Speaking to IGN, Transformers:
Age of Extinction producer, Lorenzo di Bonaventura said that they are no longer
thinking about doing a new trilogy, and that they are planning one movie at a time.
"We're not not planning on doing a trilogy. It's
really a one-movie-at-a-time philosophy. It feels a little arrogant. Both
[director Michael Bay] and I feel like it's a little arrogant of us to presume
success each time. We know our fans are really out there and they're going to
come, so we presume a certain amount of success. But all the energy will be
thrown into the next movie, if we're lucky enough to get there."
One of the trends right now, is
spin-offs, The Amazing Spider-Man is doing it with Sinister Six and Venom, so
is it possible that we might see one in the Transformers universe?
"I think one of the things that people
underestimate about the Transformers mythology is how rich it is," he
continued. "If you actually look at the bible, if you would, there is an enormous
number of characters; there's a helluva lot of storylines, etcetera. Honestly,
there's been no discussion of it because we've been in the business of making
it bigger and bigger. I think a lot of those spinoffs tend to happen when
something's plateaued. We're not at that place yet, hopefully. We're going to
find out with the audience."
Bonaventura was also asked if it was possible that the Transformers would ever go to
space in future films.
"We've debated space," he said. "We've debated whether we should ever shoot
anything in space or not, and I don't think we've come to that conclusion."
One of the things that most fans complaint about is
the very Human heavy stories that the franchise as focused on.
"There are attractive notions to it, and
unattractive," he continued. "I think the unattractive, or the trick of it,
is that we want our humans with us. So going to space might force an
all-Transformers movie, and while I think some fans would love that, I think
other fans would be disappointed they don't have humans. So I think that's the
creative decision we've got to face about that idea."
