For the last few days rumors have been flying, about the envolvement of director Michael Bay and him directing the upcoming Transformers movie. Don Murphy himself has given the updates on what is going on at the moment.

Murphy explains the following on his board and had this to say:

"Okay
Now
There is NO deal
so anything could happen
But Variety will report in the morning
that Michael Bay is in negotiations to direct the film
He feels like a good choice for what we are trying to make
will let you know more when I can"

Since Variety is a subscription only site, Don Murphy was kind enough to post the article on his board.

To sum this all up, Michael Bay is in talks to direct the movie, but at the moment, the deal has not yet been cemented. As Murphy mentioned on his board;

"Bay got scared off Superman when Fat Knowles leaked it. Just up and left. If he did that here, then we are back to looking for a director. And you might not have gotten a good one.

So I know Michael is happy this is out in the world- great- but we need to be chilled and get him on board".
