Michael Bay’s Transformers franchise is back having a whole new cast.The fourth instalment within the billion-dollar series has replaced Shia LaBeouf with Mark Wahlberg because the lead and has even given its main robot a makeover.The baritone leader from the heroic Autobots, Optimus Prime, has a fresh look because he welcomes two new robotic inclusions in his team in the form of some muscular super cars. The very first is rumoured to be the Autobot swordsman Drift whose car form is really a 1,200-horsepower Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse, costing $2.4million.The second addition is a C7 Corvette Stingray, modelled on the production car by Chevrolet debuting in 2014.Meanwhile, the Autobot’s earnest leader, the gargantuan Optimus Prime, has a full on upgrade.The blue machine gets more than his spark plugs changed as his roadway form takes the shape of a custom-built Western Star truck.The transformation is a serious improvement from 2011’s Peterbilt Model-379 for Transformers: Dark of the Moon, that was a bit outdated for the futuristic series.
While, Transformers 4 features an entirely new human cast its director Bay insists it is not a reboot.‘It's not a reboot; that's maybe the wrong word,’ Bay told the Los Angeles Times. ‘I don't want to say reboot because then people will think we're doing a Spider-Man and starting from the beginning.‘We're not. We're taking the story that you've seen — the story we've told in three movies already and we're taking it in a new direction. But we're leaving those three as the history. It all still counts.’
