Transformers-elokuva Bumblebee saatiin Suomeen tammikuun alussa 2019, ja Gamereactorin arvion voi lukea täältä. Siitä lähtien on odoteltu jatkoa liikenteeseen lähteneelle tarinalle, ja vihdoinkin niin on tapahtunut. Seuraavan rainan nimi on Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, joka sijoittuu vuoteen 1994 (eli muutama vuosi Bumblebeen jälkeen).
Mukana nähdään myös Optimus Prime, ja tuotannosta vastaavat Lorenzo Di Bonaventura ja Steven Caple Jr.
"We had somewhat exhausted I would say the battle between Decepticons and Autobots, and certainly, we have explored it in a lot of different ways. How do we find a new set of villains? How do we find a new set of priorities for the villains? And again, saving the world of course is left to the Autobots, and in this case, the Maximals. If you've seen and been a fan of the other movies, you're going to see villains you've never seen before and you're going to see Autobots you've never seen before. You're going to see a lot of elements that we've never done before, and it's one of the driving decisions that we are making along the way. Have we done that before? Whether that's an action scene or whether that's a character, and fortunately for us, Transformers has a lot of tribes. And there's a really large base of characters and there's also a large base of fans that relate to different tribes. And so, this movie is bringing a lot of those tribes together."
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts saa ensi-iltansa ainakin Atlantin toisella puolella 24. kesäkuuta 2022. Elokuvateattereiden ohella raina saapunee myös Paramount Plus -palveluun.
