Paramount has announced that they will not be picking up Megan Fox’s option for the upcoming Transformers 3!
Megan Fox & Michael Bay
According to sources inside Paramount, this decision was initially Michael Bay’s to make. So it looks like the franchise that made her famous doesn’t want anything to do with her anymore. They are “giving Shia a new love interest makes more sense for the story.” Story has nothing to do with it.
Many may recall Megan Fox’s numerous comments about Michael Bay and compared him to Hilter. This is the classic case of the biting the hand that feeds you. Fox hasn’t had much film success outside of the Transformers films, with Jennifer’s Body only pulling in $30 million world-wide. The next on her slate is Jonah Hex which looks like it’s going to be absolutely awful.
Bay and Fox have been going through a war of words for awhile now and it looks like Bay got the final word in and the ultimate revenge.
Transformers 3 is set to hit theaters July 1, 2011
UPDATE: Since the news broke that Megan Fox was not welcomed back to the Transformers franchise, she is now stating that it was her choice not to return for the third installment and she wishes everyone the best. Doesn’t that just sound like a press release?
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that Megan Fox and Michael Bay where probably not keen on working together again in the first place. I bet both were sitting around waiting for the other to say something and when they realized they felt the same way it became a no harm, no fowl situation. No ones toes got stepped on and everyone goes home happy.
Sexcellent.

I’d still hit it :shrug:
HHAHAHA – Yeah, I’ll totally bet that was her decision. What other movies has she got going on? What was the last thing she did? OH WAIT – Maybe its because she’s an idiot who can’t act. And nevermind the fact that she trash talked Bay after the last TF. Winnah. I’m even willing to bet Platinum Dunes even let her say that, just so she could save face. But that’s the opinion of one.
