Reports are circulating that Megan Fox has been ousted from the cast of “Transformers 3,” with insiders telling Deadline that giving Shia LaBeouf’s Sam Witwicky a “new love interest makes more sense for the story.” Paramount has confirmed the news to GossipCop.

We could dissect the behind-the-scenes drama all day long, but a simple fact remains: Paramount needs a replacement. It’s not an enviable task given how deeply Megan Fox’s character Mikaela Banes was connected to the action movie’s human story — indeed, Lorenzo di Bonaventura told MTV News just last month that reports of Fox leaving the film were “silly” — but the reality is, LaBeouf needs a new love interest… and we’ve got some ideas for who that could be.

Come play matchmaker with us after the jump as we propose some possible candidates to replace Megan Fox in the next “Transformers” film!

Lacey Chabert: Of course, finding someone with relative obscurity isn’t a bad idea, either. That’s part of what made Fox so compelling in the first place — mainstream moviegoers knew very little about her. That’s the same case for Lacey Chabert, who had a nice part in “Mean Girls” (and, long ago, “Party of Five”) but hasn’t been in the spotlight too much lately. She’s a beautiful actress with plenty of talent to back up her looks — a combination that could serve the human side of the “Transformers” franchise quite nicely.
