Well, that's a hell of an upgrade. Today, Michael Bay revealed yet another autobot from the upcoming TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT (which we already told you about in our previous scoop, along with some rather surprising story details) to be Drift, the Samurai 'bot from AGE OF EXTINCTION that originally changed into a helicopter/Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse. Well, now he's changing brands and paint scheme in the form of a black/red Mercedes AMG GT-R.

At this stage of the game, either you're all in for the Bayformers or you're tuckered out. I wouldn't fault you for either, as I can see the guilty pleasure allure, as well as the sheer exhaustion moviegoers may have of the series thus far. No word of original Drift voice actor Ken Watanabe will be back, but if he is I'll be holding out for a "Let them fight!" line to be worked in somewhere.
TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT brings the Baysplosions on June 23, 2017.
