Washington: Shia LaBeouf has reportedly exited from Barry Levinson directed all-star comedy ` Rock the Kasbah .``Kasbah` was a story of a has-been rock manager who takes his last remaining client on a USO tour of Afghanistan. In Kabul he discovers a young girl with an extraordinary voice and manages her through Afghanistan`s version of `American Idol,` the wildly popular Afghan Star.
In a supporting role, LaBeouf was supposed to have played part of a military duo; McBride was the other half. According to the sources, the parting was an amicable one, reports the Hollywood Reporter. The `Transformers` star came onto the project in February, just two weeks after he said he was retiring from "all public life" because of attacks against his artistic integrity.
