While the Transformers film series has dominated the Box Office with every release, surprisingly the franchise has never ventured into the renowned Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con. However, this streak of no-shows will be brought to an end this month
According to a recent report by Deadline; the upcoming spin-off, which focuses on an individual Transformer rather than a plethora, Bumblebee will be taking centre stage during Paramount's Hall H panel at the upcoming Comic-Con event - which begins on July 19th.
Bumblebee's dedicated panel will take place on Friday the 20th of July at 5pm PDT and run to 6. The film's talented cast will be in attendance to discuss the hotly anticipated solo movie Those attending the panel include: Hailee Steinfeld, John Cena, Jorge Lendeborg Jr. and director Travis Knight.
Though Paramount's arguably biggest upcoming release is that of Mission: Impossible - Fallout, there will surprisingly not be a panel for the tentpole, Tom Cruise-lead film. Instead Paramount has decided to set attendees' attention solely on the charming Transformers spin-off - whether that's a good sign for Bumblebee or a bad sign for Mission: Impossible is up to you to decide.
What do you think about this announcement? Does Bumblebee being the franchise's first endeavour into Hall H enhance your confidence in the spin-off?
On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee the Autobot seeks refuge in a junkyard in a small California beach town. Charlie, on the brink of turning 18 years old and trying to find her place in the world, soon discovers the battle-scarred and broken Bumblebee. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns that this is no ordinary yellow Volkswagen.
Bumblebee will be arriving in theatres on the 21st of December.
