That was until everything unfolded on the sets of the $790 million movie that changed LaBeouf’s entire perspective on the director all at once. Recalling how he felt while meeting Spielberg for the first time many years after the movie, he said,
“You get there, and you realize you’re not meeting the Spielberg you dream of. You’re meeting a different Spielberg, who is in a different stage in his career. He’s less a director than he is a f***ing company.”
Continuing, he also talked about how he felt that the sets of the legendary filmmaker’s movies were more than enough to crumple the artistic ideas of anyone on sets.
“Spielberg’s sets are very different. Everything has been so meticulously planned. You got to get this line out in 37 seconds. You do that for five years, you start to feel like not knowing what you’re doing for a living.”
But despite his idolizing Steven Spielberg and even getting disappointed after meeting him and working with him,Shia LaBeoufwent on to work on several more projects with the renowned director.
