Nach dem kaum bemerkbaren kurzen Auftritt von R2-D2 im neuen Star Trek Film, kommt nun die Meldung, dass der kleine Astromech Droide auch im Transformers Sequel "Die Rache" mitwirkt.

VH1 berichtet dazu:

"There´s an R2-D2 flying around in there somewhere," revealed Scott Farrar, the film´s visual-effects supervisor, who also worked on the "Star Wars" episodes "Return of the Jedi" and "The Phantom Menace." "There´s a little bit of space junk thrown in there; see if you can find it. It´s a scene in the desert." Interestingly enough, George Lucas´ charismatic droid also had a blink-and-you´ll-miss-it cameo in "Star Trek," which shares the same writing team as "Transformers." Is it a coincidence? "Perhaps," screenwriter Alex Kurtzman grinned mischievously. "Perhaps not."
