Gregg Berger to voice a character in Transformers Prime?

Posted on 07-27-2012 at 06:44 PM by Sol Fury under Transformers Prime

In a bit of post SDCC news from Comic Book Resources we have a further tease on a potential future development for Transformers Prime Season 3. We heard a while back that Nolan North would be joining the cast in some capacity for season 3, but it seems like he is not coming alone - in a special CCI panel on Fall of Cybertron, Nolan North mentioned that "He also felt honored to watch Berger and Cullen work, both on this project and the animated "Transformers Prime" series."

Take this as you will, but by all indications it seems that Gregg Berger, voice of Generation 1 and Fall of Cybertron Grimlock as well as Generation 1 Jetfire, Long Haul and Outback, will be lending his considerable voice talents to a character in Transformers Prime.

Of course there is no word on whom yet, so keep it TFW to find out more news as it reaches us!

Well this is certainly cool news!

If this isn't a hint of Grimlock appearing I don't know what is.

Stardust262

I certainly hope not.

Well i'll be

Spiderus Prime

Grimlock in Prime YESSS,and It's he not voiced a bug like David Kaye.

Shatterpoint

"Rage of the Dinobots" tes into Season 3!

Right? Y'guys?

Stardust262

This doesn't necessarily mean he's voicing Grimlock. He could always be voicing Jetfire, Long Haul, Cheetor, Motormaster, or someone new

ErbFan28

I guess that means Grimlock will be in Prime

Sideways77

Oh, please no Dinobots...

I don't need more things to be dissappointed with in this series...

Galvatron Rage

I'm glad to hear that a G1 voice actor is gonna be in Prime, but I dunno about Grimlock being in Prime. Doesn't seem like it would fit too well.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'd rather seem reprise someone else. I would NOT be disappointed with Grimlock though!

We'll see!

Ask yourself: what are the actual chances he's voicing anyone other than Grimlock - poster boy of the new game, headliner of the Season 3 tie-in comic, and the most popular character he's ever voiced.

They're not gonna bring in Berger to do some bit part.

Starfire22

This better mean grimlock is coming to TF prime.

Awesome news all around.

Zhadow

People say Grimlock.

I say oh yeah.

I am much more excited about Nolan being in Prime than Greg. He is great, I don't usually like voice acting in games but Nolan always aces it.

Autovolt 127

Come on Corey Burton as Shockwave.

And atleast almost the entire gang is back. Maybe Dan Gilvezan could voice Pre-Mute Bumblebee and i'l be good with G1 role reprisals.

Gads, can't we move on?

As long as Grimlock doesn't sound as stupid as he did in the old cartoon it'll be okay.

Sol Fury

Maybe he'll be Thundertron? Grimlock's not the only voice Gregg can do.

seekerblackout

Gee, I wonder who he'll voice.

Maybe Mudflap!

Ratchets Hatch

Well since the Dinobots are already confirmed, I think it's pretty obvious who he will voice.

PrimesRule

No Dinobots... Jetfire, please!

Since when were the Dinobots ever confirmed? And do not say because of Transformers: FOC because that is hardly proof.

The "Rage of the Dinobots" mini makes it pretty obvious at least one of them will be showing up.

Kylehudson14

Grimlock!

They weren't confirmed. Somebody asked the guys at the panel with the Dinobot Comic if the Dinobots would appear in Prime. They responded: "Not necessarily, read the comic to understand."

orangeitis

If it means toys of the rest of the Dinobots, I'm all for them being in TFP.

FanimusMaximus

Yeah! I'm so hyped to hear him do Long Haul!

Jetbolt

I hope to Primus they don't make the Dinobots into stupid pet like bots for the Autobots. Just for once I want elite fighting and smart Dinobots.

rxlthunder

I'm not surprised.

citygrl903

No Dinobots please. Dinobots have no place in the show.

bignick1693

Ya Grimlock in.

Motor_Master

Oh yes Greg Berger doing Grimlock in Prime would be awesome, esp if Grimlock is characterized like he is for FOC or the original Marvel Run.

SpycrabKiller

If we could kill off a main character *hint hint* that has way too much screen time, let's have Nolan North's character be that.

Actually, fire all voice overs except for Peter Cullen, Gregg Berger, Nolan North, and Jeffrey Combs.

Have them do every character in the show, please.

Crazy Ramjetty

the big grim is back in action!!!!!!

DragonPrime120

Didn't Dan Gilvezan voice G1 Outback?

I replied without reading through the thread, so no.

EDIT: Sorry, you're right. It turns out I was thinking of this thread, the title of which was very misleading:

Dinobots Coming to TF Prime

Sinnertwin

You know, with all this...did everyone just like...forget that the writers stated, before Season 1 was even finished airing, that the Dinobots were part of their long-term plans (read: a possible [at the time, confirmed now] Season 3)?

soundwaverulls

So someone from Prime showed interest in the Dinobots in the future, we're getting a Dinobot centered comic that ties into season 3 and now Gregg Berger is going to voice someone in the show.

I think it's safe to say that Prime's getting the Dinobots. My only problem is that they never stop getting Gregg Berger to voice him. How are we supposed to take Grimlock seriously with that stupid voice?

Sinnertwin

Uhhhh

Berger hasn't voiced Grimlock since G1.

MandarinQuake

I hope Berger does join Transformers Prime man! It would be awesome and great to bring back voice actors from the past!

[Wing_Saber-X]

OMG.

And why not have Berger? A large part of Grimlocks popularity is the way he spoke. "Me, Grimlock!" is one of the most well known lines from G1, it is to Grimlock that 'Roll out!' is to Prime...

dovianax

I met him at Supercon and he was a class act!
When I met him I had such a freaking GEEK OUT I had to go running to my table at artist alley and make him this, and of course give him a copy of EVERY TRANSFORMERS print I was selling!!!
He wasn't sure if he was getting a Prime gig when I talked to him, but if this happens, it couldn't happen to a nicer guy!

Ravenxl7

As much as I'm looking forward to the Dinobots in TFP, I honestly don't want Gregg to voice Grimlock. I want someone NEW for that role. Also, when was Nolan North confirmed? Last I knew he was someone they would like to have voice someone in the show, but that they hadn't actually hired him yet...

I think he's counting FOC.
