Dwight Schrute fights
Office politics every week, but can he fight evil? Dwight's real-life alter ego,
Rainn Wilson, will get his chance to find out in
Transformers 2, says the
Reporter.
In the sequel to the robotic action flick, Wilson will play a college professor to
Shia LaBeouf. Along with the newly minted Indy star, the follow-up film will also see returning stars Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson and John Turturro.
The big-budget movie role will be the first of its kind for Wilson, who had a small role in
Juno and will be starring in this summer's
Rocker. If Wilson can manage the dynamics of Dunder Mifflin, fighting robots should be no problem. Can you see Wilson making a transition to big-screen fare?
