You could always get Mark Hammill, he's in everything now-adays. And pretty much is a voice actor nowadays. And by "everything" I mean behind the scenes. You see his name in the Credits a lot.

Yeah, it says this also...

He has just completed "SpecialOps: Delta" playing Col. Anderson Savage and was hired as the onset voice (uncredited) of the "Transformers" for the forthcoming Michael Bay movie of the same name.

I vote for Gary Chalk for Optimus and David Kaye as Megatron.

Ah, my loving memories of Beast Wars...

to my knowledge, Peter Cullen can still the Prime voice, though he sounds slightly older, but it's still great.

My God, just get him for God's sakes. What's the friggin' harm?

I know most people here have a general hatred for young annoying actors and have lumped Shia LaBeouf into that category. I recently watched The Greatest Game Ever Played starring LeBeouf and his acting in that movie, while nothing truly dynamic like Maguire in Seabiscuit, was more than adequate enough to put him a step above a few of his peers. Its a decent movie that takes him out of the comedy realm into a more serious tone.

id rather shia than most kids who cant act for ****..........but thats not to say shia can act.I just hate it when he acts ghetto, i havent yet washed his performance in i,robot off my mind


but what about tyrese?

 

[GL1]

Shia can out act anyone his age, and quite a few in the next decade bracket, many of which make much more money than he does... and Voight personally mentors him, so he's guaranteed to be better than last time you saw him...

As for voices, I say keep Peter Cullen, cuz he can still pull it off and Optimus Prime is iconic in many ways... I would even say keep Chris Latta as Starscream... the rest of the voice actors have been out of work for a while, likely they had better things to do... I'm not sure about Frank Welker, while clearly the most experienced, I'm not sure his voice does it for a darker more adult Megatron... but hey, what the heck...

All the other vehicles should be replaceable, imho... of course, Tim Curry makes for a good replacement for Megs, since Welker's a bit older now... James Earl Jones would make an awesome Ironhide, whlie I'd love to hear Pearlman as Prowl. Dimaggio would be the ULTIMATE Starscream, and, well... yeah... I'd like to see some good things in the future...

Sadly Chris Latta has passed away...

 

[Spark]

Yeah, I'd definitely put him in the "out of work for a while" bracket. Although there's plenty besides Cullen who're carrying on their VA careers as normal.

 

[Supreme Power]

Just watch legend even though its crap the best part is his voice just close your eyes and listin to his voice. Theres a story going around that Timm wanted him as joker for B:tas but Fox replaced him with Mark because Curry sounded to scary.

Did you call Legend crap? Why would you dis someone's childhood like that.

Frank Welker can easily do about 3 or 4 different characters in the movie. They already have Cullen, and Frank has been in dozens of movies and cartoons for over 40 years now, so I see no reason why he can't be Megatron and a couple of others for the movie. The general audiences won't recognize their voices, so it's probably good that they're using B and C list actors in the movie as the human supporting characters and use professional unknown and known voice actors to bring out those other voices.
