Finally! Empire has debuted the first three photos from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and a gnarly cover shot featuring Optimus Prime looking badass as always. One of these photos has the "oh shit!" factor going for it and another features Megan Fox in action again. They shot footage in Egypt? Apparently this is going to be a lot more epic than we originally thought. This is the first look at any photos from Michael Bay's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, as he hasn't yet debuted a trailer or anything else. I will officially say that I am definitely excited - I can't wait to see Optimus and friends back on the big screen!
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is again directed by action film superstar Michael Bay of Bad Boys, The Rock, Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, The Island, and Transformers previously. The story and screenplay for the sequel was written by Transformers writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci as well as Ehren Kruger (The Ring, The Brothers Grimm, Blood and Chocolate). Paramount is unleashing Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in both IMAX and regular theaters on June 26th this summer. We'll be there!

It looks like itll be just as sick as the first, usually I dont like Bays stuff but something about the first one was just attracting...besides Megan Fox

i really didnt like Transformers. just to bland. Im on the fence with Bay, The Rock and Pearl Harbor were great, Bad Boys and The Island were so-so, and Armageddon just sucked. I'll end up seeing this tough.

I tend to go see Bay's movies for his visual tenacity but I hated Transformers. I just wish he could make something as good as The Rock again.

"Optimus and friends" that is hilarious, sounds like an 80's sitcom! These look awesome, I am super hyped about this movie.

Il iked the parts with Shia and Meg and Shia and his new car. But something about the story with the glasses and all the military stuff felt so cheap.

While i am looking forward to watching the film and i agree that these photos shown so far arent exactly exciting its all we have to go on now and the scope of the film at least looks like it will bigger. I have my doubts about the quality compared to the first movie but i'll wait and see. Ive been reading Empire for the last 15 years and the still don't disappoint me with new news regardless whether i agree with some of their reviews or not. Nice Job once again Empire 😀

Is Shia's left hand still wrapped in the middle shot from when we broke it in that car accident? Did they decide to add that he has a broken hand into the movie or something?

anyone think the first one was a tad bit overrated. loud, confusing, at times boring

Michael Bay was an action superstar!? Weird.

The one thing I didn't like about the 'first' movie was the robots. The "eye" can't keep track of 1000 tiny parts moving at one time. Don't get me started on the fight scenes. They could have been washing machines and no one would have known the difference. I'll watch because of Magan Fox and the story......

Megan Fox Looks Hot Even When She Is Running :P...!!! I Am Sure The Film Will Surpass The Previous Films Success...!!!!!

While I thank you for the update, Alex, I think you might be the only person in the entire world that didn't know they filmed in Egypt...

Waoh!, the battle in Egypt looks sick, but now I really wan't a trailer. I also heard there's suppose to be an epic battle sequence in the Artic. Atleast that's what they were aying at Comi-Con. I'll be there opening day though. Peace Out !

Does anyone else think the photoshop job on the top photo looks absolutely terrible? That pole sticking into the car does NOT look realistic at all. There's no damage or break to the car around where the pole is...what's going on?

@23 i perceived it as the car was still flying in the air, close to the guy, not stuck to the pole. I think its a freeze frame as the car flies overhead, like the other one in the background.
