by Todd Gilchrist



October 9, 2007 - Steven Spielberg, director of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, told IGN that Transformers 2 is rapidly being prepared for production. Spielberg, who executive-produced the first film, said that the story will be going out within the next 30 days.

The original Transformers followed the adventures of a young boy named Sam Witwicky (Shia LeBeouf) who finds himself caught up in an intergalactic struggle between two groups of shape-changing robots. Spielberg said that the producers want to get the film going before the possible Writer's Guild strike occurs.

Speaking from the set of Indy IV, Spielberg also said that Le Beouf will be returning to the role of Sam for "multiple" Transformers films.

Fast-tracking it... Not sure what I feel about that.
