USA Today recently spoke with Michael Bay who talked about Megan and her role in Transformers 3.
Bay couldn’t care less (about being called Hilter and being a nightmare to work with). Really. “I love her,” the man responsible for the blockbuster franchise told USA TODAY’s Andrea Mandell. “It’s just, she’s young. Everyone’s got to give her a break, she only…23? It’s just hard. I’ve traveled around the world with her and she’s just like this world symbol now, you know?”
So he brushes her diatribes under the carpet? “Absolutely,” he said. “She called me (after the Hitler comment) and goes, ‘It’s all bullsh—t, Mike.’ The press, they just like to prey, and stalk, and pounce and find a good little juicy thing. But she’s always wanted to do these crazy comments. That’s just her. She’s great.”
He also said, “She’s got a great part in Transformers 3,” and he said he’s currently working on the script. So Bay’s not planning on getting revenge by, say, killing her off? “No, no. no,” he said, dismissing it. “She gets enough of that already.”
I can’t wait to see what “great part” Bay has in store for Megan. Hopefully he’ll stick to his word and not kill of Megan’s character. July 1, 2011 cannot come any faster.
