Megan Fox Says It Was Her Decision to Leave Transformers
People is reporting that a rep for Megan Fox told them it was Megan's decision to leave the blockbuster Transformers series that made her a star.
"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 cast another actress as star Shia LaBeouf's love interest to move the story in a different direction.
Before Megan's statement, many assumed that Michael Bay decided not to sign her because of last year's fued. Megan is leaving a project that most actresses in Hollywood would kill to be a part of so we're not sure she's not just trying to save face. After all, the studio had a contract with her and the option wasn't picked up. In any event, it's too bad she's leaving; now some other actress will get to drive the Ferrari Autobot.
