The Search For Shia's Sidekick Continues!! Jonah's 'Comic Relief' For TRANSFORMERS 2 Is Not To Be!!


Merrick here...

A week or two ago, we got word that SUPERBAD's Jonah Hill was in talks to play Shia's sidekick in TRANSFORMERS 2. You can find an article about it HERE.

LaBeouf has been deemed sidekick worthy? Just what are the criteria for earning a sidekick? And, how humiliating would it be to play sidekick to...Shia? What does this say about our universe?

In an case...

Now comes indication that talks with Hill have derailed.

Transformers 2 negotiations between Jonah Hill and DreamWorks have broken down, and the Superbad star is no longer expected play a sidekick to Shia LaBeouf in the upcoming sequel from director Michael Bay.

...says THIS SNIPPET at Entertainment Weekly.

No word on who'll get the gig in lieu of Hill. More info as more comes in.
