Fathom Events is teaming up with Hasbro to bring The Transformers: The Movie back to theaters next month for two days only for special 35th anniversary screenings. I remember seeing the 1986 animated classic with my brothers at our local theater during it’s initial run, so I’m really looking forward to leaning into the nostalgia to see it again the way it is meant to be seen on the big screen!
A remastered version of the film with new exclusive content will be showing at select theaters nationwide on Sunday, Sept. 26 and Tuesday, Sept. 28 at 7 p.m. local times. If you need a little refresher The Transformers: The Movie follows the war between the Autobots and Decepticons that raged in the original 80’s animated series.
Featuring an all-star cast that includes Eric Idle (Monty Python), Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek), Judd Nelson (The Breakfast Club), and the legendary, Orson Welles (Citizen Kane), the movie introduces a new threat in Unicron, a massive planet that consumes other worlds. Unicron has its sights set on Cybertron, with the Transformers' only hope resting with the Autobot Matrix of Leadership.
