Next ‘Transformers’ Titled ‘Rise Of The Beasts’; Confirmed As ’90s-set ‘Beast Wars’ Film

It’s official: the beasts are coming out to play for Transformers 7.

Paramount, along with director Steven Caple Jr. and stars Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback confirmed today the next film will be titled Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. At a virtual panel event, they made true the rumors that it’ll be a Beast Wars movie.

Damn.

So get ready for Optimus Primal, Maximals, Predacons, Terrorcons, and more. Arcee will join the Autobots squad, transforming into a Ducati. Another female Autobot, Nightbird, is on the team as a Nissan GTR. Another personal favorite, Mirage, finally hits the big screen as a Porsche 911. Meanwhile, Optims Prime will sport a new look that combines his classic G1 with the Bay version.

Rise of the Beasts is set in 1994, which sets it between Bumblebee and the Michael Bay films. Nothing is being excluded here; everything that has come before on the big screen counts. Ramos plays Noah, who is former military and a father-figure to his little brother, who is a whiz with electronics. Fishback is Elena, a researcher studying artifacts in a museum.

The primary locations are in Brooklyn, New York, and Peru.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts opens June 24th, 2022
