Megan Fox + Judd Apatow = Comedy? Fox in Talks to Appear in 'Knocked Up' Spin-Off

Don't look now, but Megan Fox is becoming a comedic actress. The "Transformers" star has become the go-to girl for the role of "hot woman in romantic comedy," having already appeared in Simon Pegg's "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People."

Fox also just wrapped filming on the comedy "Friends With Kids" which stars Jon Hamm and Kristin Wiig.

Now, Hollywood Reporter is saying that Fox is in talks to appear in Judd Apatow's newest romantic comedy. The film is the much-discussed "spin-off" of the Seth Rogen and Katherine Heigl comedy "Knocked Up," in which Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann will reprise their roles.

Megan Fox's role in the comedy is unclear, but considering the project it's likely that it will contain some comedy. So that begs the question: can Megan Fox do comedy? We haven't seen much from her yet, as the starlet has mostly been in films like "Transformers," "Jonah Hex," and "Jennifer's Body."

Even when she has appeared in comedies thus far, she has played the straight man (or woman, I suppose) more than she has delivered punch lines. Even in her Funny or Die video, the comedy was more in the situation than Fox's dialogue.

Whether or not Fox is cast in Apatow's film, we should see her comedy skills in action in "Friends With Kids," which releases in 2012.
