Insiders are tipping Fox as a 'strong candidate' for the role of the sexy action heroine, reports Daily Star.

Meanwhile, Fox has publicly blasted her fianc� American actor Brian Austin Green for not escorting her to the Golden Globe [Images] Awards in Beverly Hills on January 11.

Fox, who was among the presenters, had arrived at the event minus Green causing a lot of speculation.

'He doesn't wanna be here. He doesn't want to be my date. He's a man, he has an ego,' she said explosively.
