Shia LaBeouf has had a rough year since his serious car crash last Summer, which eventually made him lose his license. He's finally got some downtime to recover between films, but apparently the hand he hurt in the accident will never fully heal. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the actor talks about his progress, his embarrassment over last Summer, and how sometimes you just have to dust yourself off and keep moving forward. Here are highlights:
On how much usage he'll regain in his hand: "Probably about 80-something percent. I'll be able to make a fist again. There's a knuckle I'll never be able to move again, but that's probably the only permanent damage, other than the scarring."
On getting back to work on Transformers 2: "When I came back it was just out of the guilt that I had. I pride myself on my professionalism, and this is the first issue I've ever had where I wasn't able to come to set, and it's f---ing heartbreaking when you gotta look at your crew. You know, what can you do? You just gotta grab your balls and move forward. There's nothing else to do. The thing that cut deep to the core of me was knowing that there were 65 human beings [in the crew] who are like family to me, waiting for me to come back. They were sitting on their asses doing nothing because of my . . . you know, my situation. It's the most intense s--- I've ever dealt with, and am still dealing with. I mean, if people look at me like a drunk a--hole, that's okay. But I know my family looks at me like a whole different person, and I know my crew respects me immensely. And at the end of the day, I can't do much more."
On recovering from his initial surgery: The first voice I heard when I came out of surgery was Harrison's. Harrison [Ford] called me on the phone and said, "Hey, are you okay?" I said, "Yeah, I'm good." He said, "Well, then you need to get back to work." I said, "Are you serious?" He said, "That's the way this cookie crumbles." So I went back to work. The show doesn't stop for anybody.

西亞李畢福 左手活動力剩8成
張士達/綜合報導
暑期電影大戰一觸即發,打頭陣的《X戰警:金鋼狼》即將登場,《哈利波特:混血王子的背叛》連忙「偷吃步」,宣布將提前兩天加入戰局。
哈利波特 大動作搶市
《變形金剛2》則派男主角西亞李畢福以手部傷勢打出悲情牌,首度揭露他的左手將只剩下8成活動能力的驚人真相。
原定去年11月上映的《哈利波特:混血王子的背叛》,當時宣布延到今年7月,搶暑期票房的大動作震撼影壇,本周又宣布提早兩天至7月15日周三上映,藉著多搶兩天的票房飆高首周周末成績。
手指重建 至今未復原
不過《變形金剛2》的西亞李畢福則可能是今年暑期檔最慘的明星,他去年拍攝時發生車禍,因左手剛好伸出車外,連手指骨頭都慘遭壓碎,得從自己臀部削下骨頭來重建手指,至今已9個月仍未復原。
修改劇本 全身傷加碼
西亞李畢福本周接受《娛樂周刊》專訪,表示當時車禍後先緊急接受數小時簡單手術,然後不到兩周就回到劇組復工,因為《變2》是兩億美元(68億台幣)預算的超級製作,他無法讓劇組空等。
他當時出院就接到在《印第安納瓊斯:水晶骷髏王國》中老爸哈里遜福特(福伯)的電話,問他說「你還好嗎」,他說「還好」,福伯就接著說:「好,那你該回去拍片了。」
劇組還得修改劇本好將他的手部包紮融入劇情,他帶著手傷繼續演出追趕跑跳碰的動作戲,全身上下一共又多縫了25針。
