Though the movies do have their share of defenders and (mostly) perform very well at the box office, it's probably fair to say that the Transformers franchise wasn't exactly the most well-regarded - prior to the release of Bumblebee, at least..
The 2018 adventure received great reviews and served as a relaunch of sorts, even though it didn't particularly contradict anything that happened in the previous instalments.
With director Steven Caple Jr. (Creed II; The Land) on board, Paramount Pictures will be hoping Transformers: Rise of the Beasts will be able to continue down that positive path.
The first trailer was generally well-received by fans, and we'll get a look at some more footage this Sunday during the Super Bowl. The studio has now confirmed that a brand-new promo will air just before kick-off.
Rise of the Beasts will star Anthony Ramos (In the Heights; Hamilton), Dominique Fishback (The Deuce; Judas and the Black Messiah), Luna Lauren Vélez (Dexter; Ugly Betty), and Tobe Nwigwe, with Peter Cullen (Transformers; The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh) set to return as the voice of Optimus Prime and Ron Perlman (Hellboy; Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them) as the voice of Optimus Primal.
The next Transformers movie is set to hit theaters on June 9, 2023.
