2023年、ピーター・カレン氏は、『トランスフォーマー』シリーズ全般にわたるコンボイ(オプティマス・プライム)役としての演技が評価され、子供・家族向けエンターテインメント分野におけるエミー賞の生涯功労賞を受賞しました。 同賞は、メガトロン役を演じたフランク・ウェルカー氏から授与されました。 ウェルカーさんはカレンさんについて、次のように語りました: 「1984年、状況が一変し、ピーターと私は『戦い』に入りました。私たちは『トランスフォーマー』を手がけることになったのです。 そこでもまた、ピーターはスーパーヒーローであるオプティマス・プライムを、私はその宿敵である邪悪なメガトロンを演じました。 あれから40年が経ちましたが、カレンさんのおかげで、このシリーズは今もなお、かつてないほどの勢いで続いています。 『トランスフォーマー』やオプティマス・プライムは伝説的な存在となり、ピーターの象徴的な演技は、彼を単なる文化の一部にとどまらず、オートボット戦士たちの揺るぎない、そして代わりのきかないリーダーへと押し上げました。 しかし、私たちが彼を認めているのは、その才能や素晴らしい声だけではありません。 彼という人間の内面こそが重要なのです。 誠実さ、忠誠心、仕事への情熱、仲間を思いやる心、そして観客への深い敬意…… それらすべてが、彼を今夜この場所へと導いたのです。」
本当に胸が張り裂けるようなニュースです。😢 司令官コンボイ(オプティマス・プライム)の英語版の声を担当されたピーター・カレンさんが、85歳で亡くなられました。 カレン氏はアメリカの伝説的な声優であり、オプティマス・プライムという役への献身は、彼のキャリアを通じて誇りとするものでした。 アニメ『トランスフォーマー』(G1シリーズ)におけるオプティマス・プライムの初期の演技においてカレン氏が下した多くの判断は、その後の同キャラクターの脚本や展開に大きな影響を与えました。 カレンさんは、オプティマス・プライムを演じるにあたり、米海兵隊員であった兄への敬意からインスピレーションを得た部分があると語っています。 命を愛し、守る力強い戦士であるオプティマス・プライムを演じる際、彼が心の拠り所としていたのは、兄から教わった「優しくあれるほどの強さを持て "Be strong enough to be gentle」という言葉でした。 カレンさん、これまでの数々の素晴らしいお仕事に感謝いたします。 私たちはあなたの言葉を心に刻み続けます。 さようなら。安らかに眠る。🙏

26 years ago today, Age of Empires II: The Conquerors arrived on PC. Back when an expansion pack could feel like an entirely new game. Big PC box, CRT monitor, hours disappearing before you even realized it. Still one of the best eras of PC gaming.
