Current information includes:

For dry, red eyes, the difference is clear: Clear Eyes.

Producer Tom DeSanto has envisioned a storyline introducing the Constructicons.<a href="#cite_note-2" title="">[3]</a>
Writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman are recruiting Ehren Kruger to help them write the screenplay. Michael Bay and producers Don Murphy, Tom DeSanto, and Lorenzo di Bonaventura are also returning.<a href="#cite_note-shhwritersconfirmed-3" title="">[4]</a>
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.[citation needed]
According to the 2008 ShoWest edition of Dolby News, the film will be in 3-D.<a href="#cite_note-4" title="">[5]</a>
Michael Bay has claimed that the studio is putting out deliberate misinformation, to obscure real leaks.<a href="#cite_note-5" title="">[6]</a> (Like our jobs weren't hard enough.)
A key character will return and "attempt to settle a score".<a href="#cite_note-6" title="">[7]</a>
Roberto Orci confirmed that there is no '2' in the title of the sequel.<a href="#cite_note-7" title="">[8]</a>
Aaron Hill is confirmed to play a supporting in the film.<a href="#cite_note-8" title="">[9]</a>
During San Diego Comic-Con 2008, in an interview on July 25th, Simon Furman claimed that the film would feature a character called The Fallen, which was a character they created for Dreamwave's The War Within: The Dark Ages<a href="#cite_note-9" title="">[10]</a> Three days later, IDW Publishing writer Chris Mowry corroborated the claim in an interview with MTV Splash Page, calling "The Fallen" the main villian of Revenge (Arcee was also confirmed in the same interview, but the reference to her was mysteriously removed shortly after publication). <a href="#cite_note-mtvmowry-10" title="">[11]</a> 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.<a href="#cite_note-11" title="">[12]</a> 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".<a href="#cite_note-12" title="">[13]</a>
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 and 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.<a href="#cite_note-walmart-13" title="">[14]</a>
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.<a href="#cite_note-USAToday2008-14" title="">[15]</a>
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.<a href="#cite_note-empire-15" title="">[16]</a>
On January 14, 2009, Roberto Orci confirmed in an interview with IGN at the Television Critics Association press tour that Ravage would be a character in the film, and added that there is a Pretender.<a href="#cite_note-IGNJan2009-16" title="">[17]</a>
On January 29, 2009, 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.<a href="#cite_note-17" title="">[18]</a>
Also on January 29, 2009, Simon Furman commented on MTV Movie Blog about how the 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.<a href="#cite_note-18" title="">[19]</a>
On February 1, 2009, the first official trailer for the movie was aired during Super Bowl XLIII.<a href="#cite_note-Superbowltvspot-19" title="">[20]</a>
Michael Bay stated in interview with The Collider the he obtained permission to film in Egypt by contacting <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zahi_Hawass" class="extiw" title="wikipedia:Zahi_Hawass">Zahi Hawass</a>, secretary general of Egypt's council of antiquities, who turned out to be a fan of the 2007 Transformers movie.<a href="#cite_note-20" title="">[21]</a>
In the issue 140 February of Toyfare magazine, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura confirmed that the Fallen is one of the 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.<a href="#cite_note-21" title="">[22]</a>
During the Chicago Auto Show 2009, General Motors/Chevrolet issued a press releasing identifying several new Autobot characters who turned into various Chevy concept cars, including Sideswipe, Skids, Mudflap and Jolt.<a href="#cite_note-ChicagoAutoShow2009-22" title="">[23]</a>
Hasbro unveiled the Revenge of the Fallen toyline at the New York Toy Fair 2009 on February 14. Among the (officially) revealed were the Devastator and Constructicon toys, as well as the robot forms of Sideswipe, Mudflap and Skids.<a href="#cite_note-Toyfair2009-23" title="">[24]</a>
On February 16, the full teaser trailer that was released online, revealing the return of Scorponok.<a href="#cite_note-teasertrailer-24" title="">[25]</a>
Later that same day, official in package stock photos revealed the name of the Audi R8 Decepticon seen in the trailers to be Sideways. <a href="#cite_note-Sideways-25" title="">[26]</a>
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.<a href="#cite_note-megsreturns-26" title="">[27]</a>
On March 4, 2009, 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 out of Megatron's chest in the previous movie.<a href="#cite_note-Hugo_Weaving-27" title="">[28]</a>
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 Primes.<a href="#cite_note-28" title="">[29]</a>
Shortly after an interview with voice actor 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<a href="#cite_note-29" title="">[30]</a>

At the time, 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.<a href="#cite_note-41" title="">[42]</a> 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.<a href="#cite_note-42" title="">[43]</a>

<a name="Related_fiction"></a><h2> Related fiction</h2> <a name="Titan_Magazines_Transformers_movie_comics"></a><h3> Titan Magazines Transformers movie comics</h3> While the Decepticons were disgusted with the pro-Autobot propaganda of Bay's first documentary #13's Star Screams, they're quite optimistic about the second film. Starscream has taken a strong interest in it, going to the trouble of personally convincing Soundwave to be in the film 15's Star Screams.

The Decepticons promise this new documentary will show a glorious Decepticon victory #10's Star Screams - whether it's in the script or not. #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. #22's Star Screams
