Michael Bell, the voice behind Sideswipe in Transformers Gerneraton One, was interviewed by the good people over at the MoonBase 2 Podcast.
The series is currently being cast by Susan Blu, who voiced Arcee in the original G1 series.
Bell said in the interview that he auditioned for the roles of Ratchet and some guy named "General Fowler." Sounds like the series is going to have some military might involved. What we need to know is if this Fowler is going to be an ally or an obstacle in the Autobots path.
Also, on a side note, Mr. Bell stated that David Sobolov, the voice of Depth Charge in Beast Wars, was auditioning as well.
