Development
In March 2015, Deadline.com reported that Paramount Pictures was in talks with Oscar winner Akiva Goldsman inorder to pitch new ideas for the Transformers franchise's future installments. The studio intends to do what James Cameron and 20th Century Fox had been doing to spawn three new Avatar sequels and what Disney is doing to revive Star Wars with sequels and spinoffs.[3] Goldsman will work with franchise director Michael Bay, executive producer Steven Spielberg and producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura to organize a "writer's room" that will incubate ideas for potential Transformers sequels, prequels and spinoffs.[3] The writer's room members includes Christina Hodson, Lindsey Beer, Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari, (Ant-Man), Robert Kirkman, (The Walking Dead), Art Marcum & Matt Holloway, Zak Penn (Pacific Rim 2), Jeff Pinkner (The Amazing Spider-Man 2), Ken Nolan and Geneva Robertson-Dworet.[3] In July 2015, Akiva Goldsman & Jeff Pinkner were announced to write the script for the film.[4] However, on November 20, due to Goldsman's commitments on creating a writer's room for G.I. Joe and Micronauts properties, Paramount began to negotiate with Art Marcum and Matt Holloway (Iron Man) as well as Ken Nolan (Black Hawk Down), to write the film.[5] After Transformers: Age of Extinction, Bay decided not to direct any other future Transformers film but in early January 2016, in an interview with Rolling Stone he confirmed that he would return to direct the fifth film and that it would be his last Transformers film.[6] Paramount Pictures will spend $80 million for production in Michigan of which Paramount will receive $21 million of state incentives for filming in the state, under agreements entered into before the state legislature eliminated the film office incentive program in July 2015.[7]
Casting
On December 18, Mark Wahlberg confirmed that he will return for the sequel.[8] In February 2016, there were casting call for new lead and supporting roles in Los Angeles and London.[2] Approximately 850 cast and crews will be hired, 450 of which will be Michigan residents equating to 228 full-time positions. Additionally, 700 extras will be hired from among the Detroit residents as part of Paramount's deal with the locale.[9]
Filming
Principal photography is set to begin in June 2016 in Detroit, Michigan and London under the working title E75,[2][9][10] with additional filming to take place in Chicago, Illinois.[11]
Effects
As with all other previous Transformers installments, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) will serve as the main visual effects company for Transformers 5.[6] In early 2016, the company showed Bay an underwater rendering of a crash-landed alien spaceship and a new dump-truck Transformer with a cloak.[6]
Release
Transformers 5 is scheduled to be released on June 23, 2017 and will compete with Warner Bros.' Wonder Woman.[12]
Sequels
Its sequels, a Bumblebee spin-off and Transformers 7 are set to be released on June 8, 2018 and June 28, 2019 respectively.[12]
