Last week, Transformers fans were so amped to hear anything about he new animated feature. Scarlett Johansson is one of the stars that will help bring Transformers: One to life. Paramount has been leaning even more heavily into animation in recent years. Transformers: One carries that torch in some surprising ways. Collider asked the Avengers star about her time on Cybertron. Johansson was more than excited to be working with Josh Cooley. The unique visual style of Transformers: One is going to surprise a lot of folks out there, according to actress.
“Yes, I’m playing Elita. I’m working with Josh Cooley, who is an incredible writer-director who I adore and have worked creatively with in another capacity,” Johansson previously revealed. “The film doesn’t look like anything I’ve ever seen before, it looks so cool! The texture of it is so awesome. And because Josh wrote it, it just feels very… I don’t know, it’s got a very dramatic feeling about it. It’s funny, but it’s got so much heart to it like all of his stuff does. I think it’s a different way of approaching this IP. I think it stands on its own, it’s pretty exciting.”
