The photo features Bay himself alongside the new Autobot and actress Isabella Moner, who is set to co-star in the new film with Mark Wahlberg, who is set to return. Bay however has already confirmed that this will be his last in the franchise, telling Rolling Stone that: “This is the last one. I have to pass the reins to someone else. J.J. [Abrams] told me, ‘You’re the only guy that could do this.’ But it’s time to move on. One more.”
