Transformers: Bumblebee features the following plot: "On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee the Autobot seeks refuge in a junkyard in a small California beach town. Charlie, on the brink of turning 18 years old and trying to find her place in the world, soon discovers the battle-scarred and broken Bumblebee. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns that this is no ordinary yellow Volkswagen.
Cena plays Burns, a government agent, in the film. The film will be released nationally on 12/21, the sixth in the Transformers film franchise.
