\"Peter<\/p>\n

Veteran actor Peter Spellos<\/strong> — who starred on the TV series “American Dreams” and an animated ‘Transformers’ series — is dead after battling pancreatic cancer … TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n

Peter died early Sunday morning while he was at Franciscan Hospice House in Indianapolis … according to his friend and acting student, Jennifer Smith<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jennifer, who has power of attorney for Peter, tells us he’d been receiving care at the facility as his health deteriorated, and she adds … “He was loved and cared for and surrounded by people during his final days.”<\/p>\n

Peter was perhaps best known for voicing the character Sky-Byte on the “Transformers: Robots in Disguise” cartoon series. He played the role for 39 episodes, and it made him a big hit on the comic-con circuit.<\/p>\n

Besides his extensive voice work … Peter was also a live actor in movies and TV. He played Motorman in “Men in Black II” and Gus in the NBC show “American Dreams.”<\/p>\n

His brother, James Spellos<\/strong>, says Peter will be cremated, and the family is planning an online gathering for fans.<\/p>\n

He was 69.<\/p>\n

RIP<\/p>\n
