Michael Bay’s Transformers series kicked off in 2007 with the eponymous film that brought the battle between Autobots and Decepticons to the big screen with groundbreaking special effects and high-octane action sequences. Bay continued to direct four more films in the series, culminating with "Transformers: The Last Knight" in 2017. While these films were polarizing among critics, they achieved significant commercial success and cultivated a dedicated fanbase.
Despite stepping down from the director's chair after "The Last Knight," Bay remained a vital part of the franchise as a producer, influencing the direction and style of subsequent installments.
"Transformers One" is poised to be an animated prequel that delves into the origins of the Transformers, exploring the history of Cybertron and the early days of the conflict between the Autobots and Decepticons. This prequel promises to offer fresh insights into beloved characters and pivotal events that set the stage for the epic saga.
However, this new addition to the franchise complicates the existing timeline. The Bayverse has always been somewhat loose with its continuity, often prioritizing spectacle over strict narrative cohesion. With "Transformers One" exploring a different era, fans are left wondering how it will tie into the established lore and whether it will adhere to the canon established by Bay's films.
