Wahlberg also spoke to the LA Times about the fact that Transformers 4 was not a sequel and that he has never done a sequel in his career.

While there are many ways to interpret what the actor meant by that, could it also mean that he is averse to doing sequels? If that is the fact would it affect his decision to take on the trilogy that is to begin with Transformers 4.
The actor also spoke about how filming for Ted in the past gave him some experience working with imaginary characters which are later worked in with the help of CGI.

"Ted was definitely a good warmup," Wahlberg said. "With Ted, it was a more intimate setting. But this movie is much bigger and more intense. You've got eight Autobots talking to you at the same time. There's nothing but a pole or a stick really there. You've got to believe and totally commit. The most difficult part of acting is when you look ridiculous and have to confront the risk of looking foolish. You've got to be on the whole time. You can't phone it in."
Transformers: Age of Extinction will release on Jun. 27 2014.
