Transformers (film)
Directed by Michael Bay
Produced by Steven Spielberg
Budget $147 million
Transformers is a 2007 live action film based on the Transformers franchise. It stars Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox as teenagers Sam Witwicky and Mikaela Banes, who become embroiled in the war between the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons. Sam has the map to the Allspark, which grants the bearer power over mechanical life. The film also stars Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Jon Voight and John Turturro, as well as Peter Cullen as the voice of Optimus Prime and Hugo Weaving as the voice of Megatron. Cullen, who voiced Optimus in the 1980s cartoon, returned by fan demand.
Producers Don Murphy and Tom DeSanto developed the film, and Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman wrote the script, all aiming for a realistic interpretation of the characters. Michael Bay was convinced by executive producer Steven Spielberg to direct the film despite not being a fan of the series, to make his first family film. His direction led to a new intricate design aesthetic for the computer generated Transformers. Armed with an enormous marketing campaign including comics, toys and tie-in deals, Transformers premiered on June 12, 2007 and opened in the United States on July 2, 2007.
