AUTOBOTS® with CHEVY BOW TIES Make Local Screen Debut
MANILA, Philippines - Five Chevrolet-based characters – including four all-new characters – are featured in Dreamworks Pictures and Paramount Pictures release, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”
Chevrolet is thrilled again to be part of one of the most anticipated movies this year. The Transformers sequel promises to be even more exciting and thrilling than the first film as the battle between heroic AUTOBOTS and evil DECEPTICONS reaches another level. The awesome new AUTOBOT characters will give audiences a first look into the future of Chevrolet vehicles.
Along with the Camaro that’s reprising its role in the new film, the other Chevrolet models to be seen on the big screen are new to moviegoers.
SIDESWIPE takes the form of a sleek, vision concept dreamed up by the Chevrolet Corvette designers. The design is influenced by the original Stingray race car, introduced in 1959, but also draws on Corvette heritage cues from other generations. It brings them together in a futuristic shape that seems to be equal parts race car and space ship.
The Chevrolet Beat and Trax-based characters, SKIDS and MUDFLAP, remain faithful to their concept designs introduced at the 2007 New York Auto Show – although each wears new paint and other exterior accessories. And while they may be small cars, when they turn into fighting AUTOBOTS®, they pack a big punch. The Beat concept will make it to production and will be hitting showrooms in 2010 in the form of the all-new Chevrolet Spark, a mini car with attitude.
The other new AUTOBOT®, JOLT, appears in the production form of Chevrolet’s Volt extended-range electric vehicle. With the capability of up to 60 km of pure electric propulsion, plus hundreds of more kilometers with the assistance from its Voltec powertrain system, the real-life Volt will change driving soon.
Of course, the AUTOBOT® team isn’t complete without BUMBLEBEE, the yellow Chevrolet Camaro based on the new ‘SS’ model which is more stylish and powerful than ever.
DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures present, in association with Hasbro, a Bonaventura Pictures production, a Tom DeSanto/Don Murphy Production, a Michael Bay film, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” starring Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Dunn, Julie White, John Benjamin Hickey, Ramon Rodriguez, Isabel Lucas, Glenn Morshower and John Turturro.
