Transformers: The Last Knight trailer paints Optimus Prime as a villain

Still playing a little trailer catch-up, and the first trailer for Transformers: The Last Knight was on my list. Either you love them or you hate them, but Michael Bay’s Transformers movies have made dump trucks of cash. That means they’ll probably continue to make them until we stop watching them. That said, the trailer for Transformers: The Last Knight does a little time hopping to show us the Autobots and Decepticons (and possibly their creators) have been influencing events on Earth for a long time. From the Middle Ages, through Nazi Germany, and right into Mark Wahlberg’s neighborhood, these robots in disguise are seemingly everywhere. Having just re-watched Age of Extinction, I’m actually looking forward to seeing this whole knight storyline played out. There’s potential for fun, which is always the case with a Transformers movie. It also looks like Bay may continue to bridge his Transformers worlds together with human characters from the Shia LeBeouf movies joining Wahlberg’s Cade Yeager. Again, could be fun.

Watch the first trailer for Transformers: The Last Knight, read a barebones plot synopsis, and check out a poster for the movie after the jump.

Is Optimus Prime the bad guy? Will we visit Cybertron? Will we finally get a good look at the beings who created Prime? There’s a lot of unanswered questions surrounding the movie so far, but the trailer poses them in a way that’s intriguing.

There’s not a lengthy plot synopsis giving us details about any of what’s going on right now, but here’s the barebones plot that’s floating around:

Having left Earth in search of the Creators, Optimus Prime returns. Two worlds collide but only one will survive.

Transformers: The Last Knight stars Mark WahlbergJosh Duhamel, Anthony HopkinsLaura HaddockIsabela MonerStanley TucciJohn Goodman, and John Turturro. The movie explodes into theaters on June 23, 2017.
