The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Tom Kenny will voice Starscream in the upcoming Transformers cartoon show, which as far as we know is to be named; Transformers Heroes. Originally the article reported that it was rumored that the voice actor, best known for his portrail of Spongebob Squarepants, was given the part of Starscream on the upcoming Transformers Movie. However, this was soon corrected and confirmed that Kenny would be part of the new show's cast.

Bwahahaha, this is gonna be a great series.

[Switchpoint]

Is this a good thing or not?

[Windracer]

...no... Michael... Dobson...? ;__;

poopy!

But hearing Tom Kenny play Starscream should be... interesting, to say the least.

[Prowl76]

This series should be cool.

[Marcus Rush]

Penguin is good, but Spoungebob Starscreampants?

[Evil Phil]

Well with the number of voices he's done, I think he'll do a great job as Screamer.

[Sunstar]

I hate, no purly loathe Spongebob. I can't stand the fragger. I hope the starscream does not sound like that pratt

[Thanatos Prime]

Spongebob is actually a pretty decent choice IMO.

[MaikeruSama]

SCREW THIS SERRIES. Spongebob as starscream i dont get it? I like all of the movie designs but starscreams voice in the cartoon ass spongebob.... no.

[Sunstar]

I can't stand spongebob. Never have, never will.

[ghostofstarscream]

SCREW THIS SERRIES.

errr...well put... hahaha

Seriously though, this could be interesting (in a good way). Tom Kenny is a great voice actor and I can definitely see him getting the shrill treachery of Starscream's voice right.

What else has this guy done?

[Darth Screamer]

You've got to be kidding me.

Gees! Why not get the moron from coach, who plays Patrick to be a voice as well.

Awesome! This is news but no tthe info i really care about in regards to this cartoon. I want character designs and story info.

[TheMuffin]

Awesome. Pure awesome. I think people will be surprised when they hear his voice. Spongebob is only the voice he's best known for. $5 says he does the best Starscream voice in years.

It's cool to see a different set of actors for this series.

Tara Strong
Tom Kenny

Freaky thing is they are the top two voice actors right now for being put in shows.

[Nemesis_Apoc]

I don't care if he did Spongebob, I have nothing but faith in him.

[proximus]

Don't put out the fire on this show just cause you hate spongebob..I mean common seriously. Voice actors do a plethora of work. It's like saying you won't watch transformer cause you hate star trek, knowing that Frank Welker voiced "young spock" in ST3.

Seriously, Absurd. If anything it shows his diversity and talent.

[MaikeruSama]

look this is a good pic a cheaply made on pain I call him Screamerbob

[Shadowman]

It's cool to see a different set of actors for this series.

Tara Strong
Tom Kenny

Tara Strong is in this? Do we even know who she's supposed to play? I'd bet she'd do a good Arcee.

And good god, people! Do you think he can only sound like Spongebob?! He's done other voices, you know.

I;'m not sure about Screamer, though I'd bet he'd be great. I was expecting more like Bumblebee. he could do an EXCELLENT Bumblebee.

And no, Michael Dobson isn't availible for this series. Nor is Gary Chalk, or anyone else you might've heard in the Unicron Trilogy. This is being done by American voices, I think the only exception is David Kaye.

It'd be nice. The first American-Made cartoon since G1. (BW was Canadian, so was BM, everything else was Japanese)

[MaikeruSama]

Kaye is doing primes voice.

[dabattousai]

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Who lives in a galaxy so far away?

STARSCREAM SQUAREBOT

[Uncrazzimatic]

I think some people need to realise that he isn't going to use his Spongebob voice for this role.
