MTV Movie Blogs has recently updated with a Rachel Taylor interview.

Rachel Taylor's role in the first movie as computer hacker Maggie Madsen, as you know, was not written into the script for the second movie. She talks about her Transformers experience, how she grew from it, and also about the new movie she is working on called, "Bottle Shock".


:
...And while that(Transformers) was a “great experience,” Taylor said, it’s “not quite what I want to do” and it would defeat the purpose of becoming a better actor “if I was just going to become a ‘Transformers’ girl” (Is that like being a Bond girl, with less prestige?).

“There’s a line in ‘Bottle Shock,’” her current film in theaters, “how ‘from hardship comes enlightment,’” Taylor said...


:
To transform herself, she said, she needs to do roles that aren’t quite as easy for her as “Transformers” was (in which she retained her native accent). “‘Transformers’ was important and defining for me because it taught me about what kinds of movies I want to make and the kind of actor I want to be, and I have a long way to go before I become that actor,” she said.


You can read the entire interview here, at MovieBlogs.MTV.com.

Good luck on your future endeavors Ms. Taylor! Transformers fans will always appreciate the part you played in the movie.
