"Transformers 5" spoilers hint of a story arc that will revolve around the robots, instead of humans, and to make it action-packed as possible.

There were rumors that "Transformers 5" won't happen after the anemic showing of "Transformers: Age of Extinction" raking in just under $245 million domestically. But after a huge rebound in international sales, the fourth installment still earned $1.1 billion in box office receipts.

But Paramount will make sure not to take the audience for granted once again as it hired "Daredevil" TV series writer Steven S. DeKnight and "The Walking Dead's" Robert Kirkman to head a bunch of writers into penning a script for the fifth and probably last installment in the franchise.

Steven S. DeKnight talked about the fun atmosphere in drafting the script for "Transformers 5."

"It was a fantastic experience," he said. "One of the best experiences of that was when Steven Spielberg popped by one afternoon to just sit and talk and hear what we were working on. Everybody was about to throw up, they were so excited."

But the "Daredevil" writer is not talking "Transformers 5" spoilers.

"It remains to be seen. I think the biggest thing something like that does when you're dealing with a franchise that is so global and makes so much money is actually taking a moment to really think things out," he said.

Meanwhile, writer Akiva Goldsman previously talked about the process in writing the script for "Transformers 5" to Deadline.

"We will look at the toys, the TV shows, the merchandise, everything that has been generated by Hasbro, from popular to forgotten iterations, and establish a mythological time line," the writer said.

"It has been designed with a lot of visual help, toys, robots, sketches and writers and artists. After that super saturation, the writers will figure out not one, but numerous films that will extend the universe."

Watch out for more "Transformers 5" spoilers which will be published here when they come along.
