The Transformers Aligned Continuity (comprising the animated series Transformers: Prime and Transformers: Robots in Disguise) features a reference to M.A.S.K. as a division of the United States military that developed a special vehicle.[6][7]

Possible continuities

Transformers and G.I. Joe film series

On March 28, 2014, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura announced that he is open to doing a crossover film between the Transformers and G.I. Joe film series (Paramount Pictures and MGM).[8] On June 23, di Bonaventura stated that a crossover was not likely to happen,[9] but on July 9, he reassured there would still be a possibility.[10] On October 23, 2015, Chu confirmed his intentions to make a crossover film between Jem (Universal Pictures) with Transformers and G.I. Joe.[11] On October 29, he hinted about Transformers possibly doing crossovers with other Hasbro products.[12] On January 18, 2017, D. J. Caruso has stated that when he was in talks to be GI Joe 3's director, the discussion included a Transformers and G.I. Joe meeting. However, Paramount did not think the time was right to do so because they did not want to infringe on Michael Bay's running of the Transformers films.[13]

Five-property cinematic universe (cancelled)

On December 15, 2015, Hasbro agreed with Paramount to a deal creating a five-property movie universe by financing unit Allspark Pictures (now being Entertainment One) and distributed by Paramount Pictures. This new universe would consist of the current G.I. Joe film series alongside future film adaptations based on M.A.S.K., Micronauts, Rom and Visionaries.[14] On April 21, 2016, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that Lindsey Beer, Michael Chabon, Cheo Hodari Coker, Joe Robert Cole, John Francis Daley, Jonathan Goldstein, Jeff Pinkner, Nicole Perlman, Nicole Riegel, Geneva Robertson and Brian K. Vaughan have joined the writers' room for the cinematic universe.[15]

In March 2021, Lorenzo di Bonaventura stated the writers' room is disbanded, leaving the project in development hell.[16]

Power Rangers film/TV universe

On December 13, 2019, it was reported that Jonathan Entwistle is in early negotiations to direct a new Power Rangers film reboot, with Patrick Burleigh being set to write the script. The plot will reportedly involve time travel and will be set in the 1990s.[17] On October 20, 2020, It was announced that Entwistle will work on the reboot with Hasbro and Entertainment One as he will be overseeing, and directing, both film and television adaptations and the very next week, Deadline reported that Bryan Edward Hill will write the script for the reboot.[18][19][20][21]
