Talking about that moment, she said, "That was absolutely the low point of my career. But without 'that thing', I wouldn't have learned as quickly as I did." The actor was given the chance to resurrect her future with the franchise by offering an apology, but she refused. "All I had to do was apologise, but I refused. I was so self-righteous at 23, I couldn't see [that] it was for the greater good. I thought I was Joan of Arc," said Fox.
She added that while the firing "hurt her and those around her" it "caused brisk spiritual growth". Fox was dropped from the cast of the third movie Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) and was replaced with model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Since then, Fox and Bay have managed to repair the rift between them and worked together on his reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) and in 2016.
