A representative for LaBeouf did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
LaBeouf, who first gained fame as a teenager on the Disney Channel show ``Even Stevens,'' is known for his roles in 2007's ``Transformers,'' 2008's ``Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull,'' and last year's ``Honey Boy," a film he also wrote about his relationship with his father.
He has had several run-ins with the law during his career, including a 2017 New York arrest for public drunkenness and disorderly conduct that was captured on a livestream video. He was sent to court-mandated rehabilitation for the incident.
