Notes

  • Bailey provided the temporary voice track for Optimus Prime in Bumblebee, with the studio intending to replace his voice with that of Prime's regular actor, Peter Cullen, once everything had been finalized. However, some of Bailey's temp tracks were accidentally left in the film's marketing material. The official trailer released in September 2018 features Cullen's voice, while an international trailer released at roughly the same time features Bailey, with a teaser released a few days earlier splitting the difference between the two. Bailey also auditioned for multiple characters, including Ironhide, meaning he was originally meant to speak (whether Bailey was originally going to get the role or not is unknown).<ref>Seibertron article about Bailey's experience</ref>
