It seems that Mark Wahlberg's Cade Yeager is not on the right side of the law in the upcoming 'Transformers 5' movie. The Character is told to be a fugitive during the movie and his life will be narrated by Anthony Hopkins. The release of this fifth entry in the 'Transformers' franchise will be the first of the expanding universe that revolves around the sentient robots in disguise.

Sets in the aftermath of 'Transformers : Age of Extinction' Cade Yeager is a fugitive now according to cinemablend. That said by Mark Wahlberg himself in an interview

 "He's like a man on the run, which is fun. It's a bit of an adventure story. ... You meet up with Cade now, and he's living elsewhere, and he's basically had to go on his own on the run... to protect his daughter and make sure that she is no longer hunted in the way that Cade is. But yeah, [he's] a loner."

While Anthony Hopkins role is yet to be announced, there are some that he will merely provide his voice as the narrator of the story. But still, there's no confirmation on the subject.

'Transformers : The Last Knight' is told to be the foundation for the expanding 'Transformers' movie universe. YahooMovies states that a whole new spin-offs and other titles revolving the adventures of these robots will be announced in the near future. There's already a Bumblebee spin-off expected to launched somewhere around 2018. The franchise producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura states in an interview

"And this movie, the two lines of mythology in a sense give you freedom to go a lot of different places later on that may or may not directly relate to another movie, but it's opening up the universe in a way that I think, in that way it's probably the most provocative, in terms of the movie. It's opening a really large universe of what Transformers is, and where they've come from, and how we relate to them, and how they relate to themselves."

'Transformers : The Last Knight' will be released at June 23, 2017 and stars Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, Isabela Moner and Sir Anthony Hopkins.
