This leaves us a number of options: Merlin travels through time; Merlin reincarnates; this rumour is entirely unfounded; there is a mistake on Mashable; it's just a guy named Merlin. Let us know what you make of it in the Energon Pub!
Mark Wahlberg stars alongside Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Isabela Moner, Laura Haddock, Jerrod Carmichael, Gil Birmingham and Anthony Hopkins. Santiago Cabrera will co-star as Merlin, and many of your favorite Autobots and Decepticons will return as well.

But there's still police car and crane robots somehow?
If it goes as weird as Scioli's TF vs G.I. Joe, I'm in.

Best quote all day.
and I'm looking forward to what all of this comes together to mean. We got a bunch of things here, I'm ready for them to be tied up

Honestly I bet a lot of these things will be restricted to cameos so the movie isn't too cluttered. Merlin and Arthur being a flashback, Barricade being an opening/second scene capture/kill, etc.

I disagree. I'm glad when Titan reprinted the G1 comics they left out those issues.Sabrblade wrote:"Man of Iron" is a fantastic story.

I'm officially ecstatic now. There hasn't been this big of an actual firefight since the end of ROTF.

SO EXCITED for my first day on @transformers! See you tomorrow @michaelbay @laurajhaddock #TransformersTheLastKnight
From another British cast member, Laura Haddock, we have a look at a new prop from the set, in the shape of a skull with a laurel crown, skewered by a sword. What does it mean? We have no idea, but take a look and speculate away in the Energon Pub!
And finally, if you happen to be in the UK and fancy your chances at being an extra on the Paramount and Michael Bay movie, why not take a look at the Casting call right here. What type of extra role? Vaguely historically inaccurate generic medieval soldiers and knights, on both the Saxon and Arthur's sides of a battle, but also main speaking roles and film crew spots - more info below!
The Paramount Pictures feature film “Transformers: The Last Knight” has completed filming in Detroit, and is moving on to London, England to continue filming. There is an official casting call seeking males over 16 years of age who have long hair and/or beards to portray medieval soldiers and knights in an epic battle sequence that will film between October 3rd and October 14, 2016. To be considered, all talent MUST have legal eligibility to work in the entertainment industry in London, and the documentation and resources are available here. “Transformers: The Last Knight”, will center on the previously unknown connection between giant alien robots from the planet Cybertron and the mythical court of fifth century English monarch King Arthur. This film is currently using the working title of “E75”.

Va'al should know this. He's British, for God's sake.
