Could it be true? Could the man who voiced Galvatron in Transformers The Movie really be providing a voice for one of the characters in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen?
If Michael Bay has anything to do with it he will, as the two are actually related. Yup, our favourite action movie director and the pointy eared one from Star Trek are what the Americans like to call ‘kin’.
Leonard Nimoy is actually married to Michael Bay’s cousin, so the dream of having another voice actor from the original animated classic appear in the new movie could become a reality.
Michael Bay explained in an interview with MTV:
I’m still not done with all the voices
When asked about Nimoy, Bay added:
You know, he’s related to me,” laughed Bay. “And now that you are filming this, maybe you can send it to him.
[Nimoy] is married to Susan Bay, who’s a cousin to me. I just feel kind of bad about asking him. Like ‘I can’t pay you that much? But would you do this voice?
Would he do it? He suggested to my mom that he might do it.
It’s nice to know that even in Hollywood and on a multimillion dollar movie, someone still to ask their mum to ask their cousin’s husband if they’ll come out to play.
