From a full 2-page spread ad in Variety today:
"Dreamworks Pictures and Paramount Pictures are proud to announce the aquisition of the worldwide film rights to TRANSFORMERS."
Dreamworks will oversee the production of the film, a "thrilling action adventure" for release in 2006. Hasbro will serve as consultants on the film (supposedly so will Takara- the original Japanese company that developed the toy Transformers were based upon), Dreamworks will produce and distrubute domestically and Paramound have world distro.
The film will be live action, Spielberg will Exec Produce with Lorenzo diBonaventura, Don Murphy and Tom DeSanto producing.
The Variety ad shows 3-d drawings of Optimus over the autobot logo and Megatron over the decepticon logo (drawing, i assume from the previous comic version, as each is signed Pat Lee)
