Tyrese Gibson will be back for more silliness as Sgt. Epps in Michael Bay’s Transformers 3. In a post on Twitter, he confirmed by saying that
“Yes I will for sure be in Transformers 3. Get Ready!! Epps is here to STAY!!”.
Wonderful news. What would we have done without Epps and his amazing character insights such as "That guy is a Ass...Hole!" and "DAAAAMN" and such. Anyway, this is the first of the regular cast members to confirm their role reprisals. Expect Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox to return as Sam Witwicky and Mikaela Banes of course.
All we know about the movie so far is that its being written by Ehren Kruger and Bay has described the screenplay as “feeling very different from the other two”, promising that the story will be much more about character, and will feature a lot less robots than Revenge of The Fallen. The film is being prepped for a shoot later this year, with an announced July 1st 2011 release date. Apparently, Paramount was pushing Bay to shoot the film in 3D(surprise surprise).
I'm willing to give a third movie a whirl I guess. As much as
ROTF wrecked my head with its constant retardation, I still enjoyed the Robot dust ups. If he is true to his word and focuses more on THOSE characters and not mentally challenged parents, humping dogs and crying moron room mates I'll pay to see Mr Bay's latest fiasco.
