The original voice of Transformers' Optimus Prime, Peter Cullen, will also voice the character in Paramount's anticipated big screen adaptation. Cullen made the announcement over the phone during the studio's presentation at the San Diego Comic-Con today.

Transformers, directed by Michael Bay, hits theaters on July 4, 2007.

i'm hoping they get some of the other voice actors from the cartoon as well.

Well Peter Cullen does more than Optimus, so maybe they'd get him to do those roles as well.

YEAH!!

I'd heard rumors that only Megatron actually talked, so this is a good sign.

Let's hope the movie turns out well.

I don't know, if only megatron talks, then doesn't that assure that the movie will be more of a 'people' standpoint picture. I don't know if I like that,
