Mark Wahlberg is officially in Transformers 4 now

We know of course that earth will be attacked by outer space robots at least one more time, but what we haven’t known until today is what human will stand there reacting while a different set of outer space robots, the ones with less growly voices, defend us. But now we do, thanks to Michael Bay and his official blog, though “thanks” really does not seem to be the right word.

After an exceptionally successful collaboration on the upcoming “Pain and Gain,” Michael Bay has cast Academy Award®-nominee Mark Wahlberg in the highly anticipated “TRANSFORMERS 4.” The film will hit theaters June 27th, 2014.
“Mark is awesome. We had a blast working on “Pain and Gain” and I’m so fired up to be back working with him. An actor of his caliber is the perfect guy to re-invigorate the franchise and carry on the Transformers’ legacy,” said Bay.

And even better guy to re-invigorate the franchise would be the kid at the movie theater, who instead of giving you a ticket to Transformers 4, gives you a ticket to a different, better movie.
