More Details On The Turtles Being Aliens In The New TMNT Movie


The other day the whole interent was horrified to hear that Michael Bay – who’s producing the project – was planning on making the Turtles aliens in an upcoming reboot (slated for Christmas 2013 directed by Jonathan Liebesman) of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It’s ridiculous, it’s even in the name. Teenage. MUTANT. Ninja. Turtles. Anyway, First Showing has been able to shed more light on the situation.

Apparently, the Turtles will be inter-dimensional beings. When I read this, I immediately thought Indiana Jones 4  but the article went on to state that they’re from a different dimension, and the only reason this is happening is because long time Turtles-enemy Krang will be the villain, or one of the villains if Shredder is added.

Even if this is true, it doesn’t change my opinion on this. I’ll wait for more details on the project (cast etc), but don’t be surprised if one Bay picks a model from his large collection to play April O’ Neill and Shia Labeouf to play Casey Jones, and those two to take centre stage in the movie.
