Megan Fox, once a Hollywood sensation, has stepped back from the big screen due to a mix of personal choices and industry challenges. After her breakout role in *Transformers*, her career faced turbulence following a public feud with director Michael Bay, which reportedly affected her opportunities in mainstream Hollywood.

Fox has also spoken about the toxic culture in the film industry and her struggles with being typecast as a "sex symbol," which limited her range of roles. Additionally, she chose to prioritize her personal life, focusing on raising her children and navigating her divorce from Brian Austin Green. 

In recent years, Fox has made a subtle comeback in indie films and smaller productions, exploring roles that align with her interests. 

While she may no longer dominate blockbuster films, she remains a cultural icon, evolving her career on her own terms.
