Michael Bay looks set to finally dust off the robot dinosaurs for Transformers 4 , with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura confirming the presence of the Dinobots in the upcoming sequel.

With on-set spies having leaked the inclusion of the Dinobots over recent weeks, di Bonaventura decided to spill the beans in an interview with Beijing News .

“I cannot disclose the specifics, but you can be sure that the arrival of the Dinobots will give the audience a lot to be excited about,” said the producer, sending fans into an online frenzy.

“The world's coolest, most exciting cars will appear in the film,” continues di Bonaventura, “including Chinese vehicles, so whether you are a car enthusiast or not, it will be a feast for the eyes.”

For non-aficionados, the Dinobots are very much as they sound: robots that transform into dinosaur-shaped robots. What that means for the plot of the fourth film remains to be seen, but it should certainly make for interesting viewing!



Directed by Michael Bay and co-starring Mark Wahlberg, Nicola Peltz, Stanley Tucci and Kelsey Grammar, Transformers 4 will open in the UK on 10 July 2014.
