Update: Michael Bay has updated his official website with a message that this informatin is false:

Michael Bay wrote:Actor announcement on some web sites last night about Transformer cast joining Mark are completely false.


Those of you who have been keeping up with the Transformers 4 casting news as it trickles out will likely remember the news from last month that director Michael Bay had narrowed down his list of potential young actresses and actors to play Wahlberg's daughter and her boyfriend. twitch is reporting the selections have been made and we can look forward to seeing Nicola Peltz and Brenton Thwaites in these roles. According to twitch Thwaites will play "Peltz's biker boyfriend", though initial casting reports stated the character was a race car driver from Texas.

Hmm... they aren't big names, though the girl's known from Shyamalan's The Last Airbender train wreck (she played Katara).

Guess we'll have to wait and see how they do.

Gee, more teen demographic appeal. Yay. :-|

At first I was excited. Now, a great big cloud of pessimism hovers over me. I've lost interest.

You really expected anything else? At least these two look more like high school-aged teenagers this time.

Plus, they're relatively unknowns. They have more of a clean slate to start off with than Shia did, so we'll get to see them in these roles without too much of their past work to base them on.

dont care who they are. the more i see castings for TF4 the more i dont care about the humans in it. the robots should be the star of the movies. not these idiots. probably the only thing i will care about from the new movie are the toys.

So since someone is supposed to be a racecar driver.
Will that mean the wreckers are back?

The girl is pretty but I hope her role is actually a good role not just eye candy.

And as for the male character. I really dont know.

It makes to change to have a teenager played by a teenager.

The film is still 2 years away right? No need to get worked up about details yet.

Wow, sensible sentence, I was going to post "And let the bitching begin!"

But it already started. And please don't start with the whole "it should be about the robots not the humans". Are you suffering from memory loss? You said that with movie I, movie II, movie III.

That whine should be conserved for a new Transformers movie series with another director.

wait, I'm ranting about rants.... sigh, IRONMAN 3 in a few months!!!!

Nice good to have fresh faces!

there needs to be humans in Transformers, as annoying as some might be if not why would they need to be robots in disguise

Dunno who they are, nor do I care. While Mark Wahlberg's casting kinda interests me, no other casting aside from VA's for the TFs does.

Yes, because lord knows we need another teenager romance in a Transformer movie.

"What, giant robots are killing everyone in the city, but WHAT ABOUT MY GIRLFRIEND?" #-o

Word has it that these two have been bumped down to supporting roles instead of leads. Therefore, Wahlberg is the star.
