'Transformers 5' Plot Rumors, News: Optimus Prime Unites With Ultra Magnus, Red Alert and Override

Even though the transformers 'Transformers 5' film is still far off from its release date, fans of the franchise are looking into rumors about which types of robots they can expect to see. One fan page went ahead and provided a list of purported Autobots and Decepticons that stand a good chance to be seen on the big screen when the movie releases.

According to the Comic Central City Facebook page, Optimus Prime will boost his squadron with mechanoids Ultra Magnus, Red Alert and Override.

Another report went on to say that Ultra Magnus stems from his connection to life-long Transformer villain Galvatron, who appeared in the latest installment of the series, 'Transformers: Age of Extinction'.

Beyond all that, other rumors claim that the major Decepticon brute will get three new lieutenants - Cyclonus, Scourge, and Blitzwing.

On that note, the aforementioned machines will be joined by Quintessons, the ancient and dark race that's responsible for creating the Transformers.

Rumor has it that in the upcoming film, the Quintessons will be the primary adversaries for the main robot characters. If this turns out to be true, then 'Transformers 5' will surely be re-visiting the former robot factory Cybertron.

Moving on, according to Michael Bay, director of 'Transformers: Age of Extinction', 'Transformers 5' will be the first movie of a new trilogy and, hence, fans can expect to see Maximals and Predacons and even Dinobots in the upcoming installment.

However, while fans see this as a possibility of a Beast Wars plot, reports suggest that it will be more appropriate to have a standalone spin-off for such a big narrative.
