Moviehole.net is reporting that Darius McCrary, the voice behind Jazz in the Transformers Movie is in talks to reprise his role as the Autobot for the movie's sequel, tentatively scheduled for release in June 2009.

This sounds a little odd, reviving Jazz in the second film, and you have to remember that director Michael Bay stated that false information would be leaked to purposefully mislead fans and spoilers.

In other Transformers Movie 2 news, Paramount Pictures UK have told us that they ave already received requests by UK media and press companies hoping to get On-Set-Passes in order to film / get scoops on the expected smash hit.

Thanks to ebay seller TransformersKing1977 and an exceedingly overpriced auction, $299, for a Transformers Animated Prowl toy, we can bring you the third official Transformers Animated profile. This time it's Prowl's profile, motto and abilities.

Name: Prowl
Motto: Through stillness you will find truth
Function: Spy
Profile:
Prowl has spent his life studying the secrets of the ancient art of Circuit-Su. Through its teachings, he has discovered the beauty of pure logic, and the invincibility of reason. All things - even combat - are subject to reason. If one is willing to calmly apply one's mental faculties to any problem, the solution will soon reveal itself. He often finds the chaotic antics of humans and other AUTOBOTS frustrating, but he will stop at nothing in their defense.

Galactic Powers and Abilities:
Master of Circuit-Su
Projects holograms for use as camouflage.
Can use any object as a weapon.

Don't forget you can find all three of the confirmed Transformers Animated Character Profiles over at Transformers Animated.

Thanks to The Allspark for finidng close scans of the packing for Transformers Animated Bumblebee and Lockdown, we can now bring you their official profiles.

Bumblebee

Moto: Enough talk. It's time for action!
Function: Speedster
Profile: The youngest robot on the crew, BUMBKLEBEE is what some - especially AUTOBOT RATCHET - would eall over-eager. It's not his fault he prefers action over talk. Talk is just, you know, boring. Especially when you could be racing at top speed into a fight, or boosting into the air to launch a few well-placed energy stingers at an enemy. Nothing scares BUMBLBEE, not even MEGATRON.

Lockdown

Moto: Run all you want. It'll make the chase more fun.
Function: Bounty Hunter
Profile: LOCKDOWN could care less about MEGATRON and his grand goals of universal domination. He's in this game for upgrades, pure and simple, and he wears the DECEPTICON badge because they're the ones who can get him the systems he wants. For the right price he'll unt down any targer and bring it in - functioning or not. As a bonus, every new target means new trophies his workshop wall. he enjoys his work, and he's traveled from one end of the universe to the other doing it, which is why he's got a collection of weapons and functions second to none.
