“The two main villains are Decepticon muscle cars,” says Bumblebee director Travis Knight, “When the cast is too big, and you have a finite amount of time, there’s only so much you can do to create an investment in them,” Knight says. “This is a more personal, intimate, and character-driven story, so it felt right to keep the villain plot relatively simple and contained. If you keep things lean, you can add a lot of other stuff on top of it that makes it more enjoyable.”
So first a Decepticon seeker; now they have trackers as well, so a total of 4 Transformers characters (including Bumblebee) will appear in the movie. Hopefully, we get more info and other characters that will appear when film showcases in the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con.
