Michael Bay Updates Transformers 3 with Old-School Talent

Posted 03.22.10 by reelz

Clash of the Titans This morning Michael Bay broke some big casting news about Transformers 3 on his blog.

Transformers 3 has been going very well. We are going to shoot in LA, Chicago, Washington DC, Florida, Texas, Africa, Moscow, and China. On the talent front, we just locked in Frances McDormand and John Malkovich. Both amazing actors I've always wanted to work with. We also just got Ken Jeong, he is the super funny actor stuck in the trunk from "Hangover" and the Doctor from "Knocked Up."

We start shooting pre-shoots in about one month.

While we certainly appreciate the influx of talent these stars bring, the news came as quite a surprise after last week's announcement that Bay planned an updated look for the third installment.

About Jason Statham(how he could be in Transformers 4)
Transformed | 10.22.11 09:28:31 PM
Actually,compared to Shia,he does look older so,having him play as a daddy to a five or six year old Spike wouldn't even look bad.Not bad at all(you might decide, to give Spike his own transforming suit if, a 5 ever got made who knows?).

WHY ASTROTRAIN WOULDN'T MAKE IT TO SILVERSCREEN TO BE IN 4
Transformed | 10.22.11 09:21:48 PM
ASTROTRAIN should've been listed in Transformers 3 but somehow,never seemed to make the list.So how would he measure out in Transformers 4? That's just it,he wouldn't.Even though it's cool to see that spoof of him transforming(seen on a Youtube spoof),it's not possible adding him to the new Decepticons since they're supposed to be all destroyed in 3.Turning a dead Starscream into Astrotrain wouldn't work either.Astrotrain will simply have to wait until 5 if Galvatron decides to make new allies.Now however,if they decide to make Astrotrain from the remains of Soundwave then,that's a different story again(good luck sorting that out).But for now,i think he should just remain out of 4.Sorry Astrotrain.

If Transformers 4 ever got made
Transformed | 10.22.11 09:12:39 PM
NEW DECEPTICONS: SCORCH,THE SWEEPS,CYCLONUS,URANUR,GAVATRON & UNICRON

NEW AUTOBOTS:MIRAGE,HOTROD(after Optimus gets killed,he becomes RODIMUS PRIME),WHEELJACK,SMOKESCREEN

RETURNING AUTOBOTS:OPTIMUS,BUMBLEBEE,SIDESWIPE,
SUNSTREAKER

Now since Shia Lebouf has said he won't return,Jason Statham could become an older version of Sam(somehow).Or,the movie could be done so many years beyond(Megatron is locked inside a large tomb which mysteriously vanishes into thin air overnight).Sam is all grown up and interestingly,has a son(Sparkplug or Spike-you decide since in the cartoon movie,Sparkplug is Spike's dad however,since Transformers 3 doesn't mention anything about a guy named nicknamed 'Sparkplug' i figured that Sam should be given that nickname(after all,who's to say whether or not he becomes good at fixing cars?).Although Jason isn't that old,you could say that over time he becomes a daddy(cool huh?).Now comes the cool part,the final battle:

IN SPACE,LIKE YOU'VE NEVER WITNESSED BEFORE

Transformers 4 Plot:
Transformed | 10.22.11 08:46:57 PM
As earth gathers back the remains of the planet,something still doesn't add up.What happened to Cybertron? Will the Autobots remain on Earth now that the threat is over? That's what the government would like to know.Meanwhile,there's a new evil out there and apparently it has it's eyes on Optimus in hopes of being able to destroy the Matrix within him.The time to attack though isn't right yet but, as darkness arises,something mysterious happens-Megatron,and five others are strangely lifted into space.The news hits out to CNN,and every other news station.When the word reaches Optimus,he is baffled to know how a dead Megatron could just disappear."How could this have happened?" He says,"We're...we're not sure ourselves." They answer.The new evil has begun and it's not Megatron anymore.Apparently the new enemy has created his own army of Decepticons and given them a new look.The new Decepticons are Scorch-the tracker,his horsemen,the Sweeps,Cyclonus & Uranur and a being much more deadlier than Megatron himself.

ARISE GAVATRON!!!!!
