Meet Casey Jones, Bebop, and Rocksteady in the new teaser trailer for TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: OUT OF THE SHADOWS:
I did not get to interview any of the Ninja Turtles, but I did see where they relaxed between takes:
Also returning for the sequel is Megan Fox (“TRANSFORMERS”) as April O’Neil, Will Arnett (“Arrested Development”) as Vernon Fenwick and the Turtles: Alan Ritchson as Raphael, Noel Fisher as Michelangelo, Pete Ploszek at Leonardo, and Jeremy Howard as Donatello. Rounding out the cast is Stephen Amell (“Arrow,”) as Casey Jones, Tyler Perry (“GONE GIRL”, the “MADEA” franchise) as Baxter Stockman, Academy Award nominated actress Laura Linney (“The Big C”, “LOVE ACTUALLY”) as Chief Rebecca Vincent, Brian Tee (“JURASSIC WORLD”) as Shredder, WWE World Heavy Weight Champion Stephen “Sheamus” Farrelly as Rocksteady and Gary Anthony Williams (“THE INTERNSHIP”) as Bebop.
And I was on set! I met Stephen Amell and Megan Fox! We watched them filming a scene with Laura Linney, and it was wonderful! I loved the first movie so much I went back a second time because my son could not go to the preview and I knew he had to see the latest Turtle movie! My son and my spouse loved it as much as me, the action was non-stop and fantastic!
We interviewed Stephen and Megan right on the sound stage in Queens, NY. It was incredible. Everyone agreed that Stephen Amell was the first choice for Casey Jones and the scheduling was such that the Turtles movie needed him on set the day after Arrow stopped filming last season. Timing was perfect and it was a thrill, I have been a fan since the first episode of Arrow, I cannot wait to see Mr. Amell as Casey Jones:
And what a perfect fit, Mr. Amell was a hockey player in Canada, and Casey Jones is a hockey player!
And then we talked to Megan Fox! I am a huge fan of her work, I told her I was so thrilled to see her in this series after loving her in the Transformers franchise.
What a “zen” actress Megan is! She was very calm and spiritual, I cannot wait to see her in the new installment in this excellent action packed franchise!
There will be more pictures, I was on set in a certain TMNT mobile, but I am embargoed from discussing that any further!

My grandsons love the Turtles and adore the vintage toys I picked up for them.
I saw all your pictures, and we finally went to the movie. It was great. Made me feel a little bit back in the 80″s. So glad they are bringing back old series to the big screen where they can be enjoyed all over again.
