Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Transformers 3)


Recommended Posts

This is a bad sign. Megan Fox was on set just a few weeks ago, and filming was supposed to be from May 17th to July 1st. This means the script was written with the Mikaela character, but it looks like she was 'fired' in the last two weeks which means they have absolutely no time to do a decent script re-write without the character. :no:

More sources to make it official:

Megan Fox has been axed from " Transformers 3," Access Hollywood has confirmed.

Nikki Finke, who first reported the news for Deadline that Megan was out, claimed that decision was "ultimately" director Michael Bay 's.

Megan Fox is seeking to transform rumor to fact.

The actress is slamming speculation she was booted from the third installment of the Transformers action film franchise.

?Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3," reps for the actress, 24, tell PEOPLE. "It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.?

Citing unnamed sources, Variety reports the studio and the film's director, Michael Bay, intend to case another actress as star Shia LaBeouf's love interest to move the story in a different direction.

Shooting for the film, slated for a July 2011 release, is expected to kick off this summer in locations across the U.S.

Fox, meanwhile, is prepping for the June 18 release of Jonah Hex, an action film she stars in opposite Josh Brolin, John Malkovich and Will Arnett.

PEOPLE

Hmmm, Megan is crazy.

Michael Bay is NO Hitler... DUMB statement.

:/

This is really BAD for her movie career!!!

She is hot, but her ungrateful "Hitler statement" about the man made her famous, definitely will cause many people to think twice before casting her.

This articles says ALL kinds of bad things about her! Probably NOT all true though.

Honestly, if Megan is out, they shouldn?t try to give Shia?s character a new love interest; recast the Mikaela character, maybe; but a complete new one? After all those two went through in the previous two movies. it simply doesn?t look right, I?d rather having him alone...

she is hot, kinda dumb but still hot. also how will the movie start without her in it lol. why not have her in first 15 mins and then she gets killed or something.

That would be awesome. It would be great comic relief :)

Ladies and gentlemen - though mostly the gentlemen will appreciate this news - have we got a scoop for you!

GeekWeek has learned from an inside source that Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley will soon be cast to replace Megan Fox in TRANSFORMERS 3. Details surrounding her character are still pending.

Another interesting tidbit for you: she's currently Jason Statham's girlfriend.

Reports that Megan Fox left Transformers 3, and not the other way around, are looking more plausible now. The Wrap has a source ?close to the actress? who claims that Fox walked away from the film because Michael Bay was ?verbally abusive.? Fox ?had enough and decided to get out early.? This squares with previous statements that Fox has made about Bay, calling him a ?tyrant? and a difficult director to work with.

The Wrap?s Jeff Sneider speculates that ?it?s highly plausible that Paramount studio chariman Brad Grey?s well-known relationship with [Deadline] editor-in-chief Nikki Finke played a part in how the story was initially spun.? Deadline was the first to break the news this past Wednesday that Fox was out of the sequel. For its part, Paramount is still claiming agency in the decision. Said the studio: ?Paramount had the unilateral right to exercise an option for Megan Fox to appear in ?Transformers 3.? Paramount at its sole election allowed the option to lapse.?

I just want to say, Megan Fox didn't walk off.. she got fired and hearing otherwise is just a publicity stunt.

She's a two-bit ######.

Hopefully this new actress whose actually PRETTY can actually ACT too.

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
