Shia LaBeouf and his collaborators Nastja Säde Rönkkö and Luke Turner are currently hitchhiking across the country using the hashtag #TAKEMEANYWHERE for their latest project.

From May 23 to June 23, the trio will tweet out coordinates and allow fans to pick them up and take them wherever they want.

“With these projects, we try to retain a naïveté, or that’s the goal,” Shia told Vice. “The goal is to sort of stay naïve, stay impressionable, stay malleable.”

A documentary is being made about the journey.

Shia‘s past performance art projects have included watching all of his movies straight without sleeping in a NYC movie theater, and staying in an elevator for 24 straight hours.

There’s also an interactive map you can follow.

Surely this couldn't end badly. (I assume he'll still have a bodyguard with him... I would hope.)

 

[zeemumu]

No...not again...

 

[Salz01]

This is what rich people do that have no real jobs?

 

[HStallion]

and Shia was never seen again...

SHIA
DON'T COME TO PHILLY

 

[Ray Wonder]

What if someone took him to an acting school and dropped him off

I think he's a great actor... you don't think so? He was great in Fury and Nymphomaniac.

It's 3 people plus camwras; there wouldn't be room for a body guard. Anyone messing with them would get caught, wouldn't stop a true crazy but I think the risk is minimal.

Tweeting out coordinates that several fans might try to rush towards in vehicles could cause issues though.

 

[Liquidsnake]

I would take him to like yellowstone, and sit on a cliff with him; and just talk about life.

 

[obin_gam]

So he just want to roadtrip without paying?

 

[Gleethor]

Pretty sure he buys lunch and stuff for whoever picks him up.

 

[SecretDan]

He was/is an actor.

What is a real job?

 

[HStallion]

So is Shia going to follow the Rules of the Road? Cash, Gas or Ass if you want a ride!

 

[fallengorn]

Some dude got sucker-punched in NYC because he looked like Shia... so, good luck with all that.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I unironically like this guy.

 

[Gaz_RB]

I unironically like this guy.

Me too. He does some interesting stuff and I like most of the movie he's been in.

 

[styl3s]

It says it's being filmed so maybe one of the people with him is a bodyguard? The kind of person who is crazy enough to him would of attempted it long ago im sure he has someone he checks in with or at least the people/person with him making the documentary.

 

[SecretMoblin]

I've come around on him tbh

his existence makes people upset, and I appreciate that.

 

[Liquidsnake]

When is he going to act again, I enjoy his movies.

Charlie Countryman was very entertaining.

 

[Ray Wonder]

I think he's a great actor... you don't think so? He was great in Fury and Nymphomaniac.

I think he's good, I just thought that would be funny.

 

[rObit]

Seems fun but potentially dangerous? Cool idea as long as they're reasonably sure they'll be safe.

 

[santi_yo]

I love him. This is just too good.

 

[digitalrelic]

I think he's great as well. Just the right amount of crazy.

 

[God Dayumm]

I've come around on him tbh

his existence makes people upset, and I appreciate that.

Him and Jaden Smith are the secret treasures of Hollywood

 

[santi_yo]

This is awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGNHlUCy_mA

 

[Koomaster]

No...not again...

You I like. This is the first thing that came to my mind as well, haha.

But I like Shia, so I hope this ends up being a positive experience for him.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

Thumbs up

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

"BUNCH OF HANDSOME MOTHERFUCKERS"

This is great.

 

[Robert-One-Oh-seven]

I like the guy. Nothing wrong with being a little weird from time to time.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Wow gaf loves Shia now?!

Im not fooled. Shia suxx. Also pls stay safe, This sounds like it could end terribly

 

[sphinx]

I can say that Sia's video he did with Maddie Ziegler is the most I've liked him.

They both really knocked it out of the park.

and the ending is just heartbreaking

Admitedly, I haven't seen some movies mentioned him but I am pretty sure he's good.

 

[DedValve]

How does this make anyone upset? He's just doing his own harmless thing.

 

[echoshifting]

This actually seems less risky than his art project where he just sat in a room and let people do whatever they wanted to him. I hope it works out well.

Absolutely agree. What they both did was great.

 

[Captin Quacker]

No...not again...

You does this look so familiar?

(Googles)

Bruh why you gotta bring up harsh memories
I'm still pissed about that

 

[More_Badass]

And the 80s horror remake continue. Whatever casting director thinks Shia Lebouef can even be half as good as Rutger Hauer and Sean Bean is insane

 

[CelticKnight]

Seems fun but potentially dangerous? Cool idea as long as they're reasonably sure they'll be safe.

He'll be fine as long as they're picked up by some normal, well adjusted people...

 

[The Driver]

This seems pretty cool. Wonder how far or where in the country he'll actually get to when he's at the mercy of his fans.

 

[Couleurs]

SHIA
DON'T COME TO PHILLY

Who better to get revenge for the murder of Hitchbot than the guy who was in the Transformers movies?

 

[Goodstyle]

I hope he doesn't get raped again.

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

He's 20 minutes from my house right now - but in transit. I tweeted and asked if I could drive him to my mom's to introduce them; she loves Shia.

 

[Monocle]

Hope he has fun. He should gopro his experience.

 

[Disgraced]

He's 20 minutes from my house right now - but in transit. I tweeted and asked if I could drive him to my mom's to introduce them; she loves Shia.

DON'T PLAY NICE

RUN 'EM OFF THE ROAD

AREN'T YOU A REAL FAN?!

WOULDN'T YOU DO ANYTHING FOR YOUR MOTHER?!

 

[ZackieChan]

So is Shia going to follow the Rules of the Road? Cash, Gas or Ass if you want a ride!

My understanding from my time on the road is that it's "Ass, Gas, or Grass." Who needs cash?

I think he's good, I just thought that would be funny.

Just admiring the shape of your skull, Shia...
