Peter Cullen

Scarier than Venger and the Predator combined.

Peter Cullen (1956–) is an American voice actor (though originally from Canada) who has earned fame, respect and admiration as the voice of the original Optimus Prime. In 2006 it was announced that he would be voicing Optimus Prime in the 2007 movie as well. And there was much rejoicing (One person started complaining. He was torn limb from limb, and eaten).
