"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" behind the scenes

After the Kid's Choice Sports Awards the other night, Paramount Pictures decided to give us fans a huge behind the scenes feature for their upcoming movie "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". The feature came in at a staggering 17 minutes, check it out below you will NOT be disappointed.

SPOILERS!!!! Only click play on the video if you're willing to watch scenes from the movie, if not don't click. SPOILERS!!!!!

"Ninja Turtles" poster gives us a new look at the Turtles!

Last night a new teaser poster titled "Ninja Turtles" made its way online, the poster debuted on Reddit which proves all the recent talk and image leaks of the Turtles are correct. The poster shows off Leo's bamboo armour, Raph's sunglasses, Mich's puka shell necklace and Donnie's scientific looking goggles/glasses. I like how they aren't all identical they have their own look, not just their accessories.

A HUGE thing that jumps out on the poster, is the top right "Ninja Turtles"which you guys will remember was Bay rumoured new title for the film when they planned on making the Turtles more alien opposed to mutant. Now it looks like this rumours is confirmed, again, let's hope that they will still avoid the alien approach.

A few people have been complaining that they have "human lips", my guess is so that when we see them speaking on screen it will have a more natural looking aesthetic opposed to how The Muppets look when they talk. Plus people have also said that the Halloween costume design looked too childish, I hope this poster puts that mind frame to bed, this poster and the other on set mock-ups clearly show a more dark/adult version of the Turtles that we are not used too.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot update

So here we go, we have a lot of pictures coming your way including pre CGI pictures of the Turtles themselves, a look at Fox as April plus maybe Will Arnett's character revealed? Some of you might see this as a SPOILER if so I advised leaving the page now, if not scroll down. We have also seen that the incredible actor William Fitchner has been cast in a pretty iconic role, he is set to play a character described as "iconic stature" no other information than that. From what I know an remember from the Comics and Cartoon is that a character like that can be the one and only Shredder!

So here we go, here are a few pictures of the Turtles pre-CGI. They are a little hard to look at if you love the Turtles but let's keep our hopes up an see if Bay makes these look good.

 The Turtles are looking pretty weird in the pictures, but they still look kinda cool. So here it is, have SuperheroHype worked out who that Will Arnett is going to be playing Vernon Fenwick, Aprils cameraman!?

Also we have got some set photos that show off Megan Fox as April, a casting decision I still can't accept she just isn't good enough for me.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles casts its Splinter

Deadline are reporting that former "Seinfeld" star Danny Woodburn has signed on to play Master Splinter in the Bay produced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles revival.

On Friday it was announced that Alan Ritchson was signing on to play Raphael in the upcoming "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot. According to reports by Deadline we now how the names of the other three actors that are joining the quartet. Jeremy Howard is set to star as Donatello, Pete Ploszek will play Leonardo and Noel Fisher is playing Michelangelo. The turtles are going to be captured using motion capture technology an will be joined on screen by Megan Fox who has already been casted in the role of April O'Neil. So here are our Turtles;

 Alan Ritchson is going to play Raphael. He has previously been in "Smallville" in which he featured as superhero Aquaman plus he was also in starred in "Blue Mountain State" before it was cancelled.

 Jeremy Howard is going to play Donatello. He has previously been in many TV Shows including "Scrubs", "Entourage" and "My Name Is Earl".

 Noel Fisher is set to play Michelangelo. He has previously been in "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2" as Vladimir and also was the voice of Toad in "X-Men Evolution" back in the early 2000's.

 Pete Ploszek is set to play Leonardo, my personal favourite Turtle. He has previously been in "Parks And Recreation" and "Shameless" the U.S version.

Megan Fox joins "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot

Rumours have been circulating for a few days now saying that production on the film will start this April, it now looks like the film has its first cast member. Michael Bay himself posted on his personal website  

"TMNT: We are bringing Megan Fox back into the family"

I found the news a little bit shocking if I'm honest, I thought she was kicked out of "Transformers" due to bad blood between her and Michael Bay. It seems like we we're all lied to, or maybe they have just put the past behind them an Bay has forgiven her.

Although Fox's role is unspecific right now, it is more than likely that she will play April O'Neil the reporter and friend to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Bay used the acronym "TMNT" does that mean he has dropped the title "Ninja Turtles"? He did get a lot of bad press from fans when he released information about the possible alien connection, has he had a change of heart an gone for a more "traditional" Turtles film? Let's all hope so!
