Notes

[edit]
  • An August 2010 press release claimed that Remar would be appearing in Transformers: Prime, but as the series ended with no sign of him, it seems that either the document's writer confused him with James Horan or they meant Dark of the Moon.
  • Prior to the launch of the War for Cybertron games, many mistook Remar as the voice of Megatron in the game, leading to him being miscredited as the character in some preview coverage. This was later set straight following the game's release, and credit for the role was rightly attributed to Fred Tatasciore.
