Shia LaBeouf to bring his wacky performance art to Australia as part of a two-day festival dedicated to pop culture... but star stays mum about what he's going to do
He is known for his wacky antics - from wearing a paper bag over his head to watching all of his movies at once back to back.
And now Shia LaBeouf will bring his unique brand of performance art to Australia as part of Bingefest, a new two-day festival celebrating pop culture.
The work, which is yet to be announced, will be created with artists Nastja Säde Rönkkö and Luke Turner, who were also involved in the communal three-day screening of all of Shia's movies.

Over the last few years, the 30-year-old actor has appeared on red carpets wearing a paper bag which says 'I am not famous anymore'.
The Transformers actor has since engaged in a number of participatory works.
He and his friends answered emotional phone calls from people in Liverpool, England, and recently travelled around North America by tweeting their coordinates and inviting the public to take them anywhere.

Bingefest, which will take place at the Sydney Opera House, will also celebrate culture curated and grown on the internet over the last few years.
'The Opera House is about exploring and reflecting the culture around us as its morphs and evolves,' Bingefest founder and curator, Danielle Harvey, said of the inspiration for the new festival.
'Television, podcasts, gaming and the internet at large create an artistic frame through which we view the world.
'BINGEFEST is the culmination of all of these wonderful moments.
'We cannot wait to explore binge culture at the Sydney Opera House in the all-encompassing, immersive environment that only a festival can create.'

For those not interested in sitting around with their eyes transfixed on a screen, two intimate dance classes will be held - teaching participants how to dance to the music of Rhianna or Beyonce.
And if the watching or dancing leaves guests hungry, the Redfern Convenience Store, which boasts a loyal customer base and Instagram following due to owner Hazem Sedda's friendly nature, will offer a pop-up store.
Bingefest will take place at the Sydney Opera House from Saturday December 17 to Sunday December 18 2016. Tickets will be on sale on October 14.
