Showbiz Spy originally reported that Jason Statham was the front runner to take over for Shia Beouf and take the Transformers franchise in a darker direction. Speaking on his personal website,
Shoot For The Edit Michael Bay had the following to say regarding the Jason Statham rumors:
"No completely false. No 4th Transformers movie even exists right now. Thus no one is being considered at this time. How bout, just enjoy the movie out right now."
-Michael
As previously reported, Michael Bay has stated that this is
most likely his last Transformers movie. Based on his response, it would appear that the Statham rumors have touched a nerve, so is it possible that Bay isn't completely opposed to returning for a fourth installment?
Michael Bay felt the need to weigh in on the Jason Statham rumors. Does that mean the door is still open for him to return for a 4th installment?

I would also like to share with you guys the Bay love-fest video showing on the homepage of his personal website. Strangely, no words from Ror's review were used.
