With the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot set to hit theaters this weekend the cast is on the stump including Megan Fox who plays Journalist April O'Neil in the pic. She has a message for all of the haters out there...Hide the children--Here's what she told Cinema Blend:
"Let me tell you something about those people. How much money did Transformers 4 make? Exactly. Those people can complain - they all go to the theater. They’re gonna love it - and if they don’t love it, they can f--k off, and that’s the end of that."
Fox’s casting early last year also drew criticism, a lot of which goes back to her association with Transformers and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen helmer .Michael Bay. Even 'Turtles' co-creator Peter Laird had announced that he wasn't a fan of the choice for April
Jeremy Howard will play Donatello Noel Fisher will play Michelangelo and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire co-star Alan Ritchson plays Raphael Johnny Knoxville will voice the role of Leonardo, with Tony Shalhoub voicing the role of wise rat Master Splinter--the father figure to the shelled heroes.
During production, Pete Ploszek played Leonardo and Danny Woodburn played Splinter in mo-cap suits--the studio was always open to changing the voice component of the film so that is what happened with 2 characters.
Will Arnett is tapped to play Casey Jones opposite fellow live action actor William Fichtner (The Dark Knight, Drive Angry) plays TMNT nemesis Shredder
The film was set to be live-action but then it was decided that the turtles would be brought to life using motion capture/CGI like 2011's "Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes".
Jonathan Liebesman directed from a script by Kevin Eastman, Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec.
Brad Fuller Andrew Form, Galen Walker and Scott Mednick would co-produce with Michael Bay.
Originally due for release on June 6th 2014, the movie is now slated to arrive in theaters on August 8th.
Bay has denied rumors that the reshoots on the film are extensive.--meaning a potential 2nd delay.
