Megan Fox to Be Replaced by Victoria's Secret Model in 'Transformers 3'?

By PopEater Staff Posted May 25th 2010 07:30PM

Though Heidi Montag made an impassioned plea to director Michael Bay to be Megan Fox's replacement in 'Transformers 3,' it appears another blond is the front-runner for the role. Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is rumored to be at the top of Bay's list to play Shia LaBeouf's love interest in the third film of the hit 'Transformers' franchise, the LA Times is reporting.

Supposedly, the model read for Bay last week. And although she has no previous acting experience, she's a favorite for the role.

Other names on the rumored short list include Sarah Wright (she starred in 'The House Bunny') and Sports Illustrated cover girl Brooklyn Decker.

Paramount, the studio behind the blockbuster, told RadarOnline.com, "There is nothing official, so it's no comment right now."

While it's been unclear whether Fox left the franchise on her own or was let go, the actress hasn't been quiet about how unhappy she was working for Bay. And while the director might not be sad to see her go, there is one person who will miss the outspoken actress -- Tyrese Gibson. He told MTV News, "I was sad about it, man. Genuinely. We built something here. We all did. We all put our own sauce and stamp and energy on this franchise."

Production on 'Transformers 3' began earlier this month.

I heard that Ashley Greene was up for the role. I think she would be great.

I am sorry, but if there was a problem with Megan Fox, there should have been a solution to fix it. I hate when movies change out characters. This makes me not watch them anymore. Maybe, Megan was the only one that had the courage to speak against him! Then she was punished by it. I probably wont see it know which is upsetting bc I own the other 2 movies.

There are worse things Megan Fox could do. For example,Just picture this....SUPREME COURT JUSTICE MEGAN FOX. Or how about this.....PRESIDENT MEGAN FOX. Personally,I'd much RATHER see Megan Fox as President than Sarah Palin. I,for one,would sleep a LITTLE easier at night. Let's hear some feedback on THIS one.

Here's a thought...Let's get a REAL actress to play Megan's tarty role.

All I can say is Meghan Fox is stupid for leaving or letting herself get fired from such a money makeing movie but Shia LaBeouf is one lucky guy for the girls he has to do scene's with damn.

motime ring tones is a rip off stay away from it

By Michael1124

I think Zoe Saldana would be the best choice for this role. She's beautiful and she can act.

By Sandy

I hate to see Megan Fox go - she is a part of Transformers and I will totally miss her if she is not going to part of it

I'm just glad Heidi Montag's 15 minutes are just about up.

Why would anyone even give a rats azz ???????????????

By John F. C. Taylor

Please! Let's not use replacement. Replacement would be someone stepping into the same role. Whoever they get as a love interest for T-3, it'll be a new role. That would not be a replacement.

By Barbara

I can see they're going for Megan Fox's talent level when replacing her. I'd think a model may even be a better actress.

By DG

Megan Fox is a nuisance. She should not be allowed to speak in public. She it beautiful until she opens that pie hole. Kind of like Tyrese, "our own stamp and sauce"? Maybe that's what wrong with the franchise. I can't believe you let him in #2. Get rid of him next!
Rosie H Whitely is a great pick.

By Merritt

Casting Heidi Montag would be a horrible decision and would cause me to skip the movie. I think Brooklyn Decker would be
fantastic.

Heidi is nothing but a bad joke. She thinks she is an actor now since she is made of plastic. LOL.

Even more hilarious is getting a victoria's secret model to be an actress, please. All she an do is walk back and forth on a runway. LOL The movie will bomb without Megan Fox in it. She was the biggest draw to the stupid movies. No Megan, no money for you movie man.

Just goes to show that anyone can "act" in hollywood today. I just hope the 3rd movie starts with sam waking up and realizing that the 2nd movie was all a dream. That's about the only way to cover up that mess.

By Elizabeth

That one model seems good for the role (but then again, I've never watched the Transformer movies). I think House's Olivia Wilde would be great also.

By joe

this is crap no one can replace megan fox she was perfect for that role................they can kick rocks with no shoes on
