First Look: Hailee Steinfeld Stars In First Trailer For BUMBLEBEE

By  | 

“A driver don’t pick the car. The car pick the driver.”

Hitting theater Christmas 2018 is Paramount Pictures’ BUMBLEBEE starring Hailee Steinfeld and John Cena. Check out the first trailer from the upcoming movie.

There’s a lot going on in this sentimental and nicely cut trailer, including the shot of what appears to be Decepticon Starscream (G1). The voiceover of Bernie Mac as Bobby Bolivia (TRANSFORMERS 2007) at the start of the trailer was a nice emotional touch.

Transformer fans have been waiting a long time for a stand-alone Bumblebee movie and from this first trailer for the prequel, director Travis Knight (KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS, CORALINE) looks like he’ll deliver an emotional story of a girl and her Autobot.  I can’t wait for December!

Additionally the film’s score is composed by Dario Marianelli. The previous TRANSFORMER movies were from composer Steve Jablonsky.

On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie (Hailee Steinfeld), on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary, yellow VW bug.

The film opens in theatres December 21st, 2018.

BUMBLEBEE is produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Tom DeSanto & Don Murphy, Michael Bay. Steven Spielberg is one of the Executive Producers.

Huge passion for film scores, lives for the Academy Awards, loves movie trailers. That is all.
