De officiële synopsis van de derde Transformers film, getiteld Transformers: The Dark of the Moon, is vandaag uitgelekt. De film, die op 1 juli 2011 in 3D in de bioscopen moet verschijnen, heeft in de hoofdrollen Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, John Malkovich en Frances McDormand.

The Autobots Bumblebee, Ratchet, Ironhide and Sideswipe led by Optimus Prime, are back in action, taking on the evil Decepticons, who are determined to avenge their defeat in 2009’s Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. In this new movie, the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There’s new characters too, including a new villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime “Transformers” character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth.
