In that same year, Harnell voiced the characters of Ironhide and Barricade in the Michael Bay-directed Transformers, making him the only voice actor to play both an Autobot (Ironhide) and a Decepticon (Barricade) in that film. He returned to voice Ironhide once again in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Transformers: Dark of the Moon as well as Barricade in Transformers: The Last Knight. Harnell voiced a character in Up and replaced Brad Garrett as the voice of Professor Buffo in Special Agent Oso.
