Deadline reports that Paramount Studios finally has a script for Bumblebee, a spinoff of the confusingly popular Transformers franchise that has grossed more than NZ $5.2 billion across four movies. It will focus on fan favourite car Bumblebee, which has been a part of the franchise since the first movie. The script comes from Christina Hodson, who submitted it as part of the writer's room set up to expand the franchise. Though the four Transformers movies have all grossed highly, the movies have been poorly received. The fifth in the main series, The Last Knight, which will reunite Michael Bay and Mark Wahlberg, is set for release on June 22nd 2018.
