Development

In December 2018, when asked about the future of the Transformers franchise, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura stated that "another big Transformers movie" would be produced and that it would be "different than the ones that we've done before". He described the process as more of an "evolution", saying that there is more freedom to create and what they can do with it. After the success of Bumblebee, he acknowledged that the series will make some changes in tone and style, inspired by the film.[6]

Director Travis Knight said his goal was to return to his animation studio Laika,[7] though he acknowledged that he has a few ideas for a Bumblebee sequel.[8] John Cena expressed interest in reprising his role in a sequel.[9] Writer Christina Hodson said that "[she] knows where [she wants] to go with the next one".[10] In late January 2019, a sequel was announced, due to the film's international box office performance.[11] In March, di Bonaventura confirmed they were developing a script for a Bumblebee sequel.[12]

In January 2020, Paramount was reportedly working on two different Transformers films, one written by James Vanderbilt and another written by Joby Harold.[13] In November, Steven Caple Jr. was hired to direct Harold's script.[14] Patrick Tatopoulos was hired as the production designer the following year in January.[15] During a virtual event held by Paramount in June, di Bonaventura and Caple revealed that the film was titled Transformers: Rise of the Beasts,[16] and that it would feature the Terrorcons, the Maximals, and the Predacons.[1] The visual effects for the Beast Wars characters will be provided by the Moving Picture Company.[17]

Casting

In April 2021, Anthony Ramos was cast for the lead role in the film.[18] Later that month, Dominique Fishback was cast opposite Ramos.[19] It was also revealed that Darnell Metayer and Josh Peters had been hired to rewrite Harold's screenplay.[19] In June, actress Lauren Vélez revealed that she has a role in the sequel.[20] In the same month, Peter Cullen was confirmed to reprise his role of Optimus Prime for the film,[16] and Ron Perlman was announced also reprising as the voice of Optimus Primal from Transformers: Power of the Primes.[2]

Filming

Principal photography began on June 7, 2021 in Los Angeles, California.[21] Filming is also expected to start at Machu Picchu in Peru.[16]

Release

The film is scheduled to be released on June 24, 2022.[4]
