Ben 10 vs The Universe
Calling all Ben 10 superfans – this is the movie you’ve been waiting for!
Ten-year-old Ben is getting a little bored with all the day-to-day hero work when he suddenly gets news of a planet-destroying meteor heading straight towards Earth. But when his race to stop the disaster lands him in entirely the wrong place, he’s mistaken for his nemesis, supervillain Vilgax. Now, it’s up to Ben to get out of there, and save Earth from the real danger.
Ben is voiced by multiple Annie Award nominee Tara Strong (Teen Titans Go!) and the movie also features David Kaye (Avengers Assemble and the Transformers animated franchise’s Megatron), Annie winner John DiMaggio (Futurama’s Bender), and Greg Cipes (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Michelangelo), with Yuri Lowenthal, the original series’ teenage Ben 10 and the voice of Spider-Man himself, as Vilgax.
