Transformers 4 film will be called 'Age of Extinction' and might feature Dinobots 4 Sep 2013 14:00 Hold onto your tin hats and dust off your tiny model cars, Transformers 4 has an official title Micheal Bay, the Transformers' head honch Getty The fourth big screen Transformers movie will be called 'Age of Extinction' which, while not exactly ushering in images of humans and machines skipping gleefully through fields of daisies together, does at least suggest there will be lots of amazing CGI fighting. The official poster (the first of many) for the fourth Transformers film This title has got fans all in a flap over the possibility that the film will feature Dinobots, the robots that turned into dinosaurs and that were the toy to own in the 1980s. The Dinobot team: Grimlock: a T-Rex Sludge: a Brontosauryus Slag: a Triceratops (not sure you'd get away with that name nowadays) Snarl: a Stegosaurus Swoop: a Pterodactyl In an interview with Beijing news, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura said: "I can not disclose the specifics, but you can be sure that the arrival of the Dinobots will give the audience a lot to be excited about. The world's coolest, most exciting cars will appear in the film, including Chinese vehicles, so whether you are a car enthusiast or not, it will be a feast for the eyes." Sounds like a confirmation to us. According to Yahoo.com, Lorenzo's Chinese plug wasn't incidental. The site remarks that most Hollywood blockbusters have started taking Chinese audiences into account due to the potential for huge returns. They cite the movie Pacific Rim as an example - it made $100million at the Chinese box office, considerably more, ahem, than it made in the States. The film is being shot in both the US and China with Chinese singer/actor Han Geng making his English-language debut in the film. Mark Wahlberg will be taking over from Shia LaBeouf as the star of the film which, like all the others, is being directed by Michael Bay. Wahlberg will play a struggling inventor and single father to Tessa (Nicola Peltz) who is dating race car driver Shane (Jack Reynor). Kelsey Grammar is bad guy Harold Attinger who will star alongside Sophia Myles, Stanley Tucci, TJ Miller, Titus Welliver, Bingbing Li, Victoria Summer and the aforementioned Geng Han. The film is due to be released in the US on the 27 June 2014 with UK release date still to be confirmed. Let us know if this film news has inspired you to get your Dinobots out of the attic and if it has whether you'll be putting them in pride of place on your mantelpiece or packing them off to the local charity shop.
