Shia LaBeouf Supports Documentary Exposing Alleged Abusive Behavior at Acting School

The film, directed by a former student, includes footage of physical altercations and examines power dynamics at LaBeouf's now-closed theater collective.

The documentary 'Slauson Rec,' directed by Leo Lewis O'Neil, features 800 hours of footage documenting Shia LaBeouf's experimental acting school from 2018 to 2020.
The film includes scenes of LaBeouf's alleged physical violence, including a confrontation where he shoved a student against a wall and tightly restrained him.
LaBeouf has publicly expressed full support for the documentary's release, stating he encouraged O'Neil to share his experience without edits.
The acting school, which LaBeouf described as a transformative creative space, closed in 2020 during the pandemic, shortly before allegations of abuse in his personal life surfaced.
The documentary is currently seeking distribution and has reignited discussion around LaBeouf's history of abuse allegations, including an upcoming trial involving FKA Twigs.
