The live-action "Ninja Turtles" reboot at Paramount has been pushed back by two months.
Originally due for release on June 6th 2014, the movie is now slated to arrive in theaters on August 8th.
The move provides distance from the glut of tentpoles--including Michael Bay's "Tra nsformers 4." which is currently set to bow on Friday June 27th 2014 but will likely be moved up to Wednesday June 25th.
Pete Ploszek will play Leonardo, Jeremy Howard will play Donatello Noel Fisher will play Michelangelo and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire co-star Alan Ritchson plays Raphael These 4 young men will provide the motion capture essence and vocals for the heroes in the half shell. Danny Woodburn will play the mo-cap role of wise rat Master Splinter--the father figure to the shelled heroes
Will Arnett is tapped to play Casey Jones opposite fellow live action actor Megan Fox as April O'Neil 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 is directing from a script by Kevin Eastman, Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec.
Brad Fuller Andrew Form, Galen Walker and Scott Mednick would co-produce with Bay.
