Musician Sia, who cast LaBeouf in her video for “Elastic Heart”, voiced her support for Twigs, while alleging that LaBeouf had “conned [her] into an adulterous relationship”.
Neither LaBeouf, Wilde nor New Line Cinema, the film’s backers, responded to Variety’s calls for comment.
“I’m not in any position to tell anyone how my behaviour made them feel,” LaBeouf wrote in a statement to The New York Times.
“Insiders close to the project say LaBeouf displayed poor behaviour and his style clashed with the cast and crew, including Wilde, who ultimately fired him,” the report claims.
