Michael Bay DOES NOT Want Mark Wahlberg For TRANSFORMERS 4

Coming straight from Bay's mouth, the director sets things straight on the rumor that Wahlberg could star in Transformers 4. For now, the project remains shrouded in secrecy.

Follow Mark:
By Mark Julian - 10/23/2012


Said Bay:
"The Mark Wahlberg T4 rumor is just a rumor. Mark and I are talking about another film project." So let speculation about one project end, and speculation about another project begin.


So far the facts are that sales of toys by Hasbro were down coming off the last Transformers film and the shareholders are speculating that it was due to the fact that there were no new Autobots introduced in the film. Besides this point, everything else we've heard thus far has been rumor. It's rumored that the next film will feature a new female lead and that while Shia LaBeuf will not be returning a few supporting actors from the trilogy could return in some capacity. With the heavy VFX required for the film and a June 2014 release date we should receive more concrete news sooner rather than later.

SmithWillSuffice - 10/23/2012, 9:21 PM
And I don't want Michael Bay for Transformers 4, but we don't always get what we want.
sKeemAn - 10/23/2012, 9:36 PM
This rumor did not sound promising anyway.
JustDame - 10/23/2012, 9:42 PM
Lmao @ yossarian
bbarber2323 - 10/23/2012, 9:43 PM
Bay does action flicks very well. I dont get all the hate...

"the shareholders are speculating that it was due to the fact that there were no new Autobots introduced in the film"

Actually, there were plenty of new Autobots. They each got about 30 seconds of screentime and less than half of them got new toys, while we got five different paint jobs on the same damn Bumblebee figure.

I think we're all with grif on this one. shit movie. Transformers 3 is probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I get a headache just thinking of that douche of a movie
Vapes - 10/23/2012, 9:45 PM
Which cost more while being smaller and more cheaply made than the previous films' toy lines.
ThatOneDude - 10/23/2012, 10:01 PM
[frick] Bay! But seeing that there will be a TF4 just focus on the bots and Nest... With Ultra Magnus or Rodimus leading
Linta - 10/23/2012, 10:12 PM
bring the war to Cybertron Mr. Bay.
jj2112 - 10/23/2012, 10:18 PM
Is he crazy? This would make the movie even better!
1ncredibleJ0C - 10/23/2012, 10:23 PM
I say let bay have optimus save the world With No Arms in this next movie
inkslinger616 - 10/23/2012, 10:40 PM
Oh man I can't wait....to schedule a root canal instead of watch this movie.
JoseTheKingOfTheNorth - 10/23/2012, 10:40 PM
Meh
NorseGod - 10/23/2012, 10:47 PM
Damn, cause I was only going to see it if Wahlberg was in it.
BenderDickCumPatch - 10/23/2012, 11:10 PM
Damn that be good if he was.
RobLiefeldFan - 10/23/2012, 11:33 PM
I will never ever understand why people hate bay so much I believe his transformers movies are actually good and climatic I am a big fan of G1 but c'mon guys do we really want think the other public who watch TF gives a shit about our G1 fantasies I would say it's not bay's fault but the company who tries to please the general public and not the 30 year old nerds, that is why bay makes all the fights climatic so we can actually like it but it seems we are still small minded smh
TheJoker52 - 10/23/2012, 11:51 PM
I was hoping for some "Good Vibrations " here, i will just look another "Wild Side" actor. I hope this doenst go bad for that "Funky Bunch"
alagon18 - 10/23/2012, 11:52 PM
Guys, I get that most of you hate Michael Bay's Transformers film series, but why do you all have to insult the taste and intelligence of those of us who do? (not pointing out a specific moment but it does seem to happen anytime an article involving this film series appears)
Vital - 10/24/2012, 12:17 AM
What's with the misleading article titles lately? You guys are being weird lol. No where does it say he doesn't want MW to be in T4, he just said it was a rumor and that they are talking about another project. That's it. Talk about exaggerating the title damn.
GUNSMITH - 10/24/2012, 2:30 AM
THAT TRANSFORMERS RIDE AT UNIVERSAL STUDIOS WAS PRETTY COOL..
UltimaRex - 10/24/2012, 2:31 AM
I only care enough to say "I don't care".

...

I don't care.
BlakeUsmcVet - 10/24/2012, 3:07 AM
I won't believe Bay. He said he was done with the Transformers after the 3rd movie....He's coming back for number 4.
1ncredibleJ0C - 10/24/2012, 3:33 AM
I just want to see robots F@#% some S#%! up again I mean the movies might of sucked but the fights scenes are the best mos def
ACira - 10/24/2012, 3:38 AM
The whole film is shrouded in secrecy. Let's hope it stays that way forever.

@alagon because it's shit?
ckal - 10/24/2012, 6:04 AM
This franchise will continue to get worse and worse.
Ghaleonausa - 10/24/2012, 6:56 AM
If Bay does not want him in the film then that means he would have been fantastic in the movie, I don't know how. but what bay wants is only errible for movies
Shadowelfz - 10/24/2012, 6:58 AM
Mark Wahlberg is too good an actor to be in a transformers film.
MyInnerDork - 10/24/2012, 7:36 AM
And I DO NOT want Michael Bay directing Transformers 4.
OrganizedChaos - 10/24/2012, 8:02 AM
Michael Bay should've been done with Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon. It ended off the trilogy right as far as the Bay era of Transformers is finally done. I am tired of his crap, please reboot and bring a new director and producer
LesJoliesChoses - 10/24/2012, 8:05 AM
Stupid people paying so much money to watch this crap. So of course this douche is going to keep making these shit films.
RedMosquito - 10/24/2012, 8:33 AM
Yep, there were not new Autobots introduced in the movie. Except for the red Ferrari, 'Dino'. Other than that, no new ones. Oh, and Brains, the little guy that turned into a laptop. Other than those two, no new Autobots. Oh and Sentinel Prime of course. Other than that, no new Autobots. Oh, oh, and the 3 wreckers, but other than those 6 definitely no new Autobots. No sir. So in total 1 more new Autobots than total Autobots in the first movie, but clearly no new ones. No new decepticons either, except for the new ones that were new.
Avenged99 - 10/24/2012, 8:35 AM
@LesJoliesChoses What I don't understand is with the millions errr Billions of dollars that they make, why would you not want to be a part of all that? like Bay is going to make more money on another flic.
Pathogen - 10/24/2012, 8:37 AM
These movies ruined my childhood.
SecretApprentice71 - 10/24/2012, 8:41 AM
A Transformers movie focusing solely on the actual Transformers, that would be nice.


I can dream can't i?
ThaReaperAssassin - 10/24/2012, 9:29 AM
Michael Bay is scared someone was gonna make a better tranformers movie than him so he came back for the 4th knowing that the studio would push on without him if he didn't. What a sore loser money whore.
SanFranLand - 10/24/2012, 10:21 AM
Toy sales are down.

Out-of-touch execs have the answer: NEW CHARACTERS!

Nail on the head! Raises all around, fellas!

Worry about the pesky "story" and "character development" until the last minute!
kemuael - 10/24/2012, 2:46 PM
No one cares about the movie until a epic trailer comes out like usual :-D
Daryda2009 - 10/24/2012, 4:59 PM
I think mark wal will be casey in ninja turtles even tho micheal bay will [frick] that movie up as well
pixar - 10/24/2012, 6:32 PM
MIchael Bay: "sorry , this pitch just makes too much sense. NEXT!"
pixar - 10/24/2012, 6:35 PM
I would rather see A live action trilogy of captain underpants than see this.
TheChameleon - 10/24/2012, 6:38 PM
@ pixar don't forget to use the Action Movie FX app. We want to make this trilogy the most action packed yet!
