Will Friedle, a well known voice actor for such characters as Batman (Terry McGinnis) from Batman Beyond and Lion-O in the new Thundercats (and Blue Beetle and Deadpool and ...) - is now the voice of Bumblebee in Transformers Prime. That is one impressive list. He had a chance to sit down with Comicbook.com to talk about his late arrival to the Transformers universe and what it was like to voice Bee in the last couple episodes.

ComicBook.com: What was it like coming on late and joining the show’s ensemble as it was a moving bus?

Will Friedle: It was incredible. It was one of those things where I joined in the last episode of the entire series and then did the movie afterwards. But I was a fan of not only the show but of the ensemble cast of actors for a long time. So being able to join playing anybody would have been amazing but getting to go and play Bumblebee was pretty incredible.

Being a fan of the show and a fan of the actors, I didn’t want to go in and screw it up. The last thing you want to do is go in and be the weak link on this fantastic show. Hopefully I did the character justice, and the movie–which comes out Tuesday on Blu-ray–is amazing. Just absolutely gorgeous if you’re an animation fan at all. It’s all state-of-the-art and it’s just beautiful from start to finish.

I started watching the original Transformers when I was a kid. It came out in ’84 and I was eight years old so I was watching every day, running home from school. So to be able to be involved was pretty incredible.
