Transformers: The Last Knight - UK's 'Loneliest Dog' Freya Joins the Cast

Say what you will about Bay, but he has a soft spot for animals that I absolutely respect.

She is soooo cuuuuuuute. I wanna pick her up and hug her tight how has no-one adopted her

Great news! Love a positive story to start my day!

Doggy!!! I love dogs, very much, a lot.

Maximize!

The Beast Wars (totally unfounded) rumour mill continues.

Aww.

I love dogs... and me and my wife know all about how it is living with epilepsy. My wife's is severe and uncontrolled by medication, so she can't work and requires a lot of extra support.

I'd bring her home with me in a heartbeat. Who could say no to that face?! She'd fit right in at home with us.

I'm not a big fan of that breed but it's always nice to see a dog get the love and treatment they deserve. Hopefully this will help her get a good home.

Sir Anthony Hopkins has joined the cast of The Last Knight!

Transformers: The Last Knight has today added a real Knight to its cast. As revealed via the film’s official Twitter feed, Sir Anthony Hopkins has joined the Michael Bay film in a mystery role. Take a close look, too, at the image posted with the announcement as it offers another new logo for the film.

In a surprising - though we have seen high-calibre actors previously - turn of events for the live action Transformers movie franchise, the official Twitter account for The Last Knight has announced the participation of Academy Award winner Anthony Hopkins in the fifth Michael Bay film featuring the Cybertronians! Check out the image and tweet below, as Hopkins is welcomed to the folds including Isabela Moner, Mark Wahlberg, and Josh Duhamel.

The man, the myth, the legend – help us welcome Sir Anthony Hopkins to the #transformers universe.

And the new logo for the film, which appears to be Optimus's head in a "V" which is a Roman numeral 5.

I thought we had seen that with the Snapchat story..?

Is he gonna be actually in the film or just voice?
He's just done a film with Josh Duhamel so maybe they got to be friends and got him interested in doing a role?

Odin himself, eh? This should be interesting...

Plot twist: They are connected, and this is actually a new Marmaduke film.

Oh...I get it. The "Last Knight" is actually Sir Anthony Hopkins voice or no ...Good show Mr. Bay Good show. Whoever thought we'd get a knighted actor in a Transformers movie.

The dog thing I support, simply because I adore dogs and it's horrible to think she's been rejected that many times, honestly, I'd consider adopting that face.

BUT, OMG this reeks of PR material. I'm all for the dog, but splashing this up as news (not on this site, i mean in general), is such an obvious move to generate an "aww" factor that it stinks. Whatcha want to bet the "role" is equivalent to Bonecrusher's in ROTF, one funny scene and then out.

Anthony Hopkins is awesome, but I dread his role, human or Cybertronian or, hell, Creator (I could see him as a Judge Quintesson's voice).

It's Hugo Weaving, Leonard Nemoy, Ken Wantanabe all over again...Excitement over a spectacular actor, disappointment when they are subjected to a side role or not given the writing they deserve.

Please be Unicron, please be Unicron, please be Unicron...

I'll take Alpha Trion as a runner-up, but COME ON. Imagine Hopkins' voice doing a couple Orson Wells' lines. "This... cannot be... my... DESTINY!"

Wow wow wow, now we are goin serious! I cant wait for a teaser!

...so it would've been better if the dog became an integral part of the cast?

Seems to me like they had the chance to mention a cute/nice thing, or not mention the cute/nice thing. Don't think we can fault 'em for choosing the former.

My brother says the joke about this on Twitter is "He lost a bet."

You do know that Bay is an animal lover especially for dogs.

Better that, than getting tragically blown up/dying, like most 'roles' in a bay tf film; I wonder if the street-wise girl will meet this dog on the streets and form a bond with her, seems the most likely, and it already looks the part

Wait... These movies FEATURE cybertronians? Interesting. I always thought they were the side characters.

If they can just add Any Given Sunday's version of Al Pacino, I'll go make some popcorn now! Looking forward to seeing Anthony Hopkins, one of my favorite actors of all time, join the Transformers franchise.

So long as they don't turn him into a bad joke.

I can definitely see Hopkins as another human villain. But until more information about the plot is released, I will hold my perspective of his role as a Gould/Attinger character.

But let's not forget the real stars of the movie...

Hopkins is beyond amazing as an actor. He is one of the acting titans of his generation. However that still won't be enough to make Michael Bay ' s s**tfest worth watching. Still not gonna see this garbage and watch it further drag the good name of the transformers through the mud. No 9ffense to Mr. Hopkins and I know that even when this garbage bombs at the box office his reputation will remain untarnished.

Well, the maniacal laughter doesn't help

Bruh, new Bumblebee alt mode revealed!
https://twitter.com/michaelbay/status/7 ... 8729499648



Now, that's badass.

Bumblebee has been confirmed to make a return in Transformers: The Last Knight via the transformersmovie Instagram account and Michael Bay's Twitter account. Bumblebee will be a custom built 2016 Chevy Camaro.

MichaelBay wrote:Bee is back! @generalmotors really got it done with this custom-built 2016 Camaro. #transformers

Hit the jump and let us know what you think of Bumblebee's new alt-mode.

Remember to keep your browsers pointed to Seibertron.com for the latest in Transformer news, the largest Transformers galleries found on the web and the liveliest Transformers discussion this side of a space bridge.

Agh! I literally just sent this in to Va'al.

YES! Love the new Camaro, can't wait for the deluxe figure!

Now we just need to see Bee in his robot mode. . .

As if they'd leave Bumblebee out. Liking the new Camaro form. Interested to see how his robot form adjusts. Wasn't sure about the AoE robot form cos it was so different to his previous but I really love it now and my custom painted version of the Deluxe figure is among my fave TF figures ever.

Interesting...

Not a bad car mode. It's not as easily visible from the angle of the photo, but the black stripe does remain on the hood and the roof.

Re: Carnivius_Prime
IKR! After I painted my AOE Bee up he looks absolutely amazing. I even used the clips off of some yellow mechanical pencils to form the claws on his plasma cannon.

rather have hound back, and Drift, and crosshairs.. but really, would rather have Ratchet and Ironhide back,because they died in a very sad and unnecessary way. I do see that random death does take the best of us... but Ratchets death was the most brutal I think, next to leadfoot.

Poyguimogul wrote:rather have hound back, and Drift, and crosshairs.

Don't worry by next month we should know if they are coming back or not and I heavily belive that Hound at the least will be back due to being more involved in Aoe then Bumblebee (no seriously I believe Hound had at least as much screen time as Bumblebee).


Remember that one of the first pieces of news for AOE was the alt modes of Optimus, Drift and Crosshairs hell shortly after we found out that Hound was going to be in the movie and unlike with Drift and Crosshairs Hound's name was revealed from the get go and since he was the only other Autobot in the film besides Bee and Prime to heavily interact with Humans and be called by name by the humans show that Hound was probably planned to be in the movie for a long time.

Kinda reminds me of prime Bee's alt-mode. I like it!

I would like to see this.

Via the Facebook page/community Transformers Cars, we have a look at a military vehicle which closely resembles Hound from Age of Extinction - though a little more trim. Indication that this may be a new alt-mode for the John Goodman character in The Last Knight come from the logo on the side of the vehicle, and the Decepticon-esque badges on the door. Check them out below, and speculate away in the Energon Pub!

Wish he'd lose the stupid beard

Windsweeper wrote:Wish he'd lose the stupid beard

Oh HELL no! He'd better keep that beard!

I bet that the decepticon marks are how Hound keeps count of how many cons he killed during the war, only excuse I can think of.

Wish he was more like his G1 character.

Not a really drastic change is it really but I like it.

Also beards have been part of transformers since G1 so it's far too late to complain about it now.
