Variety is reporting today that Megan "Transformers Hooker" Fox has signed to play Aspen Matthews in Michael Turner's Aspen, a comic that debuted in 1998, at the height of the 'big boobs and impossibly small waist' wave. Turner, who passed away last year after a long and arduous battle with cancer, will remain as executive producer. The comic centers around Aspen Matthews, an Olympic swimmer and marine biologist (?!?) invited to study at a top-secret 
underwater science facility known as the DMD, built around the discovery of unknown undersea craft. Aspen soon finds that she's connected to the ship's owners, a race of malicious undersea dwellers. How the script plans on explaining the bright orange sheen to Ms. Fox's skin after months in a sea-floor laboratory, remains one of the films lingering mysteries. James Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment had previously been attached.

I'm impressed by two things; one, that Megan Fox has decided she can't act (good job, she can't), and has succumb to good, old-fashioned, boob and popcorn movies; and two, someone made the executive decision that Fox needs to be around water for an entire movie (preferably naked, or in a swimsuit) running around shooting things.
Finally, to Denise Richards, my congratulations. Christmas Jones, your ludicrous character from The World Is Not Enough, no longer retains the title of "Least Believable Scientist in the History of Film." Perhaps congratulations also are in order for Ms. Fox, the quasi-hooker cum tattoo parlor employee, who now possesses the illustrious crown.
