Orson Welles

George Orson Welles (May 6, 1915 – October 10, 1985) was the voice of Unicron in Transformers: The Movie. He was born in 1915 in Kenosha, Wisconsin and in 1938 he made a bunch of hillbillies convinced Martians were invading the Earth with his War of the Worlds radio show. He also made some movie called Citizen Kane.

It wasn't until 1985 that Mr. Welles finally fufilled his true destiny by playing the planet-gobbling world Unicron, although sadly Mr. Welles died before The Movie was released in 1986.

"I spent the day "playing a toy" in a movie about toys who "do horrible things to each other." - Orson Welles in 1985

"The irony of [Welles] playing a planet-sized eating machine wasn't lost on anyone." - Michael McConnohie
