That’s one way to follow in Leonardo DiCaprio’s footsteps!
Sources are confirming that Shia LaBeouf has left his agency, WME, as of last Friday. From now on, his career will be taken care of solely by his manager, his attorney, and his own two cents, whatever that is worth.
This is a huge blow for the agency and a big middle-finger to the woman who got him all his best deals, like Indiana Jones 4 and Transformers, Megan Silverman.
Though the source says the split was amicable, we can’t see that being the case after all the hard work this chick has put into this guy and making him a star.
Oh, and the supposed reasoning behind his walk-off into agentless territory?
Leo did it! Shia is looking to pursue a route laid down by DiCaprio in his early career years.
Maybe you should have talked that over with him first, before you did it. As we recall, he was MIA for AWHILE in the industry until he hooked up with Martin Scorsese.
Good luck kid!
