Transformers are rolling on Phoenix.

Production of the latest in the Michael Bay robot movie franchise will shut down part of the northern stretch of Loop 303 for several days.

Paramount Pictures is filming the "Transformers 5: The Last Knight," set to hit theaters next June.

The Arizona Department of Transportation said Loop 303 between Lake Pleasant Parkway and Interstate 17 will be closed until late Wednesday. The detour will be on State Route 74, two miles north of Loop 303.
