Care of the United International Pictures Philippines Facebook page, we’ve got a new poster for the upcoming Bumblebee live action movie to share with you. This poster, much like the Japanese poster we saw recently, has Bumblebee and Hailee Steinfeld’s character front and center, except unlike the Japanese poster which had them in silhouette, this new poster shows the pair against the night sky, illuminated by the lights of the city, and seemingly in conversation. The poster plays on the same “iron giant” approach and the species-crossing friendship of the pair which is being touted as the center of the new movies’ story.
It is promising that the posters are showing an altogether more grounded story that the last few live action movies which arguably lost their way in such stakes.
The tagline on the poster reads “Every adventure has a beginning”, which sells the idea of this being a prequel to the other Transformers movies, less than a reboot.
Check out the poster attached to this post.

Not to stray too much off topic but I don't agree that Prime is a psycho either. It's a term that people just throw around too loosely. Brutal? Yes. Savage? Absolutely. Dishonorable? At times, yes.
Honor til the end, and all that.

Movie Prime: “geez, you yell “give me your face” one time in the heat of battle and everyone thinks your a psychopath for life…”

Man I’m really hoping these two weirdly fall in love with each other. That’d be so cute.

not when "someone" gets in my lane without using their blinker

Certainly by comparison, yes.

He leaves that action to movie Prime.

Not when you're in a battle that's life or death, no.
It's not like he is just going and hunting others down and killing them in "cold blood" as it were.

Tearing someone's arms off and breaking their spine is a bit psychotic don't you think

Has a serious ET vibe. I dig it.

I'm concerned this is going to be more ET than Transformers. They already did the story twice where an unsuspecting person gets a Transformer….

It's like people throw words around without any meaning behind them.

Really loving the poster, and the strong California vibes the background gives off. I'm trying to keep my expectations reasonable, but stuff like this makes it really hard to avoid the hype.

Great poster while keeping it simple.

Possible alternate, also textless & highres (I'd linked both of these in the movies poster thread already):
