Even though the script of the movie was finished in the fall of last year, there has yet to be any news regarding what the plot will offer. However, it was stated that the film will shift its focus on the actual Transformers themselves, aside from the human-centric plotline it used to have.
According to the head writer of the movie, Akiva Goldsman, the film will hopefully expand the Transformers universe. As reported by Deadline, he said, "We've got a work space that is beautifully production designed to be immersive with a strong sense of the franchise history," he said. "We will look at the toys, the TV shows, the merchandise, everything that has been generated by Hasbro, from popular to forgotten iterations, and establish a mythological time line. It has been designed with a lot of visual help, toys, robots, sketches and writers and artists. After that super saturation, the writers will figure out not one, but numerous films that will extend the universe."
With that, fans can expect big changes to come for the new film. "Transformers 5" is expected to hit theaters by 2017.
