GREENSBORO, N.C. — This year... WFMY News 2 turns 75! So to celebrate... We're opening the WFMY News 2 vault.
On April 28, 2012, we met an Alamance High School student whose talent was taking him to Hollywood.
"Over the summer in 7th grade, he came back to school and his voice was way down here," said a friend.
Fourteen-year-old Jake Foushee discovered he had a talent for changing his voice!
So he posted a video of himself doing movie trailer voices.
"He just came up to me behind me and did his movie guy trailer voice and said my name I just turned around like who is this guy talking to me like this"
His video caught the attention of talk show host Ellen Degeneres.
He appeared on his show and she signed him to a Hollywood talent agent!
According to IMDB, he has eight acting credits... Including as the voice of Optimus Prime in multiple TV series and video games.
