It’s back to the surgery room for Shia LaBeouf.
The Transformers star was involved in a late night car crash earlier this summer, which was finally determined to be caused by another driver running a red light – though Shia was drunk driving.
The crash sent him to the hospital.
When he left, he did so with a cast on his left hand. And now, it looks like his hand might need some more surgery.
In a recent interview, LaBeouf says, “I’m working right now. We propped [my hand] together so I could get through ‘Transformers’ and then I’ll go have another surgery and be back to 100 percent.”
Shia is currently promoting his new flick, Eagle Eye. The movie comes out September 26th.
LaBeouf also admits that his hand was worse than what was originally reported.
Shia adds that his fingers are “good”, but just “broken.”
As for the accident causing delays while he was filming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Shia was very vague about that.
He did say about director Michael Bay that, “He plows through. I think we had a day down, two days down, and then we got back to some second unit stuff that we had to get anyways, and I was back two or three weeks before anybody projected me coming back.”
Let’s hope Shia’s late nights of drinking are over as well.
And after he’s done with all his surgeries and rehabilitation, he should be thankful it was only his hand that was injured.
It could have been a lot worse!
