John Turturro is back once again, reprising his role as former government agent Seymour Simmons after sitting out the previous film.

Weirdly, though, he spends the entire movie sidelined in Cuba, which has become a Transformer haven after the U.S. government outlawed them.

Turturro's few brief scenes in the film all involve him phoning someone back in America, and though they're ultimately pretty pointless beyond mild fan service, at least it looks like Turturro got a nice holiday out of it.

Plus, the last the audience sees of Turturro, he's heading off to the beach to play ball with a Transformer, and how can you not like that?
