I'm not sure I understand the point of this casting. If he's just going to do the voice, why not just use the cast from the TV show or even the voice cast from the last movie? What's the point of casting a "heartthrob" in a role where you won't see any part of him?
Also, have they told us how they're doing this, whether it's stunt guys in suits or CGI?
Speaking of the last movie, Sarah Michelle Gellar would be a better choice for April than Megan Fox, imo.Last edited by BrotherUnitNo_4; 03-22-2013 at 10:22 AM.

His name I 'spose even though, true fully, even though I love the HG series I've never heard of him.

I love him! He's on Blue Mountain State as the popular jock Thad! I think he would be a good addition but not as Ralphael maybe as a supporting character of the turtles.

I'm not going to jump on the "THIS IS GONNA BE HORRIBLE!!!!" train, but I will say the two cast members though far don't instill a ton of faith...Megan Fox is certainly not known for her acting, and this guy was about as wooden as they come as Aquaman on Smallville.

You noticed I didn't give him credit on that. Alan is better playing a antagonist or a bad boy. Just Like Blue Mountain State. Originally Posted by Flinkman

That whole quote about "Hitting the reset button." Isn't that from CBR`s recent interview with Kevin Eastman concerning IDW, not the movie?

The thing is, do we really need a reboot on this? Originally Posted by pingclang

$h1+ choice. He'd make a better Casey Jones. So many better actors that could voice Raph. I thought Nolan North from the CGI movie was perfect. But that would make WAY too much sense for Michael Bay. I've already mourned this movie. This is going to end up like Bob Hoskins Mario Bros movie.
