Remember the time when Megan Fox likened Transformers director Michael Bay to Hitler?
Let me refresh your memory.
“God, I really wish I could go loose on this one. He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation. He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he’s a nightmare to work for but when you get him away from set, and he’s not in director mode, I kind of really enjoy his personality because he’s so awkward, so hopelessly awkward. He has no social skills at all. And it’s endearing to watch him. He’s vulnerable and fragile in real life and then on set he’s a tyrant. Shia [Labeouf] and I almost die when we make a Transformers movie. He has you do some really insane things that insurance would never let you do.”
It seems that time has somehow made Megan more fond of Bay.
“He was one of the most lovely people that I dealt with in making this movie,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “I’ve always loved Michael.
“We’ve had our battles in the past but even when I’ve been really outspoken about difficulties we’ve had, I’ve always followed up by saying that I have a particular affinity to him.”
She added: “He can be very vulnerable, and he’s very likeable and loveable. I’ve always been very vocal about that as well. But, sometimes we clash because we both have very willful, powerful personalities.”
Hmm. Lovable. I haven’t really ever heard Michael Bay described as being lovable before.
Fox’s latest film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will open in theaters on August 8. Watch the first trailer for the film below.
