Transformers: Rise of the Beasts—Yeoh & Davidson Get the Power-Up!
Michelle Yeoh and Pete Davidson have just joined the cast of Paramount’s upcoming blockbuster, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. That means the sky’s the limit, and so are the robot voices.
Sneak Peek: Voices on the Move
- Pete Davidson (28) will be the voice behind Autobot Mirage, the sleek robot that looks like it could jump off a comic book page.
- Michelle Yeoh will lend her voice to Maximal Airazor, a fierce robotic fighter who’s ready to conquer the skies.
Director Steven Caple Jr. posted a behind‑the‑scenes video to Instagram showing Davidson in the recording booth. In the caption, he read:
“Pete Davidson in disguise. @transformersmovie cast is amazing, man. Sneak peek of Pete voicing Mirage and @michelleyeoh_official blessing us as the voice of Airazor #rotb 2023 [sic].”
Release Update: A Year’s Delay, But Here We Come!
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts was pushed back by a full year, so the premiere is now set for June 9, 2023 (instead of June 24). No one likes being delayed, but hey—what’s more exciting than a 1994 time machine with a robot extravaganza?
New York Meets Machu Picchu
- The film’s timeline places the action in 1994.
- Major scenes unfold in New York and the Peruvian wonder, Machu Picchu.
- Despite these epic locations, the story’s heart remains in Brooklyn.
Cast Line‑up
- Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback headline the human team.
- Ron Perlman returns to voice Optimus Primal, continuing his legacy from the Power of the Primes animated series.
Get ready for a clash of robotic tribes: the Beast Wars allies will face off against the ruthless Predacons. It’s a showdown that forces Autobots and Maximals to unite—or get eaten for breakfast.
Anthony Ramos Gives a Glimpse of His Character
When asked what fans can anticipate from his role as the ex‑military electronics expert Noah, Ramos shared:
“He’s all about taking care of the people he loves. He comes from a lower‑income home, so Noah’s always hustling.
The one thing I love about Noah is his tenacity and heart, and his will to never quit, in spite of all the crazy stuff life throws at him.
Then, it’s amazing to see his journey when we venture out into the world, when the humans meet the bots and things start to happen.”
What’s Next?
Prepare yourselves for a rollercoaster of nostalgia and novelties. With a stellar voice cast and an action‑packed storyline, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is shaping up to be a blockbuster that’s as much about your heart as it is about your car. Stay tuned, buckle up, and watch the robots roll out of your screens!
