Transformer 4 is already seeing some action. The movie set in Austin, Texas caught on fire while filming.

The attic in the house that the film is being shot in caught on fire around 7:30 pm on Tuesday, June 11. Firefighters were able to put out the flames before the fire spread and caused any more damages to the rest of the house. However, there was a civilian who was transported to a nearby hospital for injuries, reports E! News.

Mark Wahlberg and director Michael Bay reportedly sprang into action, helping grab equipment and costumes as they ran out of the burning house. There is no official word as to how the fire started, but E! News reports that it was due to a wiring catching on fire and is being ruled as accidental. KVUE News, however, claims that a crew member told them that the fire occurred during a “controlled explosion”. The latter is not so hard to believe considering that the film is action packed film.

Transformers 4 has a lot left to shoot as it prepares for its release this time next year. The film will go sans-Shia Labeouf, as Mark Wahlberg takes on the lead role. Bay stated that the film is moving towards a more mature direction and will encounter a lot of changes, including makeovers for some of the Transformers.

No one was very surprised to hear that Michael Bay would be making yet another installment of the Transformers movie franchise but what did come as a shock was that Hollywood mega star Mark Wahlberg had signed on to star in the film. It was no secret that Wahlberg and Bay hit it off on the set of “Pain and Gain,” and that they were both eager to work together again but it was hard to predict that Wahlberg would be interested in starring in the alien robot franchise reboot.
Wahlberg sat down with MTV news recently while promoting his upcoming film “Broken City” to discuss his decision. “Because Michael and I had such a great experience on ‘Pain and Gain’ and for me, working in the environment with him, I had the opportunity to be the best actor I could,” Wahlberg said. “I wanted to work with him again right away and started talking to him and he just kind of said, ‘Hey I’m doing this movie. It’s completely different. I want to change it. This is how I’m going to do it,’ and I said, ‘I would love to do it.’”
