Transformers: Age of Extinction Revealed Full Robot Roster

EW, revealed the above image of Grimlock and Hasbro (via TFW2005) has brought online 13 new character images that show off the robotic cast of Michael Bay’s Transformers: Age of Extinction.Speaking with the magazine, Bay reaffirms that Transformers: Age of Extinction is the launch of a new big screen trilogy. Although he’s said as much in the past, he’s no longer writing himself off as the director of the next two adventures.

“We had three, the first trilogy, and this is going to be the next one,” he says. “…It’s the first of a new trilogy. I’m not necessarily sure that I’m doing [the others], but that’s what it’s meant for.”

Bay revealed some new details about film’s new bots, particularly Lockdown, who he says could play an expanded role in future films.

“Lockdown is an interesting character,” he says. “He travels the galaxy, he works for somebody else. And he’s here for one person, one alien, and then he’s out of here,” Bay says. “So he doesn’t really want to take sides. The cause and balance of the galaxy is kind of messed up when different species play with different species. And that opens up a whole other gigantic world for Transformers… Lockdown’s ship has a lot of meaning that can go into other movies. There’s a lot of backstory about that ship that’s not laid out here. You’re going to see a few things where you’re like ‘What is that? And what is that?’ And you’re going to see a couple shots like, ‘Wait a minute, who are they?’ But we don’t answer those questions.”

Stars Mark Wahlberg, Jack Reynor, Nicola Peltz, Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Sophia Myles, Li Bingbing, T.J. Miller, Han Geng and Titus Welliver. Are you excited for the new Dino Bots?

Opening in theaters and IMAX on June 27.
