Transformers: Rise of the Beasts was originally slated for a June 24, 2022, release. Now, Paramount has pushed back its debut date to June 9, 2023. Even though the film got a new release date, Transformers 7 has wrapped filming. Now it's up to the post-production team to complete the film, which is no small task due to the number of special effects required to make Optimus Prime and the rest of the team come to life on the big screen. A mixture of practical effects, stunts, and CGI is what brings these characters to life, which is why the Transformers films cost a lot of money to make and take a good amount of time to release.

Many are divided as to what they want from a Transformers movie. The Michael Bay movies all brought something different to the table in terms of the quality and the story. The new movie Bumblebee is one of the favorites among fans and critics. As a prequel, Bumblebee focused more on the characters and narrative rather than the effects.

It's very impressive that Transformers managed to attract a big audience and continues to have a huge draw factor. All these years later, Transformers is still a well-liked property with popular video games and animated shows. The lore goes deep and fans continue to want to see it built upon in the live-action cinematic series.

Transformers 7 is set to have a unique vision that will give characters more depth. The film will introduce a new corner of the universe to fans and for many viewers, this will be their first time seeing The Beast Wars aspect of the Transformers story.
