Robot Reboot! Overhauled Transformers 4 Set to Storm Theaters in 2014
Start oiling those gears, folks, and get ready to do the robot: Transformers is back!
Michael Bay has filled up his directorial dance card and is set to helm a fourth Transformers movie that'll hit theaters in June 2014, Paramount Pictures announced.
But in a curious twist, Transformers will be transformed: Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura reveals that the franchise will be rebooted to allow for an "evolution" of the storyline.
Wait! Does that mean no Shia LaBoeuf or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley?
EXCLUSIVE!
How'd They Do That?! Watch These Transformers: Dark of the Moon "Birdmen" Stunts!
When it comes to cool visuals, sometimes you need more than just special effects.
In this exclusive first look at a behind-the-scenes feature off the upcoming Blu-ray/DVD release of Transformers: Dark of the Moon (out Tuesday), we find out who was responsible for many of the awesome aerial stunt work that took place in the blockbuster flick.
With Shia Gone, Who's Going to Kick Butt in the Next Transformers?
Next time the Transformers franchise invades the multiplexes, Shia LaBeouf won't be along for the ride.
But if Rosie Huntington-Whiteley can stand the criticism and returns for the fourth film, rumor has it she won't lack for a familiar face on set, even if director Michael Bay decides to pass, as well.
Five Awesome Things That Fell From Space This Year
Wow, NASA, thanks for scaring our pants off with that whole satellite falling from the sky thing. We loved all those stories about 100 chunks of hot metal that could land anywhere on Earth.
Good news is that the stupid UARS satellite crashed this morning, and nobody got hurt. We can't say the same about Hollywood!
For real, look at the summer of movies we just had. All kinds of crazy stuff fell from the sky, every week.
So here, we've collected the year's bestest bits of Earth-bound space junk:
Transformers Hottie Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Gets Nearly Naked in New Ad
Hollywood newcomer Rosie Huntington-Whiteley may be starring in this summer's Transformers: Dark of the Moon, but the model slash actress hasn't quit her day job.
And thank god for that...
UPDATE!
Shia LaBeouf Rules, but Who Bombed?
Shia LaBeouf is the new King of the Fourth of July.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon grossed $116.4 million over the four-day holiday weekend, and set an Independence Day record with a $97.5 million Friday-Sunday take.
As for who's the queen of the Fourth?
Well, it ain't Selena Gomez.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Wore a Chastity Belt on the Tranformers Set?!
Guess someone warned Shia LaBeouf's new costar about what happened with him and Megan Fox?
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley brought her gorgeous self to Chelsea Lately Thursday night. Among the things the Victoria's Secret model and Chelsea Handler discussed were, of course, Transformers: Dark of the Moon. So was Rosie able to resist the, erm, boyish charm of Shia?
Rosie busted out laughing, then joked, "It was tough...[more laughing]...I really had to restrain myself. I had to wear a chastity belt and everything." Ooh, burn.
Rosie, we heart you!
Is the Transformers Movie Bombing? (And Could a Lack of Megan Fox Be to Blame?)
The new Transformers sequel opened Wednesday and, as expected, its box-office take was big and fat…
…And kinda puny compared to the last Transformers sequel!?
Um, what?
Is Megan Fox Still the Most Interesting Thing About Transformers?
Why is all the press surrounding the new Transformers movie about Megan Fox, who isn't even in the movie? Is this the studio's plan?
—Junebug, Atlanta, via the inbox
It's a delicious conspiracy theory, isn't it? We imagine a smoky back room, filled with studio execs. They take a look at the final cut of Dark of the Moon, wail and moan as their eyes bleed out of their sockets, and then decide to market the whole mess by trashing franchise refugee Megan Fox.
So is this what happened? I asked around:
Poll: Should Shia LaBeouf Keep His Mouth Shut?
After making his delish—and kinda douchey—announcement to Details magazine that he and former Transformers costar Megan Fox got it on, Shia LaBeouf is now claiming that he'll "edit" himself and go the "no comment" route.
Talk about a 180. Although Megan may not be too happy with his big mouth—Shi also said recently that the big robot franchise is better off without her—we're not in the biz of telling stars to shut up.
Then again, the guy may have a point. At least, his former Indiana Jones costar Harrison Ford seems to think it's a good idea. That's why he had this gem to give about S.L.'s blabbermouth:
