Bumblebee may not be getting another solo movie anytime soon, but the franchise is set to bring back the Autobots for a new film called Transformers: Rise of the Beasts which comes out this June.
We’ve had the first trailer for a while, but it’s just been announced on Tiktok that we’re going to begetting a new trailer for Rise of the Beasts next week on Thursday, April 27. Check this out:

Though the trailer has teased some returning Autobots and the Maximals, the only one we really get a good look at is Optimus Primal. Hopefully the upcoming teaser will reveal to us even more characters; we’ve yet to see the robot form of Cheetor as well as any of the Predacons—fingers crossed we finally get to see Megatron’s T-Rex version.
The series may have dropped the Unicron storyline that Michael Bay was setting up, but I think there’s still a lot of potential with the new timeline that Bumblebee has set up. We don’t know exactly where it’s going, but as long as things go boom and the movie has some great toys, I’m sure Transformers fans will keep coming for more.
Here’s the official description for the film:
Returning to the action and spectacle that have captured moviegoers around the world, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts will take audiences on a ‘90s globetrotting adventure and introduce the Maximals, Predacons, and Terrorcons to the existing battle on earth between Autobots and Decepticons.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is set to release in theaters on June 9.
