Many reports claim that the two new movies that are in development will focus on building multiple story arcs.

“We are already working on two projects and both have scripts under development,” Di Bonaventura told Japanese outlet Cinema. “One is the latest in the main family series following the events of Transformers: The Last Knight and the other is a sequel to Bumblebee. So, we are thinking of films where Optimus Prime and Bumblebee will be the buddies, but when Optimus and Bumblebee are the movies of the protagonists … how human beings get involved in their drama In the first place, the size is different between human beings and their’s …. It’s a worrying point (laughs).”
Released in 2018, Bumblebee was appreciated by many and also ended up with a 92 per cent Certified Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, the most notable for any franchise film. However, financially, Bumblebee earned only $465.2 million worldwide from a reported $102 million production budget. Transformers: Dark of the Moon and Transformers: Age of Extinction outline the franchise with a $1.12 billion and $1.1 billion box office collection, respectively.
