The Transformers franchise kicked off 10 years ago with the first Transformers movie, which turned young stars Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox into household names.
The Chinese market will also be integral to the success of Transformers: The Last Knight.
This final Transformers franchise movie from director Michael Bay should have no trouble taking the top spot, with a projected three-day opening weekend of $84.7 million, with a five-day total from Wednesday through Sunday reaching $157.2 million.
There aren’t enough movie reviews posted for Transformers: The Last Knight to warrant a Rotten Tomatoes score, but the franchise has never been a hit with critics.
