The first official trailer for Transformers' spinoff Bumblebee made its debut on Tuesday (June 5) morning and now more than ever, we can't wait for the movie to come out.
The two-minute tease stars actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld. If you're as much of a Transformers fanatic as we are, then the trailer will definitely get you excited for the movie franchise's very first spinoff to get here. In the beginning of the clip, Steinfeld sees an interesting, different type of car in a junkyard that almost immediately gets her attention. It's a Volkswagen Beetle... which turns out to be Bumblebee.
The upcoming movie -- which is a prequel that's set in the late 1980s -- is the first Transformers movie that will not be directed by Michael Bay. Kubo and the Two Strings director and ParaNorman producer/animator Travis Knight is the new one. Christina Hodson wrote the movie. Plus, John Cena is also starring in it.
"When I was a kid, I spent hours playing with Transformers toys and making up stories about these amazing characters, so it's been an incredible adventure to come to set every day to tell the story of who Bumblebee is and why we love him," Knight said on IG about the new movie. See that below.
