As the voice of Megatron, a prominent villain in both the ‘Transformers’ films, you’d think Hugo Weaving would be quite well-versed in the story and involved with the production of Michael Bay’s films, right? Not exactly.
“Oh no,” Weaving tells The Age with laughs. “They’re not making ‘Transformers 3,’ are they?”
“Michael Bay talks to me on the phone. I’ve never met him. We were doing the voice for the second one and I still hadn’t seen the first one. I still didn’t really know who the characters were and I didn’t know what anything was. It’s a voice job, for sure, and people assume I’ve spent my life working on it, but I really know so little about it.”
Gotta love his honesty but seriously, we bet half the voice actors on that franchise couldn’t pick an Autobot from a Decepticon if their life depended on it.
