PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) -- Toymaker Hasbro's popular Transformers action figures will be seen on the silver screen.

DreamWorks film company, co-founded by Steven Spielberg, will oversee the live-action movie, scheduled for release in summer 2006.

"Steven and everyone at DreamWorks are very excited about the prospect of expanding the world of Transformers into the live-action feature film arena. The possibilities for a thrilling action adventure are virtually endless, and a film holds the definite promise of expanding an already worldwide fan base to new audiences," Adam Goodman, DreamWorks head of production, said in a statement Friday.

Pawtucket-based Hasbro created Transformers in 1984.

Hasbro will act as consultants to the film. DreamWorks will distribute the movie in the United States and Paramount Pictures will market it internationally.

I cried when Optimus Prime died in the original animated movie

Invictus

Me too, this could be very good but its gonna be live action with as minimal CGI as possible, I heard on Empire that Speilberg is thinking of using robots ala Jurassic Park
