Transformers One, the animated prequel to the hit film series, is out in cinemas now, but what songs are on the soundtrack? Read on for all the info.
The latest entry in the franchise based on the Hasbro toy line, the film is set on Cybertron, the home planet of the Transformers, and it depicts the origins of the relationship between Optimus Prime and Megatron.

Transformers One is a standalone film, separate from the saga that began with Michael Bay’s 2007 original film. Bay directed four further entries in the series. A spinoff feature, Bumblebee, arrived in 2018, starring Hailee Steinfeld and John Cena, and a 2023 sequel to that film arrived in 2023 in the form of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
The new film arrived in UK cinemas on Friday (October 11), having already been released in the US and elsewhere in September.
