Wikipedia, I guess, with annotated links.

Fox reprised her role as Mikaela Banes in the Transformer sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. There was some controversy surrounding Fox's appearance while filming the sequel of Transformers when Michael Bay, the film's director, ordered the actress to gain 10 pounds.[26] The film was released worldwide on June 24, 2009.[27] Fox was to star in the third installment, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, but just over a week prior to the release of the film, it was announced that the reason Fox was not included was because of her statements comparing working under director Bay to working for Hitler (see below). Co-star Shia LaBeouf said, "Criticism is one thing. Then there's public name-calling, which turns into high-school bashing. Which you can't do."[28] Bay similarly amended his previous statements of support of Fox, and told GQ in June, for their July 2011 issue, that Fox was indeed fired on orders of executive producer Stephen Spielberg.[29]
