Transformers 6 to be Bumblebee Spin-Off

The fifth, sixth, and seventh Transformers movies are set to come out on June 23, 2017, June 8, 2018, and June 28, 2019 respectively. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount Pictures chairman and CEO Brad Grey indicated that Transformers 6 will be a slight change of pace. The film is set to be a Bumblebee spin-off with a lower budget.

“There are characters in the Transformers universe that can be and should be made into their own movies,” Grey said. “We will make the first movie with Michael [Bay] and go right into a Bumblebee movie, which will be at a lower cost.”

Bay will be returning to direct Transformers 5, but its unknown if he’ll be helming the next two sequels. In any case, it looks like Tranformers 6 will work in plenty of product placement for Camaro.
