Said Bay:
"The Mark Wahlberg T4 rumor is just a rumor. Mark and I are talking about another film project." So let speculation about one project end, and speculation about another project begin.
So far the facts are that sales of toys by Hasbro were down coming off the last Transformers film and the shareholders are speculating that it was due to the fact that there were no new Autobots introduced in the film. Besides this point, everything else we've heard thus far has been rumor. It's rumored that the next film will feature a new female lead and that while Shia LaBeuf will not be returning a few supporting actors from the trilogy could return in some capacity. With the heavy VFX required for the film and a June 2014 release date we should receive more concrete news sooner rather than later.
