Paramount also confirmed that there will be a CGI animated Transformers film along with a Nickelodeon animated series that is set to arrive in the fall.

In The Heights actor Anthony Ramos and Deuce's star Dominique Fishback are among the stars of the next movies, which will debut in 2023.

Last summer, the studio shared the official line for the upcoming sci-fi action flick, which read: "Rise of the Beasts will take audiences on a '90s globetrotting adventure and introduce the Maximals, Predacons and Terrorcons to the existing battle on earth between Autobots and Decepticons."

The sci-fi action franchise was launched in 2007, initially starring Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox.

The most recent Transformers film was the 2018 Hailee Steinfeld-led installment, also featuring John Cena and Angela Bassett.
