Megan Fox out of Transformers 3

Washington, (ANI): Actress Megan Fox has been reportedly dropped from Transformers 3.

According to a report from Access Hollywood, a source who works at Paramount, the studio that produces the film, said Fox"s character would not be revived in the third installment of “Transformers," as producers want to take Shia LaBeouf"s character Sam Witwicky in a different direction, reports Fox News.

Director Michael Bay apparently made the decision months after Fox compared his work approach on set to that of Hitler and Napoleon.

Production on the third installment has already begun, according to reports.
