Transformers 2 and Wolverine limited by strikes November 12th, 2007

Vari­ety are run­ning an update on exactly how the cur­rent Writer’s Guild strikes shall affect the big bud­get Hol­ly­wood pro­duc­tions, specif­i­cally Michael Bay’s Trans­form­ers 2 and the Wolver­ine X-men spin off:

DreamWorks/Par’s “Trans­form­ers 2″ is far enough along to pro­ceed with pre-production, loca­tion scout­ing and advance VFX work, but will face seri­ous issues if the strike con­tin­ues for sev­eral months. Michael Bay’s megabud­get sequel isn’t set to start film­ing until June.

Fox is mov­ing full speed ahead with its “X-Men” spin­off “Wolver­ine,” even though many roles are still uncast. Unlike “X-Men,” “Wolver­ine” rests solidly on Hugh Jackman’s shoulders.

If you don’t under­stand the cause of these strikes, I rec­om­mend watch­ing this video which explains every­thing you need to know:

Trans­form­ers 2 — Movie Chron­i­cles » Trans­form­ers sequel unslotted? January 5th, 2008

[…] Hol­ly­wood Reporter have an uncon­firmed arti­cle stat­ing that the release date for Trans­form­ers 2 has slipped from June 26th 2009 to a now “unslot­ted date“, pos­si­bly being pushed back to a 2010 release. This is all spec­u­la­tion at this point, as I can­not find a reli­able source to con­firm this. Though any delays can in all like­li­hoods be linked to the WGA strikes. […]
