Jeffrey Combs (born September 9, 1954) is an American actor highly regarded for his numerous roles in the Star Trek franchise, especially in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (DS9). He played multiple characters in DS9, including the Vorta clone Weyoun, which was his most significant and favorite role, and the Ferengi character Brunt. Combs uniquely appeared as both characters in the same episode, "The Dogs of War," becoming one of the few actors to play two different characters in one DS9 episode. Beyond DS9, he also appeared in Star Trek: Enterprise as the Andorian commander Shran, in Star Trek: Voyager, and in Star Trek: Lower Decks with voice roles. He also made television appearances in series like The 4400 and Babylon 5. He gained cult status for his role as Herbert West in the horror film Re-Animator (1985) and its two sequels. He has appeared in numerous adaptations of H.P. Lovecraft’s works, including From Beyond (1986) and Necronomicon: Book of the Dead (1993). His other film credits include House on Haunted Hill (1999), The Frighteners (1996), I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998), and FeardotCom (2002). In addition to on-screen roles, Combs has lent his voice to characters in animated series such as Justice League Unlimited and Transformers: Prime.

Transformers: Devastator is a 2025 American science fiction action film directed and co-written by Neill Blomkamp and produced by Zack Snyder and Jerry Bruckheimer. Based on Hasbro's Transformers toy line, it is the second installment in the Cybertron Quadrilogy and the sequel to Transformers Begins. The film stars an ensemble cast including Peter Cullen, Jeffrey Combs, Justin Chatwin, Sasha Calle, Kevin Nash, John Cena, Mads Mikkelsen, Katherine Waterston, Daniel Kaluuya, Idris Elba, Sam Elliott, and Josh Brolin as Megatron. In the film, Optimus Prime must lead the Autobots against a powerful, giant member of the evil Decepticons known as Devastator, while also coming back into conflict with the cruel Megatron. Transformers: Devastator opened in theaters on October 17th, 2025; grossing over $715 million worldwide against a budget of $150 million, the film was a financial success, though it received mixed reviews, with praise for its visual effects, action sequences, cinematography, performances (particularly Cullen, Calle, Mikkelsen, and Brolin), and musical score but with criticism to the plot, pacing, tone and length. A sequel, Transformers: Space Bridge, was released one year later.
