Transformers: Rise of the Beasts adds Michelle Yeoh and Pete Davidson to voice cast

October 12, 2022 by EJ Moreno

The voice cast of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is beginning to take shape with some big names as the franchise’s theatrical return draws near.

Michelle Yeoh will provide the voice of Airazor, and Davidson will voice Mirage. Airazor is a member of the Maximals, the descendants of the Autobots, while Mirage is an Autobot that has previously appeared in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

The upcoming new installment sees Steven Caple Jr. directing with Dominque Fishback and Anthony Ramos set to star in live-action roles. Yeoh and Davidson are among the first to join the voice-acting cast following Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime and Ron Perlman as Optimus Primal.

Rise of the Beasts director Steven Caple Jr. took to Instagram to share the news with two videos from recording sessions with the newly added cast members. Check it out below…

Rise of the Beasts is taking the Transformers franchise back to the 1990s, with the film being set before the Michael Bay-era films took place. In the movie, we’ll be introduced to the Maximals and Terrorcons, two more cybernetic alien parties that will take sides in the Earth-bound battle between Autobots and Decepticons.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is directed by Steven Caple Jr. (Creed II) and features a cast that includes Anthony Ramos, Dominique Fishback, Luna Lauren Velez, and Tobe Nwigwe, along with Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime and Ron Perlman as Optimus Primal.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is set for release on June 9th 2023.
