Ever wondered what that kid with the awesome watch is up to these days? We're diving into the wild world of Ben 10, charting his alien-morphing adventures from beginning to… well, ongoing!
Get ready for a blast from the past (and a peek into the future) as we explore all the Ben 10 series and movies in the order they landed on our screens. It's hero time, folks!
The OG: Ben 10 (2005-2008)
It all started with a summer road trip. Young Ben Tennyson discovers the Omnitrix, a watch-like device that lets him transform into ten different aliens. Cue the theme song!
Alongside his cousin Gwen and Grandpa Max, Ben battled villains like Vilgax, who just wouldn't give up on getting that Omnitrix. We all remember wanting to be Ben, right?
Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix (2007)
This animated movie filled in some blanks during the original series. It had Ben racing against time to save the Omnitrix from self-destruction. Talk about a high-stakes summer vacation!
Ben 10: Race Against Time (2007)
This was our first live-action taste of Ben 10. High school was tough enough, but imagine battling alien invaders and dealing with homework!
Ben 10: Alien Swarm (2009)
Another live-action adventure, this time focusing on nanites and a mysterious girl named Elena. It was a fun departure from the animated style we were used to.
Ben 10: Alien Force (2008-2010)
Five years later, Ben's all grown up. He's ditched the childish antics (mostly) and teams up with Gwen and his former enemy Kevin Levin to face a new threat: the Highbreed invasion.
This series was darker and more mature than the original. It proved Ben 10 could grow with its audience.
Ben 10: Ultimate Alien (2010-2012)
Ben unlocks the Ultimatrix, allowing him to evolve his alien forms into even more powerful versions. This leads to some truly epic battles.
Public opinion turned against Ben, leading to some interesting internal conflicts. It wasn't just about fighting aliens anymore; it was about being a hero.
Ben 10: Omniverse (2012-2014)
A completely new art style threw some people for a loop, but Omniverse brought back the fun and humor of the original. It introduced Rook Blonko, Ben's new Plumber partner.
This series explored Ben's past and filled in gaps in the timeline. The art style may have been different, but the core of Ben 10 remained.
Ben 10 (Reboot) (2016-2021)
A fresh take on the original series, this reboot went back to basics. Ben, Gwen, and Grandpa Max hit the road again for another summer of adventure.
This version was lighter and more comedic, geared towards a younger audience. It gave a whole new generation a chance to discover the world of Ben 10.
Ben 10 Versus the Universe: The Movie (2020)
This movie sees Ben blasted into space! He has to save the earth from an incoming asteroid. Classic Ben 10 shenanigans ensue.
Ben 10: Alien X-Tinction (2021)
A special event that brought together multiple versions of Ben Tennyson from different universes. This was a fan-service extravaganza that celebrated the entire franchise.
Ben 10 (Upcoming)
Warner Bros. Discovery is reportedly developing a new series of Ben 10! There's not much information about it yet, but as always, it promises a new take on the character and the universe that spawned it.
From its humble beginnings to multiple reboots and movies, Ben 10 has remained a beloved franchise. We can't wait to see what alien transformations and adventures await in the future!
