"News" from the writers

Roberto Orci and Alex Hurtzman has a brief interview with iesb.net about their latest writing assignment, Transformers The Move. The site has a transcript and video of this interview. The two writers most recently cobbled together the script for the latest Zorro sequal and Mission Impossible 3 so that will help determine what level of skill the franchise has been handed over to. The interview has "news" only in the sense that new characters are being introduced but whether those are human or Transformer kind was not clear. Other then that the writers claim to be fans of the franchise and no final decisions have been made on anything from who is in it, to casting, to what shows up or doesn't show up. In other words, everything is still up in the air.
