Ten aliens. One watch. Endless responsibility.In this high-stakes, live-action reimagining of the beloved animated franchise, Tom Holland stars as Ben Tennyson, a bright but impulsive young adult who stumbles upon the Omnitrix—a mysterious alien device that bonds to his DNA, allowing him to transform into ten powerful alien forms.
As Earth becomes the target of intergalactic warlords hunting the Omnitrix, Ben is forced out of hiding and into battle. With the help of his tech-savvy cousin Gwen (Millie Bobby Brown) and ex-Plumber agent Grandpa Max, Ben must master the alien powers and uncover the truth behind the device’s origin.
Enter Giancarlo Esposito as Vilgax, a cold, calculating conqueror who will stop at nothing to retrieve the Omnitrix—and use it to rewrite the laws of the universe.
From high-speed alien chases in Tokyo to zero-gravity brawls aboard derelict space stations, Ben 10 (2025) fuses teen sci-fi with heart, humor, and galaxy-sized action. Director Shawn Levy (Free Guy, Stranger Things) brings vibrant energy and emotion to the adventure.
