Transformers: The Last Knight is only the second major Hollywood production to film in Cuba since President Barack Obama lifted sanctions. We’ve already seen a collection of images and videos from the Cuban sets of Fast & Furious 8, which was the first movie to shoot in the country.

While this Transformers image isn’t much -- it’s just a shot of a lime green vintage car -- it’s going to mean a whole lot more if this car is actually a Transformer in disguise. We’ve only seen Transformers disguised as cars by companies that paid the most in product placement till now, so to get one that isn’t the latest Chevrolet is going to be a surprise.

Since opening its shores, Cuba also hosted a Chanel fashion show on its streets.

International celebrities and Cuban bigwigs graced the red carpet as Karl Lagerfeld showed his latest collection. Here, Brazilian top model Gisele Bundchen poses before the fashion show. Other high-profile attendees included Hollywood stars Vin Diesel, Tilda Swinton and Geraldine Chaplin. (Reuters)
