The "Transformers" franchise may appear to be dead in the water after Paramount pulled the sixth film in the main series from its schedule, but that's not so because "Bumblebee" is still coming right at you later this year.
"Bumblebee" will take the series back in time to the 1980s, thus serving as a prequel to the main series as well as a spinoff. As often happens in these things, the trailer shows us Bumblebee striking up a relationship with a young woman named Charlie (Hailee Steinfeld) by accident — while Charlie is poking around under her beat up new yellow Beatle, she spots Bumblebee's real face.
