The reviews may be mixed, but director Jonathan Liebesman‘s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was still a box office success last month while neck-and-neck with Guardians Of The Galaxy. As such, producer Michael Bay is now spearheading production of the sequel for its June 3, 2016 release, with some possible additional laurels that could invite other characters from the original TV series.
In the meantime, the current film is getting an IMAX theatrical one-week re-run beginning September 12.

The city needs heroes. Darkness has settled over New York City as Shredder and his evil Foot Clan have an iron grip on everything from the police to the politicians. The future is grim until four unlikely outcast brothers rise from the sewers and discover their destiny as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The Turtles must work with fearless reporter April O’Neil (Megan Fox) and her wise-cracking cameraman Vern Fenwick (Will Arnett) to save the city and unravel Shredder’s diabolical plan. Based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters created by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman with a screenplay by Josh Appelbaum & André Nemec and Evan Daugherty, producer Michael Bay (the blockbuster Transformers franchise) and director Jonathan Liebesman (Wrath of the Titans) bring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the popular franchise that has captivated audiences of all ages for decades, into the 21st century.
The IMAX release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of An IMAX 3D Experience® with proprietary IMAX DMR® (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX’s customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.
