Transformers franchise reveal title for 5th film on social media
The never ending metal-clad war between the Optimus Prime-led Autobots against Megatron’s Decepticons is reportedly returning to cinemas soon, with a fancy new title to boot.
Dubbed as ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’, the film, which has been previously known simply as ‘Transformers 5’, was unveiled on Instagram on Monday (Tuesday in Manila).
The short clip featured a close-up image of Prime’s alien-robotic face, with the sounds of heavy cybernetic breathing resonating in the background.

The image then fades into a title treatment, showing what seems lot be like an Excalibur-type sword, followed by the revelation that production will start in June.
Although the new title has been made public, plot details have yet to be released for the film which will once again be headlined by Mark Wahlberg and be directed by Michael Bay.
The pair spearheaded the the success of the 2014 film, Transformers: Age of Extinction.
