Bumblebee's origin story follows the fan favorite as he gets sent to Earth in 1987.

Throughout the movie franchise, Bumblebee has been known for not having a voice. Instead, he speaks using a radio dial. But here, there's a familiar actor who briefly lends Bee his vocals at the movie's start.

The "Maze Runner" star, Dylan O'Brien, provides Bee with his voice before he transforms into the lovable yellow Volkswagen Beetle.

O'Brien was seriously injured in 2016 while shooting for the final "Maze Runner" film was taking place. The actor questioned whether or not he wanted to be in a movie again or end his career.
