- According to TMZ, Cullen died Wednesday at his Los Angeles home; no cause of death was provided.
- Cullen was born in Montreal in 1941 and began his career in Canadian radio.
- He originated Optimus Prime in the original cartoon and reprised the role in 1986 and 2007.
- He voiced Prime in seven live-action films, most recently 2023’s Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
When he came home, I could see a change. He was quieter and he was a man and a hero to me. I watched him and listened to him. I’d never had an opportunity to do a superhero, and when that came, [that voice] just came right out of me and I sounded like Optimus.— Peter Cullen, describing in a 2006 interview how he based Optimus Prime’s voice on his older brother Larry, a Vietnam War veteran
