Hasbro Inc. announced today a special cinema experience to celebrate four decades of the Transformers franchise with Till All Are One: Transformers 40th Anniversary Event. The theatrical event will provide limited screenings of episodes from the classic 1984 animated series The Transformers in select cinemas across the U.S., U.K. and Mexico, along with select territories in Europe, Latin America and Asia starting on Wednesday, May 15.
Tickets for the Transformers 40th Anniversary Event will go on sale at Transformers40thCinemaEvent.
This special cinema experience will take fans back to the very beginning as Transformers original voice-over talent, including Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime) and Frank Welker (Megatron), team up for the first time in decades to revisit their characters and recreate the enduring magic of the classic 1984 animated series. An exclusive behind-the-scenes table read appears on a split screen for the pilot episode, “More Than Meets the Eye, Part 1,” followed by a traditional screening of the next three episodes of the series. Fans can both experience the original Saturday morning cartoon on the big screen and get a glimpse of its evolution with a sneak peek of the new season of the original animated kids’ series Transformers: EarthSpark.
“For decades, the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons has come to life in movies, comic books, innovative toys, live experiences and digital media, elevating the Transformers brand to a global powerhouse franchise with millions of fans around the world. To celebrate 40 years, we’re bringing fans back to where it all started,” said Alyse D’Antuono, VP Global Franchise Strategy & Management, Action Brands at Hasbro. “The Transformers animated series captured the imagination of fans of all ages when it premiered in 1984, introducing a timeless battle between good and evil fueled by action and adventure. Ask any longtime fan, and they can probably tell you where they were when they first heard Optimus Prime’s iconic phrase ‘Autobots, roll out,’ or what it felt like when they first converted a bot character into its alt mode. With exclusive content featuring the series’ original voice actors, this theatrical event is truly for our fans and invites audiences to experience the fun that started it all.”
Distributed by Trafalgar Releasing, the global leader in Event Cinema distribution, this is the second time the company has partnered with Hasbro, Inc., following Peppa’s Cinema Party that screened in cinemas worldwide in February 2024.
