Paramount Pictures brought Transformers to San Diego Comic-Con’s Hall H today. Well, actually, they brought a Transformer: Bumblebee. Director Travis Knight (Kubo and the Two Strings) and stars Hailee Steinfeld, John Cena, and Jorge Lendeborg Jr. were in town to talk about why this new Transformers movie is very different from the previous entries in the series.
The film, which is set in 1987, sees Bumblebee teaming up with Steinfeld’s character (and returning to his familiar Volkswagen Beetle form from the old days rather than the more modern Camaro). The pair will be dealing with some Decepticons, including Shatter, voiced by Angela Bassett, who turns into a red Plymouth Satellite, and Dropkick, voiced by Justin Theroux, who transforms into a blue AMC Javelin.
