The wheels are literally in motion for the 5th and latest “Transformers” movie, “The Last Knight”.
Director Michael Bay took to Twitter to release a total of 8 new character-centric motion posters. These new motion posters showcase old Autobot and Decepticon favourites as well as some new characters.
We’ve previously seen most of these characters before — Optimus Prime, Barricade, Hound, Megatron, Hot Rod, Bumblebee — but the “British” robot Cogman and the tiny Vespa Transformer Sqweeks are new additions to the franchise.
Cogman is described as a “centuries-old man servant who happens to have anger issues, among other things”. He will be serving Sir Edmund Burton (played by Anthony Hopkins), who has an important role in “Transformers: The Last Knight”.
As for Sqweeks, not much has been revealed about this character other than the fact that he is an Autobot, who is also “human’s best friend”. This small Transformer looks like he was made from scrap metal and spare parts. Don’t you think so?
