'Beneath his golden crown': Shia LaBeouf's unrecognizable appearance in 'Megalopolis'

Shia LaBeouf's Greek Goddess Transformation – A Hollywood Sensation

When you think of Shia LaBeouf, you probably don't imagine him adorned in gold jewelry and a white dress, strutting through the streets of Atlanta. But that's exactly what happened during the filming of "Megalopolis," and it's a sight to behold.

"No one and nothing could have predicted" that Shia LaBeouf, known for his leading role in "Transformers," would turn into an ancient Greek woman, as reported by Greek City Times. In the captivating stills, LaBeouf can be seen casually walking the streets, clad in golden high heels, a revealing white dress, and makeup that included false eyelashes and no eyebrows. This transformation "touched every corner of the planet" as fans and media were mesmerized by the astonishing change.

The overall effect of LaBeouf's look reminded many of a drag queen. The careful application of cosmetics, the golden jewelry placed around his arms, neck, waist, and head, and the tresses enhancing his hair all contributed to the striking resemblance. Even the revealing tear in the dress, which left his legs exposed, became a talking point, though not everyone was impressed.

"Megalopolis" – A Mysterious ProjectAs yet, little is known about LaBeouf's exact role in the film, except that it's science fiction and follows an architect who sets out to rebuild New York after a catastrophe. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, the film boasts a star-studded cast including Adam Driver, Forest Whitaker, Laurence Fishburne, Jon Voight, Dustin Hoffman, and Aubrey Plaza. Intriguingly, "Megalopolis" has been financed entirely by the director himself.
