The movie follows the events of last year’s Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, which ended with Anthony Ramos’ Noah or “Sonic”, getting quite the generous job offer from the Joes with healthcare for his ailing little brother.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Mark Vahradian, Michael Bay, Tom DeSanto and Don Murphy are producing. Steven Spielberg and Hasbro Entertainment will executive produce.
Other than Chris Hemsworth who is in talks to star, the cast has not been set yet, though we can expect to see Antony Ramos and Peter Cullen reprise their roles as Noah Diaz and Optimus Prime respectively.
