    Via Vulture:

    Michael Bay will be back behind the lens for a fourth Transformers film, Vulture reports. He's said to be close to finalizing a deal with Paramount Pictures and will likely begin work after shooting his smaller-budgeted passion project, Pain and Gain.

    Word of a fourth entry in the blockbuster franchise first popped up in October, suggesting that Shia LaBeouf is unlikely to return in a leading role and that a fourth and fifth film could be shot back-to-back. Those reports remain unconfirmed. At the time, Bay issued the following statement:

    I am currently not talking to Paramount on T4 and T5 despite reports. I'm looking at a lot of possibilities coming my way right now weighing options. Most likely going to be doing the low budget Pain and Gain, a true story crime thriller. It's a very quick shoot and quite funny. Also just finishing the 3 disc set of the Transformer trilogy.

    Just yesterday, a report suggested that Bay is close to locking his leading men for the dark crime comedy with Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg. Because of it's signicantly smaller scale, Pain and Gain is planned for a shoot towards the beginning of 2012, leaving the end of the year open for work on a fourth Transformers.

    For. Fuck's. Sake.

    Can we please knock of the reboot talk just for once? And no, eagc7, there is nothing you can do. Money talks louder than avatar picket signs ever could.

    And to anybody who's truely surprised by this, here's another bombshell: grass is green!

    i dont care.

    TF4 must be stopped, not matter the cost, we must brign in a reboot!

    Paramount and hasbro should notice the Negative fans reactions on tf4, most of those ppl that dont want tf4 were ppl that were excited for TF2 and 3 (me included). and if they dont want tf4 but a reboot, then they should listen to the fans

    Me, too. I'm cool with whatever.

    You can't. Because you are not most. You're merely vocal, which does not entitle you to speak for the masses. Especially when easily as much people are vocal in favour of a fourth movie as those against.

    My cousin worked on practical effects for the first 3 films and last week he signed on for 4 and 5. Doesn't mean bay has, but the films are moving forward on the pre-production front.
