RIP Every Last Ounce of Dignity Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Had to Its Name
Megan Fox Joins 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'
After pushing production to do more work on the script, Paramount's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot looks back on track as the studio has tapped Megan Fox to star as April O'Neil.
Jonathan Liebesman will direct with Michael Bay producing through his Platinum Dunes banner. Michael Bay tweeted the news on his blog.
Original 1984 Mirage Studios' comicbook "TMNT" centered on four turtles who are turned humanoid through contact with radioactive slime, and trained in martial arts by their humanoid rat master. Bay stirred controversy with fans of the comicbook-based franchise when he said the reimagined series would have alien elements.
The reason for the original delay was because the filmmakers and studio felt they wouldn't be ready for a October 2012 shoot date.
Prior to the holidays, the studio began meeting with actresses such as Jane Levy, Anna Kendrick and Elizabeth Olsen and the studio will now aim to find its male lead.
The studio, Bay and Fox have a relationship going back to when the two worked together on the first two "Transformer" films.
Michael Bay is not a man
HE IS A MONSTER
