Transformers: Rise of the Beasts actor Peter Dinklage shares why he enjoys playing villains. The Transformers franchise continues with Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, the second film in the saga’s post-Michael Bay era. Iconic Transformers Optimus Prime and Bumblebee return as expected, but work with a lineup of new faces including crossover characters from the mid-'90s Beast Wars: Transformers animated series and new-to-the-franchise stars Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts was directed by Steven Caple Jr. and written by Joby Harold, Darnell Metayer, Josh Peters, Erich Hoeber, and Jon Hoeber.
