    I'd rather have Reynor than Thwaites.

    "Reynor will take over the lead role initially played by Shia LaBeouf, who starred in the original three films, which are based on the Marvel comic series. Reynor is expected to play the love interest of Mark Wahlberg’s character’s daughter"

    This was stated later down in the story. Since when were the movies based off Marvel comics? I am calling it fake...

    Yay, an unknown I've never heard of is going to get his big break.

    Congratulations, sir. But let me know when they start discussion on robots.

    No offense meant to the original news poster, but wake me when there's a real story associated with this movie. Right now everything seems so... up in the air. We're getting excited about leads being cast for a script barely 70 pages complete? I want to be interested, but have zero idea what to be excited about... yet.

    I think...

    This fella is in the running, but hasn't been officially offered the role, and this piece was published to try and force a decision.

    I'm guessing;

    Nicola Peltz - Female lead
    Mark Wahlberg - Female leads father
    Jack Reynor - Female leads love interest

    The script probably included some elements of the films plot - similar to the leaked 'ninja turtles' script - in order to judge fan reactions.

    The only person i've actually heard of is 'Mark Wahlberg' and thats from film reviews stating who he is and how terrible he is. Heck, i watch 'The Last Airbender' and still had no idea who Nicola Peltz is.

    The cast at the moment seems very lack-luster in terms of talent. Did anyone else ask themselves "who the hell is jack reynor?" At the moment all the cast is just those who have no talent and stared in movies that were considered terrible.

    I would also like to point out that Bay wants to keep everything a secret so he will probably deny everything just for the hell of it.

    *sigh* when ar these people EVER going to understand that the franchise has very little to do with the humans involved and that the characters of the story are in fact THE TRANSFORMERS????

    I could care less about Sam or whoever getting the girl or whatever the hell else. Never in any of the cartoon series was the human the ultimate hero of the tail though they had some heroic moments.

    It's about good giant robots that turn into cars fighting other evil robots that turn into cars (and planes and tanks etc.) the human element is a by product of the story and used as a mechanism to establish which side is the good side.
    ie: If one team of robots is not trying to destroy humans and the world we inhabit then that makes them "good" and we care if they succeed or fail. That's it, that's all, that's the entirety of the human element involved in the tail.

    Mark Wahlberg is awesome. I wouldn't count him among the list of 'best actors', whatever the hell that means, but he really shines when a movie makes good use of his natural grumpy look and behaviour.

    He was great in The Departed, where they amplified that.
    He was great in The Other Guys, where they did a 180 and presented him in an awkward comedy role (not unlike what they did with Channing Tatum in 21 Jump Street).


    Adding Mark Wahlberg to Transformers 4 may just add that level of absurdism that these movies need :lol

    Wahlberg I have been sold on since the Italian Job. It's the other dorks I have never heard of and their body of work does not give me any hope.

    I've got no issues...

    With Mark Wahlberg, I do think he will be a great addition.

    When are people EVER going to understand that live action movies need actors, so that is why there are announcements that actors are being signed on?
