Czech Republic guide website Expats is reporting that part of the principal photography of Transformers 5 will take place in Czech Republic, following an invitation from prime minister Bohuslav Sobotka.
The site also states that producers were spotted location scouting in the country.
Take the news with a grain of salt until we hear from Director Michael Bay and company.
We previously reported that Transformers 5 will be filmed in UK and surrounding European counties and the director was seen location scouting at Stonehenge.

Yeah I seen the movie hostel. 1 and 2. I'm a huge movie watcher. Very interesting how they are switching things up for this movie taking it to smaller location markets or something like that.

Yes Yes yes. I live for this. Counting the days until the bots hit Europe on the big screen.

Czechoslovakia divided into two sovereign states, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, in 1993.

The Czech Republic and Slovakia have been separate nations for almost a quarter of a century, lol.

An interesting old-world location.
Is it okay to call it as Czechoslovakia? Or is that another country?

I think there will be just another useless human scene. Doubt they will transport all that cars to Europe.

I've only seen some pictures of Prague, but I know the film From Hell was filmed there on the account it holds a look and feel to that of Victorian London in parts.
Could be they'll film some parts in London and maybe some in Prague for other sections but be stand ins for London.
Sounds like this film will be globetrotting.

The base attack and the desert battle in the first film took place in Qatar.

And every one except the first has taken place in more than one country.

Detroit already is a post apocalyptic stand in…
Honestly I hope this means we get a big russian transformer out of this.

The Czech Republic is just an extremely cheap place to film, it very rarely ever actually serves as itself in the movies filmed there.

The movie would be good for tourism
