Does a Gory Death Scene Await Megan Fox in Transformers 3?

Megan Fox has certainly not lived up to the hype — if you were casting her as the leading lady of your movie, and throwing all the advertising dollar to promote that fact. But when it comes to opening that mouth and letting the fur fly without regard for, you know, what other people might think, then Megan Fox has certainly lived up to the hype, and then some.

But has Fox finally gone too far when she recently joked that her “Transformers” director Michael Bay was like a socially retarded Hitler? Possibly. Word is, that comment may have gotten her killed. In the next robot movie, that is.

Movie industry insiders tell In Touch Weekly, Michael is considering writing Megan out of the series in a gory death scene in the first few frames of Transformers 3 and replacing with another gorgeous young actress.

“Michael’s pretty much discovered Megan and now he’s very quietly looking for her replacement,” the source spilled. “He hasn’t decided if he’s going to kill her off in the next movie, but he just wants to be prepared.”

Obviously you can’t take the above to the bank. In Touch is one of those gossip tabloids, and word is, Fox’s people have come out to deny the reports. Of course, that’s what “her people” are supposed to say, but you gotta figure Michael Bay, being human and all, will at least put Fox through the wringer on part three just to remind her whose boss.

Then again, as visually eye pleasing as she was in “TF2″, it’s still all about the fighting giant robots, right?

...then again...
