Airmen from RAF Lakenheath were invited to take part in the film, named Transformers: The Last Knight, along with two of the USAF base's HH-60G Pave Hawks.
The helicopters were used to shoot scenes in Wiltshire around a replica of Stonehenge, constructed by the film studio.
The supporting airmen from 56th Rescue Squadron got the chance to meet veteran actor Sir Anthony Hopkins, who is starring in the Michael Bay film.
The dramatic scenes, featuring Sir Anthony and Mark Wahlberg, saw the model of the 5,000 year old monument blown to smithereens.
