    Mr. Tyrese Gibson Tweeted/Twitted to say that he will be returning in Transformers 3 as his role of Robert Epps.

    "Here to STAY". I wonder what he means ? More sequels ?

    So, We will be hearing a lot of "Bring It"s in TF3...

    Not that he'd be playing any other role, but nice to hear from him.

    awesome! hopefully our 2 favorite NEST agents will have better roles this time around-and by better roles, i mean not just standing around-something important, but not necessarily something that take up the whole movie-like in TF1.

    I hope Epps gets more screen time in the third film. I like him, Lennox, and Simmons the most of all the human characters. I honestly could care less about the Witwickys or even Mikayla anymore.

    I like the character, glad he'll be back. I want to see more from him than just BIG TUFF GUY WHO CALLS IN SPLOSIONS though.

    No real surprise but nice to get confirmation. Since he's bak I'm assuming Lennox will be as well.

    I think we should ban Twitter feeds as sources of news similar to how IMDB is treated around here.

    Ya know.. just on principles and stuff. Or whatever lame excuse can be used to achieve it.

    I can see your point, bro. But Twitter is a great way to get news straight from the sources (Even before they reach any newspaper or anything). It's upclose and personnel.

    Twitter is fine with me. It's the best rss feed I ever had and it's his official twitter page coming from the man directly. The more direct source the better. Common sense should apply with Twitter as news tho'.

    And I was going to say, "....because he was going to play someone else in the next movie?" ... but Black Oracle beat me to it, as always.
