The Transformers franchise sure is a tricky beast, and we're not just talking about Grimlock. Since its first live-action outing in 2007, there have been some box-office highs and lows, with the most recent being the critical hit but box office slip-up that was director Josh Cooley's surprisingly entertaining Transformers One. Even after that bump in the road, though, it has now been reported that Paramount is going full throttle with the robots in disguise in not one, but possibly five brand-new projects.
Word from Puck News reveals that the longtime director of the live-action Transformers franchise and master of slow-motion disaster, Michael Bay, has pitched a brand-new idea to the studio and is willing to return to the director's chair to bring the story to life. Bay hasn't handled a Transformers film since 2017 with Transformers: The Last Knight, which stands as one of the least favored films during the director's time in tussling with Optimus Prime and Megatron.
