The sheer quantity of Transformers films released thus far is evidence alone that the franchise has had a successful box office run in years past. Another batch of films, G.I. Joe and its spin-offs, were similarly spawned from beloved action figures years ago, though its ticket sales are no match for Optimus Prime and company. But G.I. Joe has its loyal fan base, especially when news broke that a potential crossover film between the two canons might be happening. Fans certainly didn’t lose hope of the Transformers-G.I. Joe crossover after promising updates poured in as recently as last year, though its future now remains a bit uncertain as we’re now more than halfway through 2025.
Nonetheless, there’s still chatter among filmgoers, and MovieWeb recently had the chance to speak with one of the stars of multiple Transformers films, Josh Duhamel, to see if the longtime actor had any new intel on the potential project. “I haven’t heard that, but that’s a really good idea,” said Duhamel. “Maybe they have no intention of involving me in that. But I sure would like to.”

In the meantime, Duhamel plays a similarly gritty role in his latest film, Off the Grid, in which he brought a certain authenticity to the lead character of Guy. The reclusive genius lives tucked away in a small town with a certain government-sought asset Guy invented, which he now keeps protected so it doesn’t end up in the wrong hands. Duhamel opened up to MovieWeb about how he lives a similarly “off the grid” day-to-day in real life:
“What would life be like if the zombie apocalypse comes, and we had to, like, live off the land? Could I do it? And I’m not quite there yet, but I’m getting better at it, and I do love it. You know, when we first moved out to this place, it was very rough, rugged. It was like homesteading. If I’m being honest, we didn’t have electricity or water. What we had was a shack in the woods at the time, but we built it up over the last several years, and now we have running water and heat and electricity… It’s been fun to sort of test myself in some way, to learn how to do things.”
Duhamel continued:
“It gives me a little bit of purpose. You know, it’s something that I can teach my kids. They can teach their kids someday. It’s a really beautiful place. We make a lot of really fun memories… And Guy’s story in this movie is, you know, he had to do it. And so you play with things like survival, loneliness, the yearning for human connection, knowing that there’s impending doom at any moment when he knows they’re looking for him. He’s got a trillion-dollar invention that he’s holding tight, so he knows they’re coming for him. But he’s found peace in this. He’s found peace in the fact that he’s sort of been able to live completely disconnected from the world.”
