Everyone can relax. We now have transformed Pete Davidson into an Autobot.

"The name's Mirage. Come on! Give it a little tap," Davidson's Mirage says in his debut in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, as revealed in a new trailer that rolled in during the Super Bowl on Sunday.

It looks like the 'bot's big trick is that it can create illusions — or mirages. In the Heights star Anthony Ramos appears as Noah Diaz, an ex-military Brooklynite with a knack for electronics, is stuck in the driver's seat inside Mirage as the Autobot creates identical decoys to hide them from the ensuing cops.

"Relax! I'm Mirage, remember?" Mirage says later in the Big Game spot.

Mirage takes the form of a Porsche 911, which is why Paramount partnered with Porsche on the Super Bowl ad.

Director Steven Caple Jr. described the character as "the rebel in the group" and "more of an outlaw" who will be causing "a little bit trouble with Optimus Prime and the rest of the squad." Producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura called him as "anti-authority."
