No other details are confirmed at this time so stay tuned for updates.
Bumblebee: The Movie is set to premiere in theaters on December 21.
Personally I really enjoyed his previous voicing roles for characters in the Transformers franchise so it is nice to see him return. It is going to be interesting to see what character he will play and just hearing his voice in a live action Transformers production will be quite the experience.
EDIT: David Sobolov has revealed that he will be voicing Blitzwing.
#Transformers fans… It’s time to reveal I’m the voice of Blitzwing in @bumblebeemovie ! Thank you Travis Knight and @ParamountPics for this exciting chance to work on another epic @transformers adventure. pic.twitter.com/ifsoxlFvmR
