Transformers 4 has an official title: Age of Extinction. The decision comes after Paramount registered other domains that gave clues about the title: Transformers: Last Stand, Transformers: Apocalypse and Transformers: Future Cast. The producer also released the first poster of the film, with premiere scheduled for July 2014.
The fourth instalment will count with Mark Wahlberg and Stanley Tucci, plus Jack Reynor and Nicola Peltz, without forgetting the Chinese stars Han Geng and Li Bingbing, who will serve as a hook for the Asian audiences.
As an important new addition to the toy industry, the film directed by Michael Bay will include Dinobots: robots that turn into metallic dinosaurs.
The three previous films based on this property of Hasbro achieved a total box office total of over $2.5 billion. This is the eleventh most successful franchise, and the second if we only consider the sagas with three titles, just behind The Lord of the Rings (ranked 9).
