Paramount Pictures rolled out the new Transformers One trailer with a global launch in space, revealing an action-packed look at the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie — and the franchise’s first wholly animated instalment since the original The Transformers: The Movie in 1986.

Set on the planet Cybertron, the prequel unites worker bots Orion Pax (Chris Hemsworth) and D-16 (Brian Tyree Henry), brothers in arms who will eventually transform into Optimus Prime and Megatron: rival leaders of the Autobots and Decepticons.

Transformers One is the first in a potential animated Transformers trilogy about friends-turned-enemies Optimus Prime and Megatron — and what sparks the war between the Autobots and Decepticons that eventually spills over from Cybertron to Earth. Transformers One comes in theatres September 20.
