Rosie Huntington-Whitly to Replace Megan Fox

One of the biggest casting dramas in Hollywood may be drawing to a close. Although Paramount has not confirmed it, Victoria’s Secret has released a video congratulating leggy underwear model Rosie Huntington-Whitely for landing the ingénue role in Michael Bay’s Transformers 3.

Just a few weeks ago Paramount declined to pick up Fox’s option for the third Transformers movie, touching off a wave of speculation concerning Fox’s replacement. While Huntington-Whitely may be short on acting experience, she is definitely long where it counts--in the “gam” department--where she sports one of the best sets seen in Tinseltown since the heyday of Juliet Prowse.

Patrick Dempsey (Grey’s Anatomy) has joined the cast of Transformers 3 as Megan Fox’s boss, according to Variety. Fox and LaBeouf return to their roles from the first two films in the series.

Director Michael Bay will begin shooting the film this month, according to the report, to be ready for a July 1, 2011 release.
