Rainn Wilson Joins Transformers 2
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: DreamWorks, Paramount, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Science Fiction, Sequels, Casting, Upcoming Releases,
Although he claims he has not even seen a script, actor Rainn Wilson told MTV News he will have a small role in the Transformers sequel.
Other than the fact that he plays a professor (Shia LeBeouf will reportedly be entering college this time around), The Office star says he knows little else about the part. Wilson joked that he will play “a college professor that turns into a robot that then turns into a car.” At one point, it looked like Jonah Hill would also join the cast as Sam Witwicky’s roommate. Unfortunately, the Superbad actor turned the role down. (I’m guessing they’re going for a comedic theme?)
Transformers 2 - also starring Megan Fox and Josh Duhamel - is scheduled to begin filming this summer.

It really shouldn’t have been hard to predict that a Will Ferrell movie—or frankly a better movie—would take the top spot away from those fightin’ turtles. Audiences simply love watching him mock their beloved sports. It’s also worth nothing that TMNT sunk so low…it was even surpassed by the old fave, 300. Cowabunga?#$%!

1. Blades of Glory, Paramount, $33,014,202
2. Meet the Robinsons, Disney, $25,123,781
3. 300, Warner Bros., $11,434,437
4. TMNT, Warner Bros., $9,232,362
5. Wild Hogs, Disney, $8,662,893
6. Shooter, Paramount, $8,364,413
7. Premonition, Sony, $5,213,264
8. The Hills Have Eyes II, Fox Atomic
9. Reign Over Me, Sony, $3,835,022
