Say what? That's right. In what seems to be a done deal, Paramount has told CNN that Megan Fox is out of Transformers 3. This confirmation comes moments after Deadline.com reported that Megan Fox was out. Written by Nikki Finke, she's got this to say;

I've just learned that Paramount won't be picking up Megan Fox's option on Transformers 3 -- and that it was "ultimately" director Michael Bay's decision. (So he gets his revenge for her remark comparing him to "Hitler".) Right now Bay and writer Ehren Kruger et al are finishing up the script for the threequel and "giving Shia a new love interest makes more sense for the story," an insider tells me. Bay will start casting immediately for the new female co-star.

Good Lord. I can only hope this is not a rumour.

Funny thing is, me and my friends were actually talking about Megan Fox. Too bad about that, man. :lol: :-(

Given that the story says her "option won't be picked up" it seems a bit funny they'd already be filming scenes with her.

And to start looking around now for a female lead? That's something you'd think they'd already have done.

I'll take this with as much credit as the Micheal Bay quote that the twins are not back for t3.

Have you seen scenes being filmed with Megan Fox? I've only seen pics of her walking around Bumblebee when he was brought out of storage...

Well to add fuel to the fire, multiple scources are reporting this as well. VH1, Access Hollywood, and local LA news.

If this indeed true, makes me wonder who will replace her.

This sounds more like the Bay Machine spewing hype into the Hollywood atmosphere than anything else.

While this news excites me to a degree, I'll have to say that I'm not looking forward to the new female lead (if this is indeed true I mean). Bay prefers women who he thinks are better for the shot (meaning nice rack and a big butt), with that in mind, and the fact that he's looking for a girl who is to be in her mid twenties, I'm not at all looking forward to who he chooses. There aren't any appropriately aged (for the part) actresses right now that I know of who both look good and can act. I mean look at his pick in Fox, she acts about as well as a bit of wood and emotes worse than one. Of course this could all be for nothing and it could just be more of his mouth-born excrement.

Take it with a grain of salt is right. I'm in prove it mode over here: until such time as we have confirmation otherwise, Fox is still in the picture and I call BS on rumors to the contrary.

Hope I'm not being too grumpy about it, because I admit there's no need for it. I'm just sayin': don't believe the hype until it's proven fact.

And again, why would she be allowed to do that if she wasn't in the film?

You know, if they're going to try to make us think someone's not in the film, they should choose people who haven't been seen on-f***ing-set!

And AGAIN, her "option won't be picked up". Why allow her on set if her contract wasn't set?

I want to see less skin and more metal. But we need to make enough money off of transformers 3 to make transformers 4.

You think the ticket sales will be hurt with her absence?

Anyway I hope the rumors get squashed, We have photos of her on set and her complaining and convincing the transformers 3 people that she does not need a tan.
