The Transformers movie franchise will take on the Beast Wars storyline from the late 1990s in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura and director Steven Caple Jr. announced on Tuesday.
Production is just starting on the feature, but Di Bonaventura and Caple still did reveal a fair amount about Rise of the Beasts. Like Travis Knight's 2018 film Bumblebee, which was set in 1987, the new film will be set in 1994, so as not to intersect with the five Transformers movies directed by Michael Bay (though those films weren't exactly sticklers for the laws of time and space, either).
