Well, since the film is now out in Japan, Mark Walters over at BigFanBoy.com went ahead and spilled the beans. Contrary to reports that Leonard Nimoy was voicing The Fallen, it has been revealed that Tony Todd has taken the honor. Tony Todd is the voice of The Fallen! Info From Movie Geek Feed: <b>Tony Todd Voices The Fallen!</b>
Oh crap......Candyman is the Fallen? Is that how they get him out of the glyph stone? Say his name 3 times?
EXPLAINS the whole "Afraid of asking Nimoy" thingy, Bay probably already had a guy in mind, and it was Tony! Plus ain't Bay a gigantic horror movie fan? Yeah.

Awesome now when ever I see the Fallen my mind is going to associate him with bees, which is then going to make me think of the new Wickerman, but in all seriousness Tony Todd is perfect.
I doubt it'd happen since it might be last minute (who knows when Tony Todd went in to do the voicework), but it'd be a fun nod to the choice in voice if they had Steve Jacobson do a send-up to the Candyman music, that Philip Glass song, as part of the score when The Fallen first appers.
