"Transformers" veteran screenwriting duo Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman and newcomer Ehren Kruger (The Brothers Grimm) are in talks to pen "Transformers 2," reports Entertainment News International. DreamWorks SKG and Paramount Pictures are reportedly eyeing at striking a $5 to $7 million deal with the screenwriters.

The three A-list writers for one movie are unprecedented, but it is suggested that is due to the fast-tracking of the movie before the Hollywood strike and Mr. Orci and Mr. Kurtzman's working on J.J. Abrams' upcoming "Star Trek" film.

Director Michael Bay and Hasbro president Brian Goldner are reported to be happy about Mr. Kruger's knowledge of the Transformers mythology.

Aside from Mr. Bay, producers from "Transformers" Tom DeSanto, Lorenzo DiBonaventura, and Don Murphy are also set to return. Steven Spielberg will fill the executive producer chair even though he was called "completely immaterial" by Paramount Pictures.
