adding that Michael Bay is ‘working very closely’ with the 23 year-old on ideas for a potential film or TV show.
Said Goodman, “I will say that Michael and Jeffrey Beecroft, who’s his longtime production designer and a colleague of his that’s...

Having just starred in George Miller's action epic Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and with Transformers One already well on its way, Aussie actor Chris Hemsworth could be forgiven for taking a moment to catch his breath over the summer. But before we've even had chance to see his take on Optimus Prime in Josh Cooley's Autobot origin story, the Thor star has already put another buzzy project in his pipeline. Per Deadline's reporting, Apple Original Films has won a hotly contested bid for The Corsair Code, an original sci-fi movie set to be led by Hemsworth.
Based on a short story by The Adam Project scribe Jonathan Tropper, who will also pen the screenplay for this one, plot details about The Corsair Code are closely guarded at present. For now, all we actually know about it is that it's being described as a "high-octane, sci-fi mystery adventure.

What’s more surprising: the recent news that Michael Bay is turning the surreal and massively popular YouTube series “Skibidi Toilet” into a movie and television franchise, or the fact Tina Fey and her writers room never thought to have Tracy Jordan do something similarly insane?
When the Georgian YouTuber Alexey Gerasimov first started posting bizarro videos that he created using the popular sandbox video game Garry’s Mod in early 2023, members of the generations that made it through elementary school without making most of their formative memories in front of an iPad screen gawked at the outrageous view counts that each “Skibidi Toilet” video racked up in a startlingly short amount of time. Today, each new “Skibidi Toilet” release attracts tens of millions of clicks from kids old enough to navigate a touch screen but young enough to find a singing head twisting around in a toilet bowl to be peak content — thus,...

Yeah… you read that right. Veteran director Michael Bay, known for his Transformers franchise and explosive movies, is reportedly going to direct a TV show and a film about Skibidi Toilet.

Gen Alpha is most familiar with the concept of Skibidi Toilet. Being a YouTube series, the shorts feature a battle between human-headed toilets and humanoid characters equipped with electronic devices.

It’s a bit hard to describe the kind of videos and shorts that Alexey Gerasimov posts on his YouTube. Nonetheless, the series found worldwide fame and love by Gen Alpha and became known as Skibidi Toilet.

The first Transformers One reactions rolled out yesterday evening and, as we first reported on Toonado.com, they're overwhelmingly positive. In fact, we haven't been able to find a single negative comment and all signs point to this exceeding the expectations of Transformers fans.
Lots of comparisons are made to the 1980s adventures we know led to many of you falling in love with these characters as children and, despite replacing the legendary Peter Cullen, Chris Hemsworth receives the lion's share of praise for his take on Optimus Prime.
The story, animation, and general look and feel all appear to be a win as well and this might just be a sleeper hit when it opens in September.
Here are just a handful of the most noteworthy Transformers One reactions...

As if it wasn’t ubiquitous enough as digital video shorts or games, “Skibidi Toilet” may be headed for a future as long-form content, too.
The controversial animated internet sensation is being developed for TV and film treatment by director Michael Bay and former Paramount Pictures president Adam Goodman, who sat last week for an exclusive interview about their plans for Skibidi on the latest episode of Variety’s “Strictly Business” podcast.
“We are absolutely in talks right now, both on the television side and the earliest conversations right now on the film side,” Goodman said. “But it’s not a be-all, end-all for us.”
That Goodman is even presenting migrating Skibidi IP to TV or film as an option is a testament to the audience size the property has amassed on YouTube and Roblox, where the monetization opportunity is ample. As a new Variety Intelligence Platform data analysis makes clear,...

Steven Spielberg is known for being one of the most talented and respected figures in Hollywood. He has been a part of some of the most critically acclaimed films of all time, making him a timeless icon in the industry. Since success brings forth influence as well, it can be assumed that he has a lot of power in the film industry.

Although he has mostly used it for the right reasons, he also has a reputation for being ruthless when pushed. Megan Fox famously experienced the brunt of this trait. However, many believe Spielberg to also be the reason behind Shia Labeouf’s professional shortcomings. However, some would like to disagree.

This article appears in the new issue of Den Of Geek magazine. You can read all of our magazine stories here.
Everybody knows Optimus Prime and Megatron are arch nemeses, and Transformers One director Josh Cooley used this knowledge to his advantage when making the fully animated origin story. The film is set on Cybertron before the Autobot-Decepticon Civil War ravaged the planet, and Optimus and Megatron—young miners called Orion Pax and D-16, respectively—are the furthest thing from mortal enemies: they’re brothers in arms.
“The audience knows that they’re going to become enemies, so I wanted them to start their arc as best friends,” Cooley tells Den of Geek magazine. “If we can get you to love these two characters together in act one, then you’re really going to feel it when the relationship falls apart.”

The Transformers franchise is one of the best-known mecha franchises of all time. What started off as a series of action figures and a Japanese-American animated series became one of the most popular brands in the world and one of the best 80s series ever. Since its debut, numerous revivals and reboots have been made, including video games and a live-action movie series that started off strongly but began declining at one point.
The franchise managed to revitalize itself a bit and now, it is heading into a somewhat different direction, as a CGI feature-length animated movie, Transformers One, will officially be released on September 13, 2024 in theaters around the world, and it will be a brand new experience for fans of the live-action Transformers series.

Transformers revs up its engines and zooms back in time with Transformers One, diving into the roots that started it all. This prequel, although animated, is part of the same universe as the live-action series, and stars none other than two of the biggest of the MCU stars, Scarlett Johansson and Chris Hemsworth.

Transformers One is finally exploring Cybertron’s untold history, giving fans the origin story they’ve craved for years on the big screen.

We’re used to seeing Chris Hemsworth’s handsome mug on the big screen, but his next role finds him voicing Orion Pax/Optimus Prime in Transformers One. It’s something of a departure for Hemsworth, and the actor spoke with Den of Geek about what drew him to the animated movie.
“This being an origin story is what appealed to me. It isn’t a remake; it’s not a reimagining. It shows the early years of these characters, whom we only knew later in their lives,” Hemsworth said. “This film delves into friendships and relationships you have with people when you’re vulnerable and afraid. It talks about what bravery really means and how good and evil aren’t as simplistic as they might first appear. We make mistakes, and we learn from them. But ultimately, we are defined by the decisions that we make.“
