A report has just come in from The Cairns Post, an Australian news outlet, that Isabel Lucas was picked by Steven Spielberg (Producer of Transformers and Transformers 2) for the upcoming sequel to the blockbuster hit.
The report states that Spielberg initially saw the Australian actress working on the war epic "The Pacific" and was so impressed by her role that he pushed for her to get a role in Transformers 2.
A spokesperson for Lucas's agent Meissner Management stated that she will most likely be cast in a 'strong supporting role'.

Will she be a new character or the same one?

I don't know who Lucas will play, or whether Taylor's character will return. But it's an interesting thought.

It would, She does look sorta similar, she just needs to get the British accent down to fool people.
And man, she is pretty good-looking.

"I'd like to give her a strong supporting role!"

As for ehr role, who knows? She could be the new maggie, or she could be part of a love triangle for Sam. Afterall, getting into awkward situations is something he's good at.

I thought the exact same thing.

I feel sorry for you Yanks, but most of us Brits have already had the pleasure of this young lady on our screens for many years now, courtesy of the Aussie programme "Home and Away"...

You take Stanley Kubrick from us, and now you gloat about this?! That's it! I'm starting the American Revolution back up! Meet me in Boston, it won't be right if I don't throw all your tea into the ocean.

Rachael Taylor and Isabel Lucas are both Australian. Rachael's accent in Transformers was Australian, not British.

I honestly can't imagine them introducing another love interest for Sam and making a complicated human storyline. This isn't Spider-Man 3!
The meatbags are introduced, now move away for the big bots.

She used to play Natascha in Home And Away.
The relief I felt when I saw it was Isabel Lucas not George Lucas was huge.
The worst thoughts went through my head when I thought it was George Lucas. The man is a idiot.
I hope she gets a good part.
If it is the truth that is.

I don't think she's that hot really. Not bad though.

Ok Rushie, this was priceless!

More bots with more dialog and screen time would definitely be better.

Of course! Unless they are throwing in a beach scene (which I have often advocated) with this hottie and Meghan....

Crazy thing about Fox is that she is loaded with distintive tattoos in real life but you'd never know from the first movie.
