LOS ANGELES - Shia LaBeouf is heading to Wall Street.

The “Transformers” star describes the film as “a walk and talk money movie” that’s “wordy and heady.”

Filming begins in August, an experience LaBeouf says should be like taking a college course — he says he has “no concept” of the ins and outs of the financial world.

“I don’t know what ... a credit derivative is,” LaBeouf said. “I have no idea. I don’t know what a CPO is. IPB. LVC. You gotta know ticker names.”
