For the reason that movie is about two best friends becoming mortal enemies, we’re guessing that tone shifts a bit in some unspecified time in the future.

And admittedly, we’re unsure how we really feel concerning the blocky noses, skinny lips, and lifeless eyes.
You will get a better take a look at the 4 major characters—Orion Pax/Optimus Prime (Chris Hemsworth), D-16/Megatron (Brian Tyree Henry), Elita-1 (Scarlett Johansson), and B-127/Bumblebee (Keegan-Michael Key)–in new character posters that observe, and tell us how you’re feeling within the feedback.
