Shia LaBeouf alleged that Sigourney Weaver once slapped his father, Jeffrey LaBeouf, for hitting on her on the set of the 2003 film "Holes." The actor made the claim at the 2026 Fanboy Expo in Knoxville, Tennessee, during a "Transformers" reunion panel. Shia also stated that Lucy Liu "couldn't stand" his father, who was always hanging around the set since Shia needed an adult supervisor. Shia recalled that his father was "fresh out of prison" and was hitting on all the women on set, including the "Charlie's Angels" cast members. The actor's contentious relationship with his father is well-documented and was the basis of the 2019 film "Honey Boy." However, Shia has since expressed regret about "vilifying his dad on a grand scale," insisting that his father was loving to him his whole life, though "fractured" and "crooked."
