The actor, 38, stepped back from the spotlight after his ex-girlfriend FKA Twigs filed a lawsuit in 2020 accusing him of physical and emotional abuse during their relationship.
LaBeouf has denied the allegations made by the UK musician and a trial was supposed to take place this year, however, it has now been pushed back to September next year by a US judge.
He controversially stepped out at the Cannes Film Festival in May for his first red carpet appearance in years, but apart from that, he’s laid considerably low since the claims went public.
In the wake of the claims made by FKA Twigs – real name Tahliah Debrett Barnett – the Transformers star shared a statement addressing the allegations.
He told the New York Times: “I have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalisations. I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I have a history of hurting the people closest to me.
“I’m ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt.”
LaBeouf then revealed he was taking a hiatus from Hollywood and was seeking help at an inpatient facility in 2021.
The same year, Twigs opened up about her relationship with LaBeouf in an interview with Elle.
“I love what I do, and [filming Honey Boy] was an incredible experience,” she told the outlet. “But then I ended up being preyed upon. At what point does Hollywood stop looking at money and start looking at people’s safety?”
LaBeouf has since said that he ‘denies all allegations’ posed in the sexual battery lawsuit, despite him publicly discussing the validity of the allegations.
