More Videos of Transformers 4 Filming Over the Weekend

A few more videos have popped up from Transformers 4 filming in downtown Detroit. The first video goes hand in hand with the pictures from yesterday as the cast discussed the scene with Michael Bay. It also goes with a scene description that was being filmed on Wednesday with Stanley Tucci and Jack Reynor running across the set carrying a large black bag. From there Tucci moves forward to have a conversation with a Transformer (the pole a crewmember is holding). Judging by the pole height and Mark Wahlberg's casual pose, probably an Autobot like Bumblebee.

The second video shows a Subway car (the Chicago one?) being dropped a little bit above the height of the People mover as "panicked" extras run screaming down the street. The last video goes with the image above from Jerry B. as the giant pagoda has some sizable explosions go off inside it and the street outside.

Sophia Myles on Detroit Set, More Videos Filming TF4

Saturday was another day of filming on the downtown Detroit set for Transformers 4. It seems security was beefed up around the Hong Kong, China set but Jerry B. did manage to snap a few images. I think his pics are the first I have seen of Sophia Myles on a Transformers 4 set since she joined the cast. Whatever was being filmed today seemed to involved the core actors as Michael Bay is seen discussing a scene with Mark Wahlberg, Nicola Peltz, Jack Reynor, Myles and Stanley Tucci. Myles outfit matches the outfit the unknown blonde girl from Thursday was wearing so safe to assume the pair that day are the stunt doubles (or stand-ins) for Myles and Tucci. Also below are a few videos. The first is from Friday and the other two are from Wednesday I think.

On a related note, Matt B. reports that Optimus Prime and the other vehicles are due to arrive on the set on Monday and that he was told the 2013 Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 Coup is the alt mode of Sideswipe.

Sophia Myles Pinching Self Over Joining Transformers 4

In what I think is her first published interview since joining Transformers 4 cast, actress Sophia Miles commented to the Belfast Telegraph about how excited she is to be part of the film. Sadly, info wise she revealed nothing except that her part seems tied into Stanley Tucci's part of which we also know nothing about. Thanks to Wynton R. for the link.

"We've been on it for a couple of months now. It's so exciting and so thrilling. I love working with the whole cast and Michael Bay is just an incredible director. I feel so privileged, I'm still pinching myself," she said.

"We're still shooting right now. We've been all over the world: we've been in Detroit, Chicago, Washington, Texas and a lot of it in Hong Kong and maybe parts in China."

"I haven't actually worked with Mark [Wahlberg] yet but I have lunch with him and his entourage whenever we're on set. They're the most hilarious people I've ever met," she continued.

"A lot of my work is with Stanley Tucci and he's just so funny. He's so talented and I have to not laugh at him being incredible, and that's one of the hardest things I've had to do on the film."

"I think it's going to be even better than the last ones and they were pretty great," she said, adding: "We've all been sworn to secrecy. I'd love to tell you more but I can't."

Sophia Myles Added To Transformers 4 Cast

The Wrap is reporting that Sophia Myles (Moonlight, MI-5) has joined the cast of Transformers 4 in a "major supporting role" that might be a scientist. This will add her to the already known leads of Mark Wahlberg, Nicola Peltz, Jack Reynor and Kelsey Grammer. Considering her lovely looks, I suspect it probably will evolve into a love interest of sorts for Wahlberg's character. I enjoyed watching her on Moonlight (a vampire series cancelled just before vampire stuff became popular again with Twilight) so please with the addition. Transformers 4 starts principal photography in June or July in Detroit or Chicago (reports vary). Thanks to Wynton R. for the link.
