Michael Bay says he will direct Transformers 5

January 5, 2016 by Robert Kojder

Upon completion of every Transformers project, Michael Bay claims that he is vacating the director’s seat for future installments of the franchise, but will remain linked as a producer. Then, some months later, the infamous blockbuster filmmaker usually reveals that he will indeed steer the ship for the upcoming entry. It seems as though Transformers 5 is no different.

During a recent interview with Rolling Stone Bay mentions, “I’m doing Transformers… 5, is it? J.J. [Abrams] told me, ‘You’re the only guy that could do this.’ But it’s time to move on. One more.”

Transformers 5 will see Bay reunite with Mark Whalberg, and will follow on from Transformers: Age of Extinction. You can also read Bay’s comments about Teenage Mutant Turtles 2: Out of the Shadows here.

Michael Bay’s latest film, 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is set for release on January 15th in the States and on January 29th in the UK, with a cast that includes James Badge Dale, John Krasinski, Max Martini, Toby Stephens, Pablo Schreiber, David Denman, Dominic Fumusa, Freddit Stroma, David Costabile and Alexia Barlier.
