Megan Fox to Make Border 'Crossing'2009-04-16

Actress Megan Fox has been tapped for a new project involving a run across the Mexican border.

The star of the upcoming 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' was cast as the lead in the thriller 'The Crossing,' according to the Hollywood Reporter. The Screen Gems production -- which could begin shooting as soon as July -- focuses on a couple carjacked while returning from a Mexican vacation and the husband is kidnapped.

The wife (Fox) must smuggle heroin across the border in an attempt to free her husband. Screen Gems president Clint Culpepper notes that Fox is ideal for the role. "Megan has both a vulnerability about her and an unbelievable
strength," he told the trade paper.
