When Shia LaBeouf’s character Sam Witwicky killed villainous robot Megatron in the first Transformers film, he was hoping he could go back to his normal life.

But given that there’s a sequel coming out in June entitled Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, of course the battle between good and evil was never that easy.

In the upcoming action film, Shia is reunited with his co-star Megan Fox, who plays Sam’s girlfriend Mikaela Barnes.

While happy to play the stunning sidekick again in the Transformers sequel, the 22-year-old actress admits she is growing bored of playing a sex symbol.

She told Empire magazine: ‘You can’t be [a sex symbol] 24 hours a day. I can’t be a professional celebrity or a professional sexpot. I can’t do that to myself.

‘I just want to work and make the right choices, and study and develop as an actress

‘I don’t want to be on the cover of every magazine that exists. I want to try not to do that. It’s my job to show people something different.’

With only two months to go before the film’s eagerly anticipated release, producers have released a list of the new robots which will go head to head with each other in the new movie.

Sam and Mikaela will join forces with the heroic Autobots to stop the Decepticons’ mission to rid the world of humans so they can live off Earth’s resources.

Among the new robots are mechanical jaguar Ravage, who spies on the Autobots and humans for the Decepticons, and The Doctor, a spider-like droid who tries to extract information from Sam.

Transformers screenwriter Alex Kurtzman told the USA Today newspaper: ‘In the spirit of “more than meets the eye,” Ravage isn’t just lethal because of his sharp teeth.
