* The producers expect that with a bigger budget and the special effects worked out, the Transformers will have a larger role and more screen time.{{fact}}
* According to the 2008 ShoWest edition of Dolby News, the film will be in 3-D.<ref>[http://www.comics2film.com/index.php?a=story&b=33214 'Tintin', 'Transformers 2' getting 3D release]</ref>
* Michael Bay has claimed that the studio is putting out deliberate misinformation, to obscure real leaks.<ref>[http://io9.com/382919/michael-bay-plays-internet-punkd Michael Bay Plays Internet Punk'd]</ref> (Like our jobs weren't hard enough.)
*A key character will return and "attempt to settle a score".<ref>[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=News/Item&newsid=59522272-D56F-E112-4C783175A8BBBAD6 Confirmation by Hasbro.]</ref>
* Roberto Orci confirmed that there is no '2' in the title of the sequel.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showpost.php?p=2173364&postcount=7 Roberto Orci at TFW2005.com]</ref>
* [[Aaron Hill|Aaron Hill]] is confirmed to play a supporting in the film.<ref>[http://www.aaronhill.biz/news.htm Aaron Hill confirms his role at his site]</ref>

* During San Diego Comic-Con 2008, in an interview on July 25th, [[Simon Furman|Simon Furman]] claimed that the film would feature a character called [[The Fallen|The Fallen]], which was a character they created for [[Dreamwave|Dreamwave]]'s ''[[The War Within: The Dark Ages|The War Within: The Dark Ages]]''<ref>[http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=17412 Simon Furman confirms The Fallen is a character in an interview with Comic Book Resources]</ref> Three days later, [[IDW Publishing|IDW Publishing]] writer [[Chris Mowry|Chris Mowry]] corroborated the claim in an interview with MTV Splash Page, calling "The Fallen" the main villian of ''Revenge'' ([[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]] was also confirmed in the same interview, but the reference to her was mysteriously removed shortly after publication). <ref>[http://splashpage.mtv.com/2008/07/28/exclusive-transformers-2-prequel-comic-gives-inside-scoop-on-2009-movie/ MTV Splash Page interviews Chris Mowry]</ref> Less than a week after this, however, Michael Bay reiterated that everything leaked thus far is part of their misinformation campaign and that only a handful of people involved with the production of ''Revenge'' have seen the script, contradicting IDW's interviews where their representatives confirm that they have the script. Additionally, Bay claimed the only truth about the film was Sam going to college.<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=44729&postcount=2 A post made by Michael Bay on his forum]</ref> Curiously, on August 5th 2008, after a fan posted on Michael Bay's forum pointing out the contradiction, all references to the Fallen were removed from the aforementioned interviews, as well as any references to IDW Publishing having the script.
* When questioned about whether the Transformers would have more flat surfaces and have less internal machinery exposed compared to the designs from the first movie, Roberto Orci answered with an emphatic "YES".<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/2317044-post773.html Roberto Orci at TFW2005.com]</ref>
* An official behind-the-scenes video from the first day of shooting (June 2, 2008) at the former steel plant in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania was posted on Wal-Mart's public website in early September of 2008. The video shows police cars with Chinese markings, [[Josh Duhamel|Josh Duhamel]] and [[Tyrese Gibson|Tyrese Gibson]] shooting an action sequence together with other actors and extras dressed as soldiers, and an Audi R8 being chased by three differently-colored motorcycles, all three of them equipped with drivers wearing the same outfit.<ref>[http://www.walmart.com/transformers Wal-Mart promo site with exclusive videos], access code is "AllSpark 62609".</ref>

* In an interview with BANG! Showbiz, Shia LeBouf stated that the injuries he suffered in his recent vehicular collision were written into the script and did not adversely affect the filming schedule.
* A December 29, 2008 ''USA Today'' article on ''Revenge'' detailed parts of the plot as well as confirming some Transformer cast members.<ref>[http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2008-12-28-transformers-side_N.htm USA Today December 29, 2008]</ref>

* ''Empire'' magazine's February 2009 issue features information on the role of the Egyptian Pyramids in the Movieverse's backstory. Michael Bay also confirmed The Fallen and denied Megatron would be resurrected (this later turned out to be untrue). Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics resembling helicopters will be revealed to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth before the pyramids were built.<ref>''Empire'' article entitled "20 to watch in 2009", written by Nick de Semelyn, dated February 2009, pages 68 and 69, issue 236</ref>

* On January 29, 2009, [[Activision|Activision]]'s website for the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' video game adaptation came online and revealed the robot modes of two new characters. However, this activation of the website appears to have been in error, as the site was taken offline hours later, with Activision requesting fan sites remove images of the characters.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-just-movie-31/activision-transformers-revenge-of-the-fallen-site-live---chevy-beat-and-trax-robot-modes-revealed-166703/ Trax and Beat revealed thread at TFW2005.com (Images Removed at Activision's request)]</ref>

* Also on January 29, 2009, Simon Furman commented on MTV Movie Blog about how the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] wouldn't fit very well into the movie's universe, and that he is glad they were dropped from the cast very early in development.<ref>[http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/01/29/no-dinobots-in-transformers-2-revenge-of-the-fallen-original-film-consultant-explains-why/ MTV Movie Blog interview with Simon Furman, January 29, 2009.]</ref>

* In the issue 140 February of ''Toyfare'' magazine, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura confirmed that the Fallen is one of the [[Thirteen original Transformers|Thirteen original Transformers]], likening the 13 to "apostles" and claiming the schism between Autobots and Decepticons to have been the Fallen's responsibility. He also stated that Devastator would be over 100 feet tall.<ref>Toyfare issue 140, February, 2009.

* During the Chicago Auto Show 2009, [[General Motors|General Motors]]/[[Chevrolet|Chevrolet]] issued a press releasing identifying several new Autobot characters who turned into various Chevy concept cars, including Sideswipe, Skids, Mudflap and Jolt.<ref>[http://media.gm.com/us/gm/en/news/events/autoshows/09chicago/brands/transformers.htm General Motors/Chevrolet Chicago Auto Show 2009 Press Release]</ref>
* Hasbro unveiled the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline at the New York Toy Fair 2009 on February 14.

* On February 16, the full teaser trailer that was released online, revealing the return of [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]].<ref>[http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809943432/video/12063123 Full teaser trailer at Yahoo! movies]</ref>
* Later that same day, official in package stock photos revealed the name of the Audi R8 Decepticon seen in the trailers to be Sideways. <ref>[http://tformers.com/transformers-official-shots-of-revenge-of-the-fallen-sideways-audi-r8-gets-a-name/11000/news.html Audi R8's packaging revealed through official packaging shots at Tformers]</ref>

* After a short and poorly excuted "misinformation campaign" on the part of Michael Bay, Paramount and their licensees where they claimed that Megatron was not in the movie despite all ''officially released'' evidence to the contrary (including Megatron's brief appearance in the February 1 Superbowl tv spot and the February teaser trailer), Roberto Orci confirmed that Megatron does indeed return.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/180451-welcome-mr-roberto-orci-you-may-ask-him-questions-211.html#post3333713 Roberto Orci confirms Megatron's return on TFW2005.com - February 22, 2009]</ref>

* On March 4, 2009, [[Hugo Weaving|Hugo Weaving]] revealed he would be returning as Megatron in ''Revenge of the Fallen'' and in fact had already recorded his dialogue. When asked of how Megatron would be resurrected, Weaving kept mum, but pointed out that Optimus Prime took a surviving sliver of the [[All Spark (Movie)|All Spark]] out of Megatron's chest in the previous movie.<ref>[http://blogs.news.com.au/adelaidenow/turkeyshoot/index.php/adelaidenow/comments/weaving_confirms_megatrons_return_in_transformers_revenge_of_the_fallen AdelaideNow blog report on Weaving's return to ''Transformers'' - March 4, 2009.]</ref>
* On March 6, due to the reports of Weaving's return, Michael Bay finally admitted Megatron was back, but claimed that Megatron would only appear briefly in a flashback to the past, despite the fact Megatron can be seen pinning Sam Witwicky to the ground in ''Revenge's'' tv spot and teaser trailer. One can assume that the director was trying to salvage some form of audience surprise in seeing Megatron return in the movie. In other news of a presumably legitimate kind, Bay said that the movie would go into the distant past and explain the history of the [[Prime|Primes]].<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=66825&postcount=4 Michael Bay on his forum - March 6, 2009]</ref>

* Shortly after an [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/interviews-27/tfw2005-interviews-frank-welker-part-1-of-2-167015/ interview] with voice actor [[Frank Welker|Frank Welker]] was posted on fan site TFW2005.com, in which he revealed he had not been contacted by the film crew for a part, Bay made a post on his forum that he was now interested in casting Welker as [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]]<ref>[http://www.michaelbay.com/newsblog/files/soundwave-w.html Micheal Bay.com news blog - March 10, 2009]</ref>

==''Transformers'' sequel and the 2007-2008 Writers Strike==
In late 2007, during preproduction for then-untitled ''Transformers'' sequel, the [[Writers Guild of America went on strike|Writers Guild of America went on strike]]. At the time, [[Roberto Orci|Roberto Orci]] stated that the strike could likely delay ''Transformers 2's'' release. However, Michael Bay refuted this, claiming the movie was still on schedule.<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6200#post6200 Robert Orci discusses the strike & TF2]</ref> The reason behind Bay's confidence was discovered by Orci shortly after the strike ended. The director had apparently taken the outline the writers had handed in the night before the strike, and begun movie prep based on it.<ref>[http://www.donmurphy.net/board/showthread.php?t=24357&page=4 Don Murphy message board - Orci on the aftermath of the strike]</ref>

==Related fiction==
===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
While the Decepticons were disgusted with the pro-Autobot propaganda of Bay's first documentary {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|#13's Star Screams}}, they're quite optimistic about the second film. [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] has taken a strong interest in it, going to the trouble of personally convincing [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] to be in the film {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 15|15's Star Screams}}.

The Decepticons promise this new documentary will show a glorious Decepticon victory {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|#10's Star Screams}} - whether it's in the script or not. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 18|#18's Star Screams}}

Shockingly, even ''they'' are under a non-disclosure agreement regarding the script; Starscream fearfully refers to a greater power keeping him quiet. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|#22's Star Screams}}
