Whether you like her or not, Megan Fox is unquestionably one of the most well-known young actresses in Hollywood. She's appearing in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Jennifer's Body this year, but what's next for the 22-year-old actress? Fox has signed on to star in Jonah Hex alongside of Josh Brolin and John Malkovich in Warner Brothers' adaptation of the DC Comics series. But that's not her only comic book movie role! Fox has also signed on to star and develop a feature adaptation of Fathom, the comic book series from artist Michael Turner that was the inspiration for his publisher - Aspen Comics.

In Jonah Hex, Fox will play Leila, a gun-wielding beauty and love interest of Hex, a disfigured bounty hunter who is tracking down a voodoo practitioner that wants to raise an army of undead to liberate the South. Jimmy Hayward will direct that adaptation starting in April for a August 6th, 2010 release. In Fathom, Fox will play the lead character Aspen, who learns she is a member of a race of aquatic humanoids who possess the ability to control water. That adaptation is being written by Jordan Mechner, the creator of the Prince of Persia video game who just got a start writing screenplays with the Prince of Persia movie.
