Could be trauma from someone higher up in Hollywood. Terry Crews opened up about being grooped by a high level male executive. Brendan Fraser has also claimed to have had the same thing happen to him and that compounded his long hiatus. Neither restored to homophobia, but this seems to have come out of nowhere with Shia, so I'm inclined to believe there's trauma involved.

No, he's just gone full "Christian" after multiple stints with rehab.

LaBeouf contributed an essay to the 2004 book I Am Jewish by Judea Pearl, in which he stated that he has a "personal relationship with God that happens to work within the confines of Judaism".[118] LaBeouf had described himself as Jewish,[119] but declared in 2007 that religion had "never made sense" to him.[16] However, LaBeouf said in an interview in Interview magazine in October 2014 that "I found God doing [the film] Fury. I became a Christian man [...] Brad [Pitt] was really instrumental in guiding my head through this."[120]

In an August 2022 interview with Bishop Robert Barron, LaBeouf said that he had fallen in love with the Catholic faith while studying for the titular role of the film Padre Pio and staying in a Capuchin monastery in the process. He stated that the Traditional Latin Mass played a key role in his conversion.[121][122] In May 2023, LaBeouf confirmed that he was undergoing the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults.[123] On December 31, 2023, LaBeouf was confirmed into the Catholic Church by Bishop Barron and it was said that he had expressed a wish to enter into the diaconate.[124][125]

Huh. Maybe his friend Brad Pitt needs to give him a call.
