Before getting into the story, let’s discuss the Terrorcons. They are a group of five Decepticons who are under Galvatron’s command. In the classic animated series and comics, the Terrorcons transform into nightmarish creatures and can combine to form Abominus.

In the five live-action movies we had got from Michael Bay, it had been a war between Autobots and Decepticons, with humans playing allies and enemies in the mix. However, We will now be seeing Maximals, Predacons, and Terrorcons and a massive adventure that takes you across Brooklyn, New York, and Peru in 1994. The story takes place seven year’s after 2018’s Bumblebee. 

We will see the Beast Wars for the first time in live-action. Ron Perlman has been cast as the voice for Optimus Primal, the gorilla Transformer and leader of the Maximals. The movie stars Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback in the lead. They will play Noah, an ex-military electronics genius, and Elena, an artifacts researcher respectively.

Who all will appear?

The second photo showed the Terrorcons, with Scourge being the main villain. Next to Scourge is Nightbird and an unidentified GM C4500 Topkick tow-truck.

We will soon see the beast Transformers once the first trailer is out.
