Transformers 5 release date has been set on 2016. Paramount has announced the fifth installment to the giant-robot themed franchise according to Channel24's article.

It has been previously revealed by director Michael Bay that Transformers: Age of Extinction is going to pave way for two more films.

"It's kind of like a new Transformers," Bay explained. "We had three, the first trilogy, and this is going to be the next one." The next...trilogy? "Yeah, it's the first of a new trilogy," he admitted after shortly hesitating. "I'm not necessarily sure that I'm doing [the others], but that's what it's meant for."

It's not yet confirmed if Bay would be back to doing Transformers 5 that is due for release on 2016.

Just like Bay, first time human lead star Mark Wahlberg is also not sure if he'll be back for the slated sequels.

"Some people think of this as a sequel. We thought of it more as a stand-alone thing. I've never done a sequel, " Wahlberg talking about Transformers 4 and the upcoming sequel.

In his previous interview with The Daily Beast, Wahlberg revealed some more Transformers 4 spoilers and how "Age of Extinction" differs from its prequels.

"It was a tighter script, and its own stand-alone thing. I think the emotional core of it, the human element, is going to be extremely powerful," Transformers 4 cast Mark Wahlberg revealed. "It's an ordinary man trying to do extraordinary things to save his daughter and keep her alive-and this boyfriend he didn't know anything about. He'd had a child when he was in high school and his wife passed away, and the promise he'd made to her was that she wouldn't date any boys until she graduated and that she'd be at the graduation-because we weren't due to the pregnancy. So there's an anchor to it and a realness to it that I like a lot."

"Entourage" movie producer Mark Wahlberg, who plays the role of Cade Yeager, an inventor who accidentally discovers a supposed "extinct" giant robot, kicks off the story of the new film. The 42-year old actor and producer will play the father of Tessa Yeager who is portrayed by "The Last Airbender" actress Nicola Peltz. In addition, Jack Reynor plays Tessa Yeager's secret love interest.

Transformers 4: Age of Extinction will feature actors Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Sophia Myles, and T.J. Miller. The movie is scheduled to hit theaters nationwide on June 27, 2014 while Transformers 5 release date is scheduled two year after.
