In a recent interview Mark Wahlberg spoke about the role of the Dinobots in the Transformers 4: Age of Extinction and also about how they evolved and who they would be fighting for.

Comic Movie News revealed Wahlberg's quotes in which he went into some detail about the Dinobots, who are one of major draws in the franchise this time around.

"If you look at the Hasbro library of characters, there are some that are incredibly beloved and these are examples of that," Wahlberg said. "They're natural candidates to bring into our new-look version of the franchise. They fans are crazy for these guys. They've had a lot of attention historically so we knew that whenever we brought them in it would be met with a huge reaction. The way the Dinobots come to life is spectacular. They're not the easiest bunch to control, either. It's pretty awesome how they evolved, how they took the form of those dinosaurs. Then to see what Optimus has to do to get them to comply and save humanity, it's pretty incredible. They have everything (when asked if they have weapons from the cartoons and comics). Everything you can imagine. They're giant dinosaurs that are also robots... What's not to love about that?"

Jack Reynor also added that director Michael Bay had a lot to do with making the dinobots look like rockstars.

"They run around blowing shit up, just generally being crazy," he said. "I think if there's anybody in the world who can bring robot dinosaurs to life and can make them incredibly cool, it's Michael Bay. I think [audiences'] minds are going to be blown when they see them on the screen."

Transformers: Age of Extinction will hit theaters on June 27, 2014.
