The new trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows has hit the web and I have to say, it looks like a fun, nostalgia-filled ride and I can't wait to see it.
Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo, and Raphael return to theaters this summer to battle bigger, badder villains, alongside April O’Neil (Megan Fox), Vern Fenwick (Will Arnett), and a newcomer: the hockey-masked vigilante Casey Jones (Stephen Amell). After supervillain Shredder escapes custody, he joins forces with mad scientist Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) and two dimwitted henchmen, Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (WWE Superstar Stephen “Sheamus” Farrelly), to unleash a diabolical plan to take over the world. As the Turtles prepare to take on Shredder and his new crew, they find themselves facing an even greater evil with similar intentions: the notorious Krang.
Check out the trailer below:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is the follow up to the 2014 film, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which followed the Turtles as they first emerge from the sewers to try and stop the evil Shedder and his Foot Clan from completing their diabolical plan and save the city of New York.
This film steps it up a notch, bringing in iconic characters from TMNT lore such as Bebop and Rocksteady, Krang, and Casey Jones, while seeing the return of Shredder and April O’Neil. In this trailer, we also get a better glimpse at, what I assume to be, the Technodrome, the semi-spherical tank-like mobile fortress used by Krang. Hopefully, they’ll be able to do justice to this amazing, behemoth of a base and the character that resides within.
One of my favorite parts of this entire trailer is the appearance and interaction of hockey stick-wielding vigilante, Casey Jones, played by Stephen Amell, of Arrow fame. He is, by far, the perfect choice to play this character, seeing as he already has experience playing a vigilante (check out Arrow if you aren’t already watching), and his comedic chops will lend themselves well to this role.
I really enjoyed the first film, as I felt it captured the essence of the original films while mixing it with a modern twist. The sequel has that same feel, but to a higher level, with an amazing amount of nostalgic ties with the new characters. I can't wait to see this film.
Directed by David Green, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows will arrive in theaters on June 3, 2016.
