Ever so funny Rainn Wilson, who intensely performs Schrute on NBC’s “The Office,” has spoken that he has been cast in DreamWorks’ “Transformers 2.” The sequel to last year’s megahit about a race of automotive automatons smashing it out on Earth reteams director Michael Bay with returning stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson and John Turturro.

Filming started in Los Angeles in recent weeks and is moving to Pennsylvania and then overseas.

Although not a huge role, Wilson’s casting — his first in a big-budget studio franchise – may draw a bigger audience interested in comedic relief. He will play a college professor to LaBeouf’s new undergrad.
