"I was completely familiar with Transformers. I grew……" — Anthony Anderson
"I was completely familiar with Transformers. I grew up watching the cartoon, playing with the action figures myself, Optimus Prime and Megatron and all these guys. That's my era. And to play with these same toys that I played with, 25 years later, with my son, and not only to play with them, but to have a chance to take my son to the movie and have him watch me in it, that's why I had to be a part of it. So, when I heard that they were making this film, and that there was the possibility of a character I could play in it, I was like, 'I have to be in this.' And I'm such a fan of The Transformers that even if I wasn't on board, I'd be saying 'They better not mess it up.'"
