Transformers co-writer Roberto Orci spilled a few secrets on what to expect in the soon-to-shoot sequel. The film will build on the first, while delving deeper into the Transformers story.

"We want to follow some of our lead characters, which we thought were so successful," Orci told SciFi in an interview while promoting the upcoming Fox SF TV series Fringe. "Shia LaBeouf's character, [Sam Witwicky, was] amazing. Where is he two years later? His girlfriend, [Mikaela, played by Megan Fox,] where is she two years later? But for fans--I guess I'll address this more to fans-- ... I think if you didn't know Transformers at all and you liked the first movie, you'll like the second one." The sequel, he says, "will deliver on a true Transformers story. You know, the first one, we had a limited budget for what it was. Every second of Transformer time is $1 million or whatever the heck it is. So this time, because we were able to prove, thank God, through the whole thing that it's a viable live-action movie, we have a little more freedom this time to actually learn about the Transformers, to see them, hear them. ... It's a better balance between the humans and the Transformers."

As if all of this wasn't enough, Orci drops a couple of names likely to figure in the movie. "I'll tell you, man," he said. "We had to get Soundwave in there." What about Ravage? "You know, we had Ravage in an early draft of the first movie, and Soundwave, and we couldn't do it right. I think this time, hopefully, we'll have the ability to do it."
