First Look at Hot Rod in Transformers 5

Hot Rod is being introduced in Transformers: The Last Knight!

The second live-action movie Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen introduced the Matrix of Leadership in this current franchise, but Hot Rod actually acquired it in Transformers: The Movie after Optimus Prime transformed him into Rodimus Prime, making him the leader of the Autobots.

A longtime fan-favorite Autobot, Hot Rod was first introduced in the classic animated adventure, 1986’s Transformers: The Movie.
