    unless he voices a transformer,i can't see that as good news tbh and imo.

    he tries to hard to follow in the rock's footsteps and even the rock has some very bad movies under his belt (same as cena). and yes their acting contributed to them being bad movies.

    Sounds promising. Wonder if he's going to be an actor in the movie or a side autobot voice.

    That plot detail sounds about around what I expected. Kind of like they're pulling an AOE Prime but with Bee early on.

    aye the movie that opened wi' merlin being drunk and asking a knight autobot for a stick that can control the other knight autobots that later has a headmaster sing "move bitch get out the way" was in the mindset that it was deep

    I doubt Cena will have any significant screen time. It's clearly to bring in the younger audience. That's the last thing I'd be worried about.

    I'm totally down with this. A smaller, more intimate movie with a smaller robot cast, Steinfeld, and John Cena set in the 80s? This has the potential to be totally Shrektastic!

    If he's somehow Cliffjumper, then the character will have been played by two ex-wrestlers. If he's a human character, I have absolutely no idea how they're gonna handle him. I was more affected when I heard that Steinfeld was joining the cast. It's good to see that Bee is a VW though. I've seen some really cool fan designs of Bayformers Bumblebee with Beetle parts.

    Hey, WWE fan here.

    Believe it or not, wrestlers are actors too, and many of them tend to act very well, both in the WWE (see: Bray Wyatt, Alexa Bliss, Hardys, Miz, Dean Ambrose) and out (see: Bullet Club, Okada, Jay Lethal, British Strong Style). John Cena, when given wiggle room, is a great actor, and I for one am looking forward to seeing good ol' Toilet Dinner in this.

    Depends on how Justice League turns out but after TLK, I don't think studios are worried about competing with TF anymore.

    Wonder Woman originally had the same date as TLK. Imagine how that would've turned out.

    So.....
    Producers: "Writers room! We need a fresh spinoff plot, lets distance ourselves from the ugly Kruger days"

    Writers:"We have it! Let's basically have the exact same plot as Optimus from the fist act of Age of extinction but make Cade and Tessa the same character!"

    Producers: "we love it! So original and fresh!"
