Shia LaBeouf's Crystal Skull

Shia LaBeouf arrives at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City before the Late Show with David Letterman.

In an interview with Variety, Shia talked about meeting the veteran actor Harrison Ford for the first time. “The first time I met Harrison we were on an Air Force base doing stunt and vehicle training. He arrived in a big chopper and everyone stopped what they were doing. He got out of the helicopter, pulled a whip out of the glove box and proceeded to pull a sword out of a man’s hand using the whip. He then introduced himself to everyone.” And this is the same tough guy who is putty in the hands of the slight, trim, girlish Calista Flockhart. He’s also the kind of guy who makes his own phone calls and doesn’t put you on hold.

Shia will also be starring in the movie New York, I Love You, which will be released later this year, and will be in Transformers 2 where he will reprise his role as Sam Witwicky.
