Hugo Weaving  (The Matrix, Lord Of The Rings) recently sat down for an interview and spoke a bit about voicing Megatron in the Transformers franchise. Not only does he have little interest in those films, he’s also never even met Michael Bay:

Weaving said,

“Oh no,” he barks with a laugh. “They’re not making Transformers III, are they?” Given that Transformers II made $800 million, they’re probably going to have to.

“[Director] Michael Bay talks to me on the phone. I’ve never met him. We were doing the voice for the second one and I still hadn’t seen the first one. I still didn’t really know who the characters were and I didn’t know what anything was. It’s a voice job, for sure, and people assume I’ve spent my life working on it, but I really know so little about it.”
