Megan Fox to star and get very wet in 'Fathom'

Uber babe Megan Fox who became pretty much the most desried woman on the planet for fanboys everywhere after 2007's 'Transformers' is set to play the lead of role of Aspen in the adaption of the late Michael Turner's 'Fathom' according to Variety.

The cript will be written by Jordan Mechner, best known for designing the "Prince of Persia" vidgame.

The story follows Aspen Matthews, who was found abandoned on a ship and is adopted by a military man. She becomes a champion swimmer and marine biologist who comes of age realizing she has water-based powers and is part of an underwater race. The actress will produce with Safran Prods.' Peter Safran, Brian Austin Green and Steve Bessen. Turner, who passed away last year, will remain as the project's executive producer. Frank Mastromauro will also be an exec producer.

I like Megan Fox and not just for the obvious reasons, she has drive and a sense of humour in her interviews and has not just rushed into rom coms after her Transformers success. The concept for this is pretty cool and from the art ive seen the world of Fathom could be quite the specatcle on screen, hopefully a top quality director is soon attached.
