Then to jump forward 20 years and to be communicating with a big-time director and on-screen actors. All of the sudden, you've gone from working with a cast in the same room and sharing a state of the art animation at the time, which was cells. Well, it was no longer the generation one cartoon. What I'm trying to say is, forgive me, you're putting up with a lot of words here. But I think it's exciting to know that you can reach out to millions and millions of people. I have my phone and I have a computer, but you guys are way ahead of me on that stuff. I'm electronically challenged in many ways and I'm not up to date on many of the new forms of communication. We're in this new age of entertainment through internet and the many ways of communicating. My brain is just settling down from HBO and Netflix and the new wave of people communicating. So welcoming aboard Machinima and the whole new electronic age for entertainment, it's going so quickly. It's overwhelmingly a new age and I've been at this since '84. Peter Cullen: As always, stepping off on a new platform, it's exciting. Are you comfortable with it at this point? How are you feeling about it? You've done this a ton of times over the years. So, without further adieu, here's my chat with Peter Cullen. We discuss how he got into voice acting, how the role of Optimus Prime has evolved over the years and much more. I had the opportunity to chat with Peter Cullen in honor of Transformers: Titans Return, which is currently available to watch on go90. They are joined by returning talent from Transformers: Combiner Wars, including Abby Trott (Windblade), Jason Marnocha (Megatron), Frank Todaro (Starscream), Lana McKissack (Mistress of Flame), and DashieGames (Menasor), as well as a new set of influencers like MatPat (Computron), Rob Dyke (Devastator) and Tay Zonday (Chorus of the Primes). Peter Cullen will be joined by a host of fan favorites including Judd Nelson, who is reprising his roles of Rodimus Prime and Hot Rod from the 1986 animated Transformers movie, Michael Dorn as Fortress Maximus, Wil Wheaton as Perceptor, Nolan North as Metroplex and Jason David Frank as Emissary. Though, just watching the trailer for Transformers: Titans Return, it's clear that Optimus Prime is still the same character, just in a different medium. Starting out as a humble cartoon series, eventually making its way to some of the biggest live-action movies on the planet and now, embracing the new age, as a web series produced by Machinima and Hasbro for go90. At 76-years-old, Peter Cullen has seen the Transformers franchise go through just about every iteration imaginable. ![]()
