Paramount Confirms New Transformers Film for 2022 Release


People who have been anticipating yet another Transformers film are in for a treat. Paramount Pictures has just confirmed that a new movie will be released in 2022.

The new report from Screenrant reveals that the studio has already chosen a new release date for the next Transformers film in June 2022. However, there were not more details shared about the project.

There are currently two Transformers movies that are believed to be in development. The first one is a sequel to Bumblebee, which would focus on the Autobot's next adventures. The second Bumblebee film is reportedly being penned by Joby Harold, who had previously worked on King Arthur: Legend of the Sword and Army of the Dead. However, it has not yet been confirmed whether Hailee Steinfeld will return in the sequel.

The second Transformers flick is set to be a spin-off that will focus on the series Beast Wars. For now, not much is known about the project. However, it has already been revealed that Murder Mystery's James Vanderbilt will be writing the screenplay.

There are speculations that Paramount could be pushing for the Beast Wars adaptation as a way to please Hasbro fans. On the other hand, some believe that the studio will choose to focus on Bumblebee 2 due to the positive reaction to the first movie. In the meantime, Paramount has yet to confirm which of the two projects will premiere on the new release date. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.

The still-untitled Transformers film is scheduled for release on June 24, 2022.
