The new trailer for Transformers' yellow automobile, Bumblebee, is out and it's already taking Transformers fans back in time.
Starring Optimus Prime, it also features Shockwave, Soundwave, Ravage, and Starscream in their original 1980s designs.
It tells the story of a waging war between Autobots and Decepticons, with human civilization once again trapped in the middle. It's up to Bumblebee to prevent the Decepticons from wreaking pure havoc on Earth, according to Prime.
The official Twitter handle of the movie unveiled the trailer, writing, "This Christmas, every hero has a beginning. Watch the new #BumblebeeMovie trailer now."
