==Summary==
Megatron is the leader of the Decepticons and the overarching antagonist in the live-action Transformers film series.
Megatron used to be commander of the Defense Force, but became corrupted by listening to the ideals of The Fallen and declared a war to gain control of the Allspark. He would lead his Decepticons against Optimus Prime and his Autobots.
He would later be rebuilt as Galvatron by a company known as KSI, only to return as Megatron once again in The Last Knight.
