Transformers star Shia LaBeouf is trending on social media after he was spotted outside the Edinburgh-based OX184 bar to face a group of men on August 31, 2024. The moment was recorded on video and although the actor was seemingly prepared to confront the group, it did not lead to a brawl.

In the clip, which was acquired by The Sun, the group passed by LaBeouf and he began yelling at them while showing off his fists. He was also heard saying the following words:

"Let's go! I'm right here, motherf*cker."

Shia LaBeouf was wearing a navy blue jacket alongside gray pants and a baseball cap. He removed the cap, aiming to start a fight but was pulled back by two men due to which the situation did not take a worse turn.

Notably, the American Honey star was accompanied by three men as he went down the street to shout at the man. One of them was spotted controlling LaBeouf by holding his arms and preventing him from moving close to the other person.

On the other hand, netizens took to the comments section of a post shared by No Jumper on X (formerly Twitter) to share their reactions. The post included a clip of the confrontation and a user wrote:

Shia LaBeouf's fans supported him as they reacted to the video.

"They better chill before his camaro show up," a user wrote.
"Shia LaBeouf the goat man," another user wrote.
"Just do it already," a third user wrote.

Other netizens, however, did not support Shia LaBeouf's actions and criticized him, with some sharing funny reactions.

"Shia left the proceeded to lead them back for the hands & they still wasn't with it," a reaction reads.
"Shia is 38, he needs to STOP!" - another netizen stated.
"Shia gonna knock him out then dig a hole," a third reaction reads.

Some users shared their opinions on what was exactly happening in the video.

"Bro out there repping LA…saludos homie," a reaction stated.
"It's for a movie," another reaction stated.

Shia LaBeouf is dealing with a legal issue involving FKA Twigs

The Los Angeles, California native has had a long list of legal problems throughout his career and one of them is now going for trial in October this year. LaBeouf was sued by singer and his ex-girlfriend FKA Twigs back in December 2020, accusing him of abuse alongside s*xual battery, physical assault, and emotional distress.

As per the latest updates, FKA Twigs' legal team criticized Shia LaBeouf in June 2024 as he asked for the former's medical history. The attorneys that the details LaBeouf was asking for had nothing to do with the case.

The legal documents claimed that Twigs had already undergone a psychotherapy exam. Notably, Twigs stated in the lawsuit that she allegedly contracted a s*xually transmitted disease because of LaBeouf, according to The New York Times.

Twigs' attorney Bryan Freedman shared a statement with People magazine at the time, saying that his client would have been more successful than she is today if she never had to undergo the trauma she mentioned in the lawsuit.

Although Shia LaBeouf denied the allegations in an email, he stated that Twigs and many other women deserved a chance to speak about their experience and he would accept the blame for the things he considers himself responsible for.

LaBeouf and Twigs were romantically linked between 2018 and 2019, and the latter addressed their separation in an interview with Vogue magazine in March this year and said:

"I think naively I thought it would be like any other break-up, that I'd be sad for six months to a year, and then one day I'd wake up and everything would be fine. But the fact is being abused changes the whole of your nervous system."
