New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Trailer – (Re)Meet the heroes

May 3, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Turtle Power is returning this summer with the release of New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, which follows up the unexpectedly successful live-action movie from a couple of years ago. Now a new trailer and another poster for the movie has arrived.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo, and Raphael return to cinemas this summer to battle bigger, badder villains, alongside April O’Neil (Megan Fox), Vern Fenwick (Will Arnett), and a newcomer: the hockey-masked vigilante Casey Jones (Stephen Amell). After supervillain Shredder escapes custody, he joins forces with mad scientist Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) and two dimwitted henchmen, Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (WWE Superstar Stephen “Sheamus” Farrelly), to unleash a diabolical plan to take over the world. As the Turtles prepare to take on Shredder and his new crew, they find themselves facing an even greater evil with similar intentions: the notorious Krang.’

The film will be in UK cinemas on May 30th. [Read more…]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Super Bowl Spot – Get your first look at Krang

February 8, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The heroes in a halfshell return to the live action arena this summer with Out Of The Shadows, and now the film’s Super Bowl spot has arrived, giving us our first glimpse of the villainous Krang. Take a look below.

This time around the turtles and Megan Fox’s April O’Neil are going to be joined by Arrow’s Stephen Amell as hockey-mask wearing vigilante Casey Jones. It has to be said that while the first movie was okay but a bit naff, this looks like it might be pretty cool.

Dave Green directs, with a June 2016 release date set. Watch the Super Bowl spot below.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows Trailer – Turtle power with added Stephen Amell

December 13, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The live-action do-over of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles proved much more successful at the box office than most people expected grossing just under $500 million at the worldwide box office. That ensured Paramount would want a sequel, which will will hit cinemas next summer.

This time around the turtles and Megan Fox’s April O’Neil are going to be joined by Arrow’s Stephen Amell as hockey-mask wearing vigilante Casey Jones. He makes his first appearance in the trailer, which you can take a look at below.

The initial trailer for the first movie was widely derided and made many think the entire thing was a bad idea that should never have been attempted, but this time around the first promo is actually quite fun. Dave Green directs, with a June 2016 release date set.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teaser – Leonardo and the gang team up with Megan Fox

March 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Gone are the days when Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were either cartoons in guys in Jim Henson Creature Show costumes. They’re getting a major effects upgrade for this new movie, which has just released its first trailer.

It’s looking pretty huge, although it hopefully hasn’t lost the humour.

Along with the first trailer comes the first official image, showing Megan Fox as April O’Neil (or at least April O’Neil after a visit to the Photoshop fairy). She’s certainly a bit different to Judith Hoag.

We’ve still got a while to ait for this one though, as the Jonathan Liebesman directed movie doesn’t hit US cinemas until August, while the UK currently has to wait until October (although if the buzz for this one grows, don’t be surprised if it moves up). [Read more…]

Will Arnett Joins Ninja Turtles In A Secret Role

April 3, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

With Paramount and Platinum Dunes’ Ninja Turtles reboot due to start shooting in a couple of weeks, there are a lot of roles to cast, now THR reports Will Arnett has signed on to play one of the leads. However, the actor’s role is being kept a secret.

If you’re wondering whether he’ll be Casey Jones, one of the Turtles’ human friends, it’s been confirmed that he won’t. That character will be in the film but is yet to be cast.

Megan Fox, who signed on last month, is playing April O’Neil, while the turtles – who will be rendered in motion-captured CGI – will be played by Alan Ritchson (Raphael) Pete Ploszek (Leonardo), Jeremy Howard (Donatello), and Noel Fisher (Michaelangelo). Other roles yet to be cast are Splinter (a sewer rat and the Turtles’ martial arts master) and the villainous Shredder. It’s possible Arnett could be either of these, possibly giving Splinter a more humorous touch.

Jonathan Liebesman (Battle: Los Angeles) is directing from a screenplay by André Nemec and Josh Appelbaum (Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol).

Ninja Turtles Gets Its Raphael, In The Form Of Hottie Alan Ritchson

March 23, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

With a June 2014 release date set, Platinum Dunes and Paramount Pictures really need to start moving on their new, live-action version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They’ve already cast Megan Fox, presumably as April O’Neil, and now they’ve found the first of the turtles, with Alan Ritchson set to play the sai-wielding Raphael, according to Deadline.

Unlike the 1990 original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the actors portraying the title characters will use state-of-the-art performance capture technology similar to Avatar, instead of wearing bulky turtle suits.

Jonathan Liebesman (Wrath of the Titans, Battle: Los Angeles) is directing from a screenplay by Josh Appelbaum, André Nemec, Matt Holloway, and Art Marcum. There’s no info been released on the plot.

Alan Ritchson plays the District 1 tribute Gloss in this fall’s The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. He also played Aquaman on The CW’s Smallville and Thad Castle on Blue Mountain State, and was the facial model for Ray Winstone’s lead character in the motion-capture Beowulf (so he has some experience with mo-cap technology).

It does seem a shame that Ritchson’s body is going to be covered in loads of CGI, as shown by the image below.

Megan Fox Reuniting With Michael Bay For Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

February 22, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

When Megan Fox was dumped from Transformers 3 amid some anger over comments she’d made about Michael Bay’s directing style that the helmer took badly, it didn’t look like they’d ever have anything to do with one another again. However they must have made up, as Michael Bay has revealed on his website that Fox has been cast in the live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie that he is producing.

There’s not much info from Bay, who merely writes, ‘TMNT: We Are Bringing Megan Fox Back Into The Family’

It isn’t known what role Megan Fox will play, but the speculation is that she will portray April O’Neill, the reporter who befriends the pizza-loving, be-shelled crime-fighters Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael, and Leonardo.

Jonathan Liebesman is directing from a screenplay by André Nemec and Josh Appelbaum. The movie is currently scheduled to be released May 16th, 2014, so expect more casting news soon.

This Is 40 Red Band Trailer – Paul Rudd tries to look up his own butt

December 11, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The sort-of sequel to Knocked Up, This Is 40, hits UK cinemas on February 14th, and to get us excited things are getting a little rude with a new red band trailer, where Paul Rudd tries to look up his butt and Megan Fox shows off her bra. It looks like it could be a lot of fun.

The film focuses on Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann’s married couple from Knocked Up, Pete and Debbie, taking a look at their lives five years later as they reach their 40s. That involves a lot of dealing with kids, negotiating sex and putting up with the idiosyncracies of life. The film also stars Jason Segel, Chris O’Dowd, Melissa McCarthy and Albert Brooks.

Megan Fox and Zoe Saldana Board Swindle

March 16, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A movie that’s happening purely because two young actresses want to work together perhaps isn’t the best reason to make a film, but it appears that’s what’s happening with Swindle, which Deadline reports has been snapped up by Paramount with Zoe Saldana and Megan Fox attached.

The plot of the action movie is being kept under wraps, but Swindle came out of a desire by the actresses, who are already friends, to do a movie together. Moneyball producer Michael De Luca will produce the project with the help of Saldana & Fox, working from a script by Enzo Mileti and Scott Wilson.

This project is still in early development and no director is attached.

The Dictator Trailer – Sacha Baron Cohen oppresses the populace

December 15, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Sacha Baron Cohen is back next summer as The Dictator, and now the first trailer is here, which is light on plot but big on star cameos and showing off the silliness. The film is ‘The heroic story of a dictator who risks his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed’. Bizarrely, it’s partly based on a book by Saddam Hussein! It’s due out May 18th, 2012, but watch the trailer below.
