The thread was made in July, somebody just brought it back from the dead by posting and bumped it back up. So no, you're not getting a medal for knowing about this project for a year, as I have known longer than that 
But concerning the voices, george clooney isn't really on the radar right now. That was a rumor that came out several months ago but was denied up and down by both Don Murphy and Clooney.
Right now the push is to have Peter Cullen and Frank Welker be the main voice actors. Don Murphy is behind it, Spielberg is behind it, and at least we know right now that Michael Bay UNDERSTANDS it. But it's still his call on whether or not to include the original voice actors. Don Murphy has said that they are nearing the end of the debate and it will be settled very soon. But right now it's still undecided.
Good news for right now, Soundwave is NOT a helicopter as once reported. Murphy came out and squashed that notion once and for all, but that means the mystery continues as to who he will be and if he'll be like his original G1 form, with the transforming cassettes and all. Nobody expects him to be a cassette player, so if they include his minions (rumble, ravage, frenzy, etc.) then the writers will have to come up with something very creative.
In other news, Activision has the rights for the movie video game (finally be able to kick ass with Optimus in truck form) and Hasbro has plans for an invasion of toys from the movie.
