Shia Takes Cover As Things Heat Up on Set

The LA set of Transformers experienced some real-life action yesterday when an accidental fire broke out in a house where Shia LaBeouf had been filming. The cast and crew stood out on the lawn while the fire department took care of the blaze, and Shia even took refuge underneath his shirt. Shia may be becoming a big-time action star, but he was probably content to leave yesterday’s drama to trained professionals.

It’s the sequel to the third-highest-grossing film of last year. It is drinking from a wellspring that features more than 20 years of beloved mythology. Michael Bay is making it, so you know it will be loud, explosive and most important of all, awesome.
There are a lot of reasons to care about the sequel to “Transformers,” so when fast-rising “Rambo” star Matthew Marsden came to MTV News for his first-ever interview since landing a high-profile role in the film, we revved our engines faster than Optimus Prime taking Shia LaBeouf for a joyride.

Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci talk Shia

CS: This is your second movie writing for Shia, so were you able to tailor the dialogue more to what he could do as a character or did you want him to do something different than he has in other movies?
Kurtzman: Yeah, certainly we had a great experience with him on “Transformers” and his voice is very very specific. It actually helped us quite a bit in conceiving his character in “Eagle Eye” and that in turn helped us in the conceiving of his character in “Transformers 2″ so we’re now on Movie #3 with Shia, so I think more than any other actor out there, we have his voice in our heads.

Scoop on Shia LeBeouf, Megan Fox and Transformers
Posted by admin on June 26th, 2008 | Comments (6)
I recently received the following email from the brother of my lovely co-worker, Pregnancy and Parenting producer, Allison Busacca. Allison’s brother Cameron had quite the encounter with Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox during the filming of the Transformers movie. Who was nice? Who was really rude? Get the scoop here:
After about an hour of watching the crew unload equipment, Shia LaBeouf came on set around 8 a.m. to film what appeared to be a “move-in” day scene right next to the Princeton University Chapel. After several takes, the crew moved out onto the street to shoot a few stunt scenes on Washington Street. Most of the cars looked brand new (there was no futuristic Chevy Camaro in sight, which was a bummer) but after a few takes, one of the cars had bullet holes and a smashed windshield, which led me to believe they were filming a chase scene. Shia’s stunt double nearly got hit several times by another car, and the crew shot the scene from different angles up and down Washington as if all of the shots were going to be pieced together later. And even though the stunt drivers went really fast, you could tell that they speed it up even more in the editing process. Read the rest of this entry»
