What We Know About the Bumblebee Movie So Far
Now that director Michael Bay has delivered what is supposedly his final Transformers film with The Last Knight, the franchise is ready to expand in new directions in the years to come. The first post-Bay Transformers movie will be Bumblebee, a prequel following the solo adventures of Optimus Prime's faithful lieutenant.
With the Bumblebee movie reportedly hitting theaters next summer, here's everything we know so far about this Transformers spinoff, including the director, possible cast and how the film will stand apart from the Transformers movies we've seen before.
We'll see if Bumblebee's production is impacted by the box office performance of Transformers: the Last Knight. The fifth Michael Bay-directed Transformers film debuted to a franchise-low $45.3 million domestically, though it raked in quite a bit more overseas.

Measuring Wonder Woman’s Comic Book Sales Power
The Wonder Woman movie has raked in $663.6 million worldwide, pleasing moviegoers and painting a bright cinematic future for the character, but what about her performance in the comic book market?
While Wonder Woman’s solo title has taken some breaks and seen five relaunches since its debut in 1942, it is considered to be one of DC Comics’ staple titles due to the character’s importance as a member of the Justice League, being one third of DC’s Trinity alongside Batman and Superman, and her status as a feminist icon and the world’s most popular female superhero. Yet despite all of that, the ongoing Wonder Woman series has never been a sales juggernaut on the level of Batman or Amazing Spider-Man that regularly dominate the monthly sales charts.
