Seibertronian moderator Rodimus Prime has kept an eye out for Transformers: The Last Knight news, and found some over on ComingSoon.net - it appears that initial photography has started in Cuba, as we reported would happen not long ago! Find out more here, and below, where we've included Michael Bay's shot of a lime green car - a new Transformer, or just something lying around the location?

Production has begun on the upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight and they’ve set up shop in an unlikely place: Cuba! Director Michael Bay made the announcement on his Instagram page, noting they were only the second American production to be filming in Cuba (following the upcoming Fast 8 ).

The Transformers: The Last Knight cast includes the return of Transformers: Age of Extinction star Mark Wahlberg as Cade Yeager as well as newcomer Isabela Moner (100 Things to Do Before High School, Growing Up Fisher) as the film’s female lead, Izabella. Jerrod Carmichael (The Carmichael Show, Neighbors) is also set to play an unspecified leading role. Josh Duhamel will also reprise his role of Lieutenant Colonel Lennox from the first three films.

Production on Transformers: The Last Knight is set to come stateside on June 6 in Detroit, where Transformers: Age of Extinction was also shot.

Michael Bay returns to the director’s chair for the film, which is set to be written by Iron Man scribes Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Ken Nolan (Black Hawk Down). Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Don Murphy and Tom DeSanto will produce the sequel.

Combined, the previous four Transformers films have brought in over $3.7 billion at the global box office with 2014’s Age of Extinction the second-highest grossing in the series. Current plans call for Transformers: The Last Knight to be released on June 23, 2017. It will be followed by a Bumblebee spin-off film in 2018 before Transformers 6 arrives in 2019.

The color reminds me of Mr. Bean's car.

Can't see a faction symbol but that does look like the Chevrolet badge on the front, so I'd say there's at least a fair chance of it being a new bot

Does anyone else weirdly get a Kup feeling from it? It's old-timey, it's a shade of green, it has that taller on the front and shorter at the longer back thing going on...

You do know most movie transformers don't have faction symbols in alt mode right?

They're never plastered on, but I could swear that there's often a subtle symbol either somewhere on the bonnet or the radiator, similar to where you might find the manufacturer's badge

The only transformers to retain their original colours in the movies are Optimus, Bumblebee, Hound and Megatron and Megatron is only loosely based on the G1 colours.

So it could be anyone hell it could be Blurr for all we know.

...THAT car being Blurr? Nah. Nascar is the better option for him. :-P

Hmm Idk. It reminds me a lot of Cybertron Downshift for some reason.

They could always add something like that via CGI in post production.

And Brawl, one-third of Arcee, another one-third of Arcee named Chromia, The Fallen, Ravage, Long Haul (debatable), Scrapmetal (there was a yellow/black version), Topspin, Shockwave (debatable), and (sorta) the Dinobots (they were at least largely gray in the movie).

Yeah, it's debatable with him. Some DOTM imagery gives him more of a purple hue while other imagery of him doesn't.

I'll be shocked if any Transformer appearing in Cuba isn't shown with a cigar and woven fedora because Bay loves stereotypes.

He actually looks purple to me. Maybe it's just because purple stands out to me more since it's my favorite color.

You people really have ridiculous assumptions when it comes to Bay's decisions.

Thanks to Observer.com we bring to you an interview with Josh Duhamal, also known as William Lennox in the Transformers Live Action Movies. The full interview can be found by clicking the link above, but we bring to you a section regarding Transformers: The Last Knight, which includes him talking about filming that occurred in El Mirage, California. He also talked a little bit about Bay's sets. Check out the conversation below.

Josh Duhamel wrote:At the top of his work docket is, of course, his role as Lt. Colonel William Lennox in Michael Bay’s Transformers: The Last Knight. The day before we spoke, Mr. Duhamel was stationed to film his scenes 70 miles outside of Los Angeles in El Mirage, California. “I had never been there and it’s a trip,” he said of the far flung locale. “It’s this giant, flat lakebed with 40 MPH winds that didn’t stop all day, but Michael [Bay]’s set is unlike any other set. He has all of the gadgets and the coolest stuff, and the energy of that set is just really – well, it’s a spectacle, and it’s really changed my career. It’s helped me to pursue other little creative things. I love the big Transformer movies, but I also love these passion projects.”

Fellow Seibertronian Bumblebee21 found the beginning of the marketing campaign from Paramount for Transformers: The Last Knight - starting on Twitter and Instagram - which featured a message in morse code over a United States State Department torn image, with the writing 'File no. 21.63 Date: 10'. The message translates as 'I M COMING FOR YOUHUMANS.MAY31'.

What are we to expect from this? Speculate away in the Energon Pub!

I think this means that we will be getting a tease or a look at the villain for Last Knight on the 31(currently the 28th when I am writing this) or maybe the movie will release on May 31 of what ever year. I definitely think we will be getting something on the 31 though.

After the Transformers: The Last Knight viral campaign first glimpse of something coming for us last week, director Michael Bay has uploaded another Instagram clip, featuring a similarly coloured unidentified robot-esque character - swiftly identified in the caption as Megatron. Maybe. Take a look below for yourselves, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

michaelbayIt's starting. This week production. Megatron is back. #transformers #decepticons#

We also get a Megatron teaser from the official Transformers Facebook page, mirrored below.

Wait, wasn't Galvatron voiced by Leonard Nimoy? Maybe that forced them to go back to Megs rather than get a new voice actor and have them sound different (not that Galvatron really said anything in AoE :roll:

) I could see Galvatron 'shedding' his new human-given form and name and reclaiming his old name and Cybertronian body-style out of pride and vanity :-?

No, no, Galvatron was voiced by Frank Welker. It was Nimoy in the G1 movie.

I'm thinking the same thing. I'm not really bothered because we have an amazing writing team taking on these movies.

That being said its never been the writing that's been an issue for me. It's the god awful editing! And I find enjoyment in all the movies but yeah, Bay in the editing room...yikes.

Megatron coming back Is interesting. His head(and maybe his body) are intact and what if we will get both Megatron and Galvatron and Galvatron is just a copy of Megatrons consciousness.
