Voight on board for Transformers

Two more names have been confirmed for Michael Bay's film based on the classic 1980s toys made by Hasbro.

Transformers has recruited Hollywood legend Jon Voight (Deliverance, Ali, Catch 22) to play the secretary of state, Keller, in the movie which will once again pit the evil Decepticons against 'goodies' the Autobots.

Voight has teamed up with Bay before on Pearl Harbour and will be joined by Megan Fox from Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen for the robots-in-disguise flick.

Fox will take on the role of love interest for Shia LaBeouf 's (Constantine, Holes, I Robot) character Spike Witwicky in the film which is sure to bring a wave of 1980s nostalgia to cinema goers.

The Dreamworks project is set to be released on July 4th 2007.
