With production continuing onTransformers: The Last Knightin the U.K., a slew of videos have surfaced that tease plenty of new details about thisaction-packed sequel. We’ve already seen plenty of behind-the-scenes footage fromTransformers 5, including explosions and high-octane action, and we get more where that came from in these latest videos. DirectorMichael Bayalso reveals an intriguing device known as the Room Roll, featuringMark WahlbergandLaura Haddockdoing a death defying stunt.
The latest of these videos to surface onFacebookfeatures a huge device known as the “Room Roll.” This device can actually turn a massive room upside down, with starsMark WahlbergandLaura Haddock"going for a ride," asMichael Bayputs it. Both stars are seen hanging on for dear life as the room rotates around them, an experience thatLaura Haddockdescribes as “f—ing weird.” Unfortunately, it isn’t quite clear where in the story this scene is set, or if there are other scenes that utilize the “Room Roll.”
We also have a number of earlier videos that have debuted over the past few weeks on the franchise’s Facebook. One of these older videos showcases a London car chase, where a number of vehicles, including the upgradedBumblebee, are seen speeding through the street. Another video entitled “Epic Journey” offers a glimpse at numerous soldiers climbing up a hill, includingJosh Duhamel’s Lennox. DirectorMichael Bayalso utilized the Facebook Live feature on the set in a video from this past Thursday, where the director reveals they’re in their last few days in the U.K. before moving to Africa.
The franchise’s Facebook also unveiled aStarscreamvideo featuring footage from the previous movies, along with anotherMichael Baylive video which teases that the filmmaker was shooting a medieval battle scene. The director shows the fans some of “his friends,” posing with a group of actors in medieval costumes, before revealing that the first teaser trailer will arrive in either November or December. The medieval warriors seen inMichael Bay’s live video most likely are part of scenes that involve King Arthur (Liam Garriganand Merlin (Santiago Cabrera). While we don’t know exactly how they fit into the story, it is rumored that Optimus Prime returns to Earth searching for an artifact that ties into King Arthur and Merlin. Hopefully we’ll see these characters when the first trailer arrives in a few months.
