At a Q&A at the annual trade show, Mipcom, Hasbro chief Steven J. Davis confirmed that will indeed be four more Transformers sequels. Davis said that over a three-month period, he and his team (which includes writer Akiva Goldsman who won an Academy Award for A Beautiful Man) plotted out “the next 10 years of the Transformers franchise,” Variety reports.

Transformers 5 is the next film in line and will be followed by Transformers 6, 7, and 8. Paramount has already confirmed that the franchise would be expanding with sequels and spinoffs, with Goldsman spearheading the writers room. Other writers who have worked on or will be working on the Hasbro films include Ken Nolan (of Black Hawk Down), Robert Kirkman (the creator of Walking Dead), Art Marcumand Matt Holloway (of Iron Man), Jeff Pinkner (of Amazing Spider-Man 2), and Steven DeKnight (of Daredevil).

A director for Transformers 5 has not been chosen yet and Michael Bay has already tweeted that “it’s not official” that he’ll be directing this film, like he did the one before it. “I have not committed to any idea as of yet,” he wrote.
