Transformers 4 Shows Off Optimus Prime, a Corvette, and a Bugatti

Michael Bay just posted on his official website that filming is officially underway on Transformers 4. The new Transformers movie will be the first without Shia LaBeouf in a starring role and will instead have Mark Wahlberg (who recently worked with Bay on Pain and Gain) tackling the lead role. Other human actors co-starring with transforming robots this time around include Nicola Peltz, Jack Reynor, Stanley Tucci, Sophia Myles, and Li Bingbing. And in support of the start of filming, Michael Bay and Paramount Pictures have released the first Autobots photos of Optimus Prime as well as the C7 Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse from the action movie. The photos were snapped on Highway 163 near Monument Valley.
 
Transformers 4 arrives on June 14, 2014.
