Hailee Steinfeld has shared her thoughts on the direction of the Transformers series.
Ahead of her latest appearance as Gwen Stacy/Spider-Woman in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, actor Hailee Steinfeld sat down with The Hollywood Reporter to share her thoughts on her career, including the Transformers series. In December 2018, Steinfeld appeared in two movies: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and a Transformers spin-off named Bumblebee. In June 2023, she stars in the Spider-Verse sequel, but she is not appearing in the standalone Transformers sequel coming out this month.
“I don’t know that I knew the plans beyond that, but I like to take everything one step at a time,” said Steinfeld, reflecting on the decision not to make a direct sequel to Bumblebee. “I’ve gotten a lot better at that in my life. I tend to get ahead of myself, and so when it comes to these bigger projects that have whispers and more of a future and whatnot, I like to just focus on what’s in front of me and make that the best that I can.”
When do Transformers: Rise of the Beasts early reviews come out?

Fans have been excited to see what the reception is for the newest installment in the Transformers series. Luckily, they won’t have to wait very long.
