Shia's Shattered Hand Keeps Him Unemployed

Eagle Eye star forced to drop out of upcoming thriller, is in need of another surgery to repair the hand he injured in a car crash

Shia LaBeouf isn't feeling very hands-on right now.

A source confirmed to E! News Friday that the severe injury the Eagle Eye star suffered to his left hand in a July 27 rollover crash has forced him to pull out of his latest film.

"Shia’s hand is totally shattered; it’s much worse than anyone thought," the source said.

The 22-year-old LaBeouf, who was able to work around the injury to complete filming on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, dropped out of the upcoming technology-themed thriller Dark Fields. Production had already been delayed thanks to its now former star's medical issues.

But at least it looks as if a solution is in sight.

LaBeouf, who already underwent one extensive surgery in the days immediately following his accident, requires a second procedure to further repair the area around his thumb.
