sp; .jpg" align="center">A report up at the IESB the other day mentioned a rumour going around that Robert Zemeckis has been turning down new directing offers because he is attached to the Transformers live action movie. Another industry insider claims that Warner Brothers has asked Robert Zemeckis and Dreamworks not to make any announcements regarding the "Transformers" until after the release of "The Polar Express" this November.
Then,
IGN FilmForce checked with its sources close to the project who advised them flat-out that there's "no truth" to the latest Zemeckis rumours. Meanwhile, producer Don Murphy revealed that "we're closing in on a writer and choosing to go with a younger guy who grew up with the mythology.like all of you fans. Should be announced in the coming weeks. DreamWorks and Spielberg very much still want the film for Summer '06 so it'll be hard - but GOOD".
Thanks to 'Robert' & 'Stax'.
