Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Replaces Megan Fox in Transformers 3

Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley appears to be replacing Megan Fox in Transformers 3, according to Victoria's Secret.

Paramount has not confirmed the casting of the 23-year-old English model, but Victoria's Secret released a 90-second video Monday congratulating Huntington-Whiteley -- calling her "our angel" -- for getting the part. Watch the video below.



Paramount announced May 19 that it decided to not pick up Fox's option to star as Mikaela Banes in the third installment, opting for another actress to star as the love interest for Shia LaBeouf, who plays Sam Witwicky.

Production is currently underway.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon was released June 29th, 2011 and stars Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Julie White, Kevin Dunn, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Alan Tudyk, John Malkovich. The film is directed by Michael Bay.

    Well said. I can respect that. Too bad. I didn't really care for her at first, but she grew on me (and made me grow as well) by the second one. I still haven't seen Jennifer's Body, but I saw the extended trailer and I think I'll be renting it soon. I love the Thai food line. Great!

    @Vanboy Uh... she HAS an ass. LOL. Of course it's not a widely recognized and shapely as beautiful as Megan Fox's ass. But I agree. She should have kept her mouth shut. I mean its the last film for cryin' out loud, and everybody is taking the abuse, the crew, everybody. Nobody is saved from Michael Bay's *sshole rants, megaphone or not. So unless Megan Fox was consistently singled out and humiliated on set in front of everybody, then I see no reason for her to have left this last movie. And maybe that's exactly what happened, Bay getting angry with her. We all know Fox is confident but her acting is not capable of attaining certain emotions or believability. And she has a little attitude about her, but as I said if she was humiliated I can see her saying that's it, and getting her agent on the phone and walking.

    Nah. She can push her ass out as much as she wants, she still doesn't have one. Megan is hotter. I hope Trans 3 sinks Bays caareer. Megan should have kept her mouth shut and bit the bullet. She knows first hand what an *sshole Bay is. She had to work with him. Shia will miss Megan. He'll probably leave next.

    This is a step backwards for Transformers 3, at least for now. She has to prove that she is a step up from Fox.

    it all about eye candy it nothing else there is no acting ability there it all for show Parmount would have been better trying to get Gemma Arterton at least she is actress not a model prancing around in Knicker and bra all day.

    Gaaaaaaaaaayyyyy... if she is going to be Milkaela. If she is going to be a completely new character, it might still be gay because chances are there will be a one-liner in Sam's dialog that will account for Mikaela's leave off-screen between movies, which is what they always do. The only way this can make sense to me, is if Sam is still in/out of college and him and Mikaela broke it off because of the long-distance relationship thing. That's the only relevant situation that will make sense to me. But it still may not be enough. Sam and Mikaela have went through a lot in this series, have faced death together. So I can't beleive Bay would be such an a-hole, I mean, jeez this is the last movie, was it that bad he couldn't have her in one more movie to finish the series, and then call it good and never work with her again? He had to let her go before that? Gimme a break. Fox may be absent-minded but from what I have read there's been no indication she's out of control or hard to work with. Michael Bay, on the other hand....

    Well if this ain't a totally slap in the face to Fox... I mean 90 second video? Really? For one chick?

    Again why not cast someone hot and who can act?

    I think it was said in another update that she will be a "new" love interest. I'm guessing that means a new character, at least that's how I'm taking it.

    So, drop one model for another. I hope her acting isn't worse then Megan's. Don't know why they wouldn't go for someone that is hot and can act. I guess it's cheaper this way. Either way I'll still go see it.
