Michael Bay needed a human actor to lead his Transformers franchise after it was revealed that Shia LaBeouf would not be coming back for a fourth installment, but today it's been announced that Bay's search is over. As has been rumored, the director has cast Mark Wahlberg as the human lead in Transformers 4.
自从希亚·拉博夫( Shia LaBeouf)宣布不再出演《 变形金刚》(Transformers )系列电影之后,迈克尔·贝 (Michael Bay)就需要重新寻觅一个人类来领导他的机器人大军。但今天,答案揭晓了,之前的传闻被确定, 马克·沃尔伯格 (Mark Wahlberg)将出演《变形金刚4》。
The filmmaker announced the casting on his personal website, the news coming less than 24 hours after the director revealed that internet rumors got him thinking about Wahlberg as a fit choice to lead the franchise. The two worked together on Bay's most recent film, Pain & Gain, a Coen-esque dark crime comedy about a pair of body builders (Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson) who try and set up a blackmail scheme, but manage to bumble it in the worst way possible.
迈克尔·贝在自己的官网上确认了这个消息,此消息的确认仅仅与之前他留言说“网上的谣言让他认真考虑马克·沃尔伯格出演《变形金刚》的可能”不到24小时。目前两人正在合作新片《付出与收获》(Pain and Gain),该片为黑色犯罪喜剧,讲述的是由马克·沃尔伯格和 道恩·强森 (Dwayne Johnson)饰演的两个健美运动员预谋的敲诈行径最终演变到无法收拾的地步。
In a statement about Wahlberg's casting Bay said, "Mark is awesome. We had a blast working on Pain and Gain and I’m so fired up to be back working with him. An actor of his caliber is the perfect guy to re-invigorate the franchise and carry on the Transformers’ legacy."
迈克尔·贝在声明中这样说:“马克·沃尔伯格是很棒的演员,在拍摄《付出与收获》时我们合作得很好,很高兴能和他再次合作。像他这样有才干的演员能给影片带来活力,使《变形金刚》的传奇得以延续。”
Bay also revealed a new logo for the film.Pain & Gain will be in theaters on April 26th and he will then almost immediately get to work on Transformers 4, which is scheduled to start production some time in the spring. The film is being produced by Don Murphy, Tom DeSanto, Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Ian Bryce, and executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Bay, Brian Goldner and Mark Vahradian. It will be distributed by Paramount Pictures, which is currently targeting a June 27, 2014 release date.
迈克尔·贝同时还公布了一张《变形金刚4》的新LOGO。 《付出与收获》将于2013年4月26日上映,之后迈克尔·贝将立刻投入《变形金刚4》的制作中去,预计将于明年春天开拍。该片依然由派拉蒙影业出品,预计2014年6月27日上映。
