The highly successful Transformers franchise aims to build upon its existing legacy with its upcoming release, Transformers One. Directed by Josh Cooley, Transformers One takes fans back to the origins of Cybertron’s greatest warriors - Optimus Prime and Megatron.
In the world of cinema, it’s not often that an actor’s admiration for a director's vision is expressed with such enthusiasm and sincerity. Chris Hemsworth, known for his charismatic roles and action-packed performances, couldn’t hold back his praise for Director Cooley’s approach to Transformers One. The actor says he was captivated by Cooley's "unfettered optimism, passion, and enthusiasm" for the project, which, according to Hemsworth, was nothing short of contagious. Highlighting the film's stunning visuals, unique character styles, and meticulously crafted fight scenes, Hemsworth shared how Cooley masterfully balanced action with heartfelt storytelling, turning it into a "hilarious bromance" that keeps the audience entertained until the very end.
Chris Hemsworth said, “Cooley’s unfettered optimism, passion and enthusiasm for this world was contagious, and the amount of knowledge he accumulated in his research was indispensable. The visuals are stunning and action-packed. The colors, the tones, the details all feel fresh and unique. Such complexity was put into designing the fight scenes and developing a distinctive style for each character. It all adds up to a movie that is exciting, fun and wildly entertaining. But Cooley never lost sight of the heart of the story. The point of the story in the director’s eyes always remains two individuals and their parallel journeys of self-discovery. At times it’s a hilarious bromance about two best friends — who end up trying to kill each other. But up until that point, there is a lot of fun to be had”.
