What was Stallone thinking? Nobody is like 'oh cool he brought in a 2000s "action star" this time, the chick from Transformers'.
No bro, that's not going to bring in an audience, that's going to turn people off.
I don't even dislike Megan Fox, but she was never the box office draw people expected her to be. Even Jennifer's Body was a commercial disappointment.
shareShe pretty much torpedoed herself by badmouthing Michael Bay (which in turn really pissed off Steven Spielberg). Not a great career move for an emerging actress. If she'd played it smart, with the natural advantage of her looks, she'd have been far bigger. Not saying she'd be a guaranteed box office draw, but more successful than she has been.
shareYeah I think Spielberg fired her from TF3 for comparing Bays directing style to Hitler.
After I guess Bay felt bad for her so cast her as April in TMNT (which he produced like Spielberg produced TF)

Why would anyone be turned off by Megan Fox being in a corny 80s inspired action movie? You sound like an incel.
shareI AM BY NO MEANS A MEGAN FOX FAN...BUT I HAVE SEEN HER TURN IN SOME SOLID WORK IN MORE THAN ONE FILM.
AS FAR AS ACTION GOES...I THOUGHT SHE DID VERY WELL IN ROGUE (2020)
She did real good in this with doing a quick magazine load into a pistol. It looked liked she practiced doing it several times. Just like a John Wick movie.I hope a youtube video comes up with her at a range like they do with Keanua.
shareI think that movie is why she is in this, but "Rogue" with a box office of $242,884, shows her as a huge financial risk playing a female soldier.
