Megan Fox
May this be a lesson to all of you and, might I add, I am slightly amused. In short: Don't talk shit on your director, especially Michael Bay. Case in point...
Megan Fox Fired from Transformers 3
Megan Fox openly stated that she thought Transformers 2 was -- I don't remember the words exactly -- stupid so many months back and Michael Bay also openly called her out for doing so. But, it turns out it doesn't end there, as Paramount has announced that they've decided to abandon Megan Fox for the third Transformers installment.
While a lot of us will assume that the firing of Megan Fox comes as a final revenge by Bay over her making fun of his movie and then comparing him to Adolf Hitler, sources inside Paramount claim that the decision is more related to the film's plot. Sources close to the production indicated that Par and director Michael Bay want to take the storyline in another direction and plans to cast another actress as the love interest for star Shia LaBeouf, who plays Sam Witwicky.
Michael Bay is directing the third installment off a script by Ehren Krueger. The plot details are still being kept under wraps.
