Brenton Thwaites and
Nicola Peltz look set to round out the leading cast of
Transformers 4 after a lengthy screen testing process. Peltz will play
Mark Wahlberg’s daughter, while Thwaites will star as her biker boyfriend. Perhaps Michael Bay is trying to make Transformer 4’s lead characters cool rather than people who just stutter, “No, no, no” regardless of what is happening.
Peltz is best known for her role in
The Last Airbender and will soon appear in the TV series Bates Motel, which is a prequel to Psycho. Thwaites made a name for himself on Home and Away, and as a result follows in the footsteps of Isabel Lucas who later appeared in Transformers 2. He is set to appear in
Maleficent alongside
Angelina Jolie.
The movie is yet to get an official title, synopsis, or filled cast. However, the film is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on June 27th, 2014. It will be interesting to see who else Michael Bay lines up to appear in Transformers 4 in some capacity.
