Apparently, instead of Jonathan Liebesman directing “Transformers 5,” he will be focusing on overseeing the spinoff movie or movies from the franchise.
There have been previous reports that apart from Mark Wahlberg, Megan Fox will be returning to the fifth installment of the “Transformers” franchise.
The name of Megan Fox was floated following the supposed takeover of the director’s chair by Jonathan Liebesman for “Transformers 5.” Liebesman and Fox worked together in “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” reboot movie last year.
When asked however for confirmation if she plans to return to the “Transformers” franchise, Megan Fox said that she will be interested to reprise her role in the movie if her original co-star Shia LaBeouf will also return.
But it seems that Shia LaBeouf is not interested in returning to the franchise. Not only was he uninterested, he also said a negative mouthful about the franchise, on working with Michael Bay, and even poked fun at Bumblebee, who is his role’s main protector in the first two “Transformers” movies.
