The viral marketing Transformers website SectorSeven.org has revealed that Hugo Weaving has been cast as Megatron in the upcoming Transformers movie.

This news is a disappointing announcement to some hardcore Transformes fans who had hoped that original Megatron voice actor Frank Welker might joing Peter Cullen (the original Optimus Prime) in the feature film…but, to those hardcore folks, I say – This ain’t our Transformers anyway. It would have been nice to have Welker in the movie, but Hugo Weaving is a good choice for this. He has a commanding voice that will add some much needed menace and talent to the Transformers cast.

Transformers hits theaters on July 4th, 2007.
