But again: Transformers without Michael Bay sounds cool all by itself. So title isn't that important. But I'm sure that they figure somthing out.

I agree, especially the title here.

After the rumoured potential casting of Nickelodeon teenage star Isabela Moner, we have confirmation from the actress herself (from last week) on her Twitter account, about her involvement in the next instalment of in the Paramount live action movie Transformers franchise. Check out her short clip and tweet embedded below!

Pretty sure it's tongue in cheek.

ugh. kid stars

double ugh. ambivalent sarcasm

triple ugh. probably not sarcasm at all.

she doesn't even know anything about transformers, they should give the role to someone who knows something

Who else in the Bay flicks knows anything about Transformers? Maybe Tyrese Gibson? So what's the difference here?

I'm surprised so many are even considering taking the deadpan seriously It's a sadly neglected form of comedy.

a) How can you possibly confirm that? b) How would general Transformers knowledge influence an actor here? It's not like being able to list Soundwave's cassettes would have any impact on character acting.

A case could maybe be made for a VA voicing one of the TFs benefiting from knowledge of the franchise, although the only TFs with personalities similar to previous depictions are already voiced by legacy VAs.
