Transformers 7 To Co-Star Judas And The Black Messiah's Dominique Fishback – Report

Dominique Fishback has joined the cast of the next Transformers movie. According to Collider, the Judas and the Black Messiah star will join Anthony Ramos in the film.

Fishback is reportedly in "final negotiations" to co-star with Ramos (In the Heights, Hamilton) in the seventh movie in the Transformers series. The film will be directed by Steven Caple Jr. (Creed II) and written by Joby Harold (John Wick Chapter 3, the upcoming Army of the Dead). The title and plot details are currently unknown, but it's scheduled to hit theaters on June 24, 2022.

The movie is actually one of two new Transformers movies in the works at Paramount. In March, it was reported that Charm City Kings director Angel Manuel Soto and The Defenders writer Marco Ramirez had been hired to make another film that would be separate from the main universe of Transformers movies featured in Michael Bay's five films and the spin-off Bumblebee.

There are several animated Transformers projects on the way, too. In May last year, it was reported that Toy Story 4's Josh Cooley was making a new animated movie, and there's also a 26-episode Nickelodeon series in production. The final season of the animated Netflix show Transformers: War For Cybertron is also expected later this year.
