Did you need another reason to get excited aboutStar Wars: Rogue One? Because you have one. Or maybe it will just be another thing standing in the way between you and a newStar Warsmovie, but regardless of how you see it, this is happening.Michael Bayhimself has confirmed that the first teaser forTransformers: The Last Knightis arriving withRogue Oneon December 16.
The official TransformersTwitteraccount recently posted a video featuring directorMichael Bay, who has been promising the teaser for the movie will be coming soon. In the video, he finally confirms that the first trailer forTransformers: The Last Knightwill be attached toRogue One: A Star Wars Story. Here is what he had to say.
“I want to tell you, because I’ve been reading you comments, the teaser is coming. December 16th on Star Wars. So look forward to it.”
We recently got to see some choice bits of footage in an IMAX preview video that was released, celebrating the relationship between IMAX and theTransformers franchiseas a whole. But after a whole lot of set videos, photos and weird, seemingly disjointed bits of information, this trailer forTransformers: The Last Knightcan’t come soon enough for fans. Even those of us who aren’t necessarily diehard fans of the franchise or those who have lost faith, especially since recent installments have really taken a dip in quality, are at the least curious how this movie is going to come together. At this point, it sounds totally bananas.
Transformers: The Last Knightremains a big mystery in terms of actual plot details and story, but the things we do know and what has been confirmed make it seem like this is going to be absolutely insane, even by the already insane standards of aTransformersmovie. We know that it will involve King Arthur, Merlin, Nazis andWinston Churchill, in addition to giant transforming alien robots. Yes, these are all real things that will be in this movie. How or why all of them are required for aTransformersmovie remains to be seen, but hopefully, this first trailer will help shed some light on the mystery. Or maybe not. Either way, the trailer is coming.
This is the fifth movie inTransformersfranchise, all of which of have beendirectedbyMichael Bay. We will have to see if he can bounce back fromTransformers: Age of Extinctionand leave the franchise in a good place, or if this will just be another messy entry.Mark Wahlberg,Tyrese Gibson,John TurturroandJosh Duhamelare returning forTransformers: The Last Knightand they will be joined byIsabela Moner,Anthony Hopkinsand franchise stablePeter Cullenas the voice of Optimus Prime.Transformers: The Last Knightis set to hit theaters on June 27, 2025.
