With a brand new cast for a brand new era, Mark Wahlberg and co. usher in a new generation of Transformers films
The age of Transformers has passed. Humans have control of their planet and have cast away the robotic intruders.
The surviving Autobots and Decepticons are forced into hiding by humans looking to hunt them down. After the great battle which left many cities in ashes, but with the Earth still intact, a new wave of human beings rise, who soon attempt to harness powers beyond their control.
As the humans and Transformers refugees bicker amongst themselves over this dangerous power, a far more terrifying force awaits them.
Bye Bye, LeBeouf
After the dismissal of Transformers star Megan Fox, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, the gorgeous Victoria’s Secret model, replaced her. As such, there were no complaints from hot- blooded men.
However, one cannot help but wonder why the popular star of the Transformer movies, Shia LeBeouf, is not starring in the fourth instalment.
Apparently, LeBeouf had declared his gratitude to director Michael Bay but feels that there is no more to explore with his character on the show, Sam. He has also said that he considers himself “Michael Bay-raised” but is looking to focus on films which will help him grow
further as an actor.
“Sweetie, hand me my alien gun.”
