The New Trailer For TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: OUT OF THE SHADOWS Goes Topside!

Paramount Pictures is officially in the business of impressing as many Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans as much as possible in the wake of their 2014 hit reboot from helmer Jonathan Liebesman. Thus, with David Green at the helm, the upcoming sequel, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows is drawing more and more from its familiar roots with characters like Bebop and Rocksteady along with actor Brian Tee cast to bring back Shredder from the first film. You also get the talking brain-alien named Krang as seen in previous trailers and promos opposite the newly added Stephen Amell as streetside outlaw Casey Jones among our halfshell heroes, which is a plus for anyone fond of the franchise as a whole. However, these things are all left to interpretation; Not everyone is a fan of reboots and remakes and so this likely won’t sit well with all moviegoers at […]

I feel good. Why? Because I like posters, and Paramount Pictures has officially debuted a quartet of character posters and cinemagraphs for the upcoming action sequel, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out Of The Shadows. With director Dave Green, we’re also getting some new faces added to the mix, including characters like outlaw Casey Jones (Stephen Amell), Dr. Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) along with the villanous Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (Sheamus) and the emergence of a talking stomach brain named Krang, opening a whole new dimension to the live action CG hybrid that fans have been clammoring for for almost three decades. The results speak for themselves so far with our first teaser out as of a few months ago and the TV spots that have struck since then, and so there’s a lot that this film stands to gain in its current state unless proper critiques and […]

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2: OUT OF THE SHADOWS Emerges With An Early Trailer

Lee B. Golden III

What a difference a year and a half makes! Last year’s rollout of a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot drew a few concerns even though it made bank with more than $493 million dollars, leaving plenty of room for a sequel. As such, a sequel is what we get with the new movie: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out Of The Shadows, featuring our four turtles back in action along with Master Splinter, and actress Megan Fox as today’s “April O’Neil” for millenials. And yes, we also get Stephen Amell, out of the televised Arrow costume and armored up with urbanized sports gear as the puck-cracking Casey Jones as well as a new iteration of the Shredder played by Brian Tee, and villain favorites Bebop and Rocksteady sizing up the competition for what promises to be yet another CG-laden epic for the fans, whether purists like it or not.

No Bows And Arrows For Amell's 'Jones' In A New TMNT 2 Set Pic!

Lee B. Golden III

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 comes out next year with David Green at the helm, and for what its worth, at least the fans have something to look forward to. The first film grossed well over $480 million dollars under Clash Of The Titans helmer Jonathan Libesman directing, so you can imagine there’s plenty of reason to move forward with a sequel that will further expand the franchise in a new age of fandom. Sure, its an age everyone has, and will always have an opinion on, and you can count on there being plenty, especially if you were waiting to see Arrow star, actor Stephen Amell as Turtles’ ally, the sportsgear-wielding masked vigilante Casey Jones with a full head of hair. Nope, not the case here, but this is the Casey we’re getting, so there’s that. There’s plenty to hope for though here. I’ve never seen Earth To Echo, […]

Monday may have brought the laughs with actor Brian Tee staking his claim in a new Funny Or Die video made in part with Be Funny Studios. As of this week, however, he’ll be bringing retribution as the iconic villiain, The Shredder in Earth To Echo helmer David Green‘s upcoming sequel installment, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2. Tee‘s career is highlight by quite a few accomplishments, including Mortal Kombat Legacy 2 and the South Korean action hit, No Tears For The Dead, so it’s nice to see him leap aboard this latest continuance succeeding last year’s successful first from director Jonathan Liebesman. Variety states the actor’s addition to the cast following actor Masamune Tohoru’s performance in the same role last year, wherein the former will join returning cast members Megan Fox and Will Arnett as reporters April O’Neil and Vernon Fenwick, along with Arrow television series star Stephen Amell as […]
