In 2008, LaBeouf suffered a much more minor injury on the set of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen when he bumped into an on-set prop, sustaining a small cut below his eye. Just last year, while filming Brad Pitt’s war movie Fury, his co-star Logan Lerman told GQ magazine that LaBeouf had made cuts to his own face to make his battle wounds look more realistic.
Shia had something of a strange year in 2014, turning up to one of his own movies’ red carpet parties wearing a paper bag on his head with ‘I Am Not Famous’ written on it. He also conducted a totally silent interview with Dazed and Confused magazine in November, and alleged that he was sexually assaulted at a gallery exhibition he was hosting in February.
American Honey is set to be given its world premiere in October 2015, before a worldwide theatrical release in 2016.
