Earlier this month, Megan Fox was spotted doing previz shots for Transformers 3, but now Variety is reporting that she will not appear as Mikaela in the third installment after all.
Paramount Pictures reportedly decided not to pick up her option as the studio and director Michael Bay want to take the story line in another direction and plan to cast another actress as the love interest for Sam Witwicky, played by Shia LaBeouf. The trade says the decision “was unrelated to a September interview with a British magazine in which Fox compared Bay with Adolf Hitler.”
The third installment is scheduled to hit theaters on July 1, 2011.
