Transformers 3 Will Have More Ramon Rodriguez

So I liked Transformers 2. I am in the minority but then again I normally am. I have now been hearing what we might see in the third film and what that will have in store.

The Los Angeles Times recently spoke with actor Ramon Rodriguez, who plays Leo Spitz, and director Michael Bay, who revealed that we should see more of his character in the next film.

Director Michael Bay has a third “Transformers” film in mind, and if it plays out as he expects, the next installment would have a more substantial role for Ramon Rodriguez. The filmmaker, speaking at his office a few weeks before “Revenge of the Fallen” was released, seemed to have some pride of discovery when talking about Rodriguez.

“I’ve worked with big stars, people like Will Smith, Sean Connery and Bruce Willis, but casting is a weird thing, it takes you places you don’t expect,” Bay said. “We went looking for a sidekick in this movie, Shia’s sidekick, and we find this new kid who really pops on screen. I think he’s going to have a real bright career. It’s great to work with big stars, but it’s always fun to discover people.”

I thought Rodriguez was a good fit but the dialogue definitely seemed to be written for Jonah Hill and his irrevrence didn’t come across that well on screen. That being said he is a good straight man for Shia to play off of and his role in the second film was cool. I can totally see him and Agent Simmons working together in the next film and playing off one another sort of a Men in Black type team that specializes in helping cover up the Transformers on Earth.
