For over a year, Jonathan Liebesman’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot was the source of constant scrutiny from Shell Heads around the globe. The announcement of Transformers director Michael Bay as producer was only the first in a steady stream of divisive choices – followed by rumored changes to the turtles’ origin story as well as the casting of Megan Fox as April O’Neil.
Following reports that Liebesman is not returning for the Ninja Turtles sequel, with Earth to Echo helmer Dave Green in talks to direct, Brazilian entertainment outlet Omelete has confirmed that Bebop and Rocksteady will appear in TMNT 2 – thanks to an interview with producers Brad Fuller and Andrew Form:
“We can say that Bebop and Rocksteady are in the film, and Casey Jones is a character that we love and we’re trying to fit him in as well.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time that we’ve heard Fuller and Form indicate that they wanted to explore Bebop and Rocksteady (as well as Casey Jones) in a TMNT sequel. Here’s what the producers, along with Liebesman, told us back at SDCC 2014 – a month before the reboot had even been released:
Form: We’re just finishing the movie but we all wish that we could put everything into the movie. We all have other characters that we wish we could have had in this movie.
Liebesman: Casey Jones.
Form: Casey Jones. Bebop and Rocksteady. We had those conversations throughout development of this movie but we’re launching this movie now in two weeks. Hopefully everybody feels the same way we do [about it]. We love them [Bebop and Rocksteady].

I remember the concept artwork that dropped a few months ago

Hopefully sequel has better fight scenes. would prefer is these two can give turtles a run for their money fight wise instead of being the comic reliefs they were in 80s toon

Dope but makes no sense in Bays universe being that the turtles are so big with superstrength that they should have no problem man handling them.
They already ? up and should reboot it to make them regular size and replace Meagan Fox with a true likeable character. The origins is all ? up, nvm ? this movie. -
I remember the old cartoon where the first episode they were bad ? and then the next they turned them into bumbling idiots. Hopefully the movie make them serious adversaries
-
I agree, more fight scenes....the first movie was okay, but it needed more fight scenes with the turtles (? that snow chase from the Foot ? ).
and I'm glad to see Bebop and Rocksteady finally get some shine -
I'm down for that, I still haven't seen the other one though.

In my opinion they should have gone with the utrom storyline in the first film. I hated shredder being a hollow character and splinter being a lab rat. I would've gone with splinter and shredder being adopted brothers in Japan and oroko comes into contact with a crashed stranded utrom which inhabits his body causing him to become evil and super strong and durable (my version utroms can be parasitic) shredder utrom turns on hamato and takes over the foot and kills hamatos and his adopted families clan leaving splinter sole survivor. He flees to NY and lives homeless in the sewers then comes in to contact with the mutagen which originated from the utrom crash.
Sachs works for shredder who is secretly working to contact the mothership for an invasion (instead of the poison in the roof top its a beacon) the turtles attempt to stop it and battle shredder ..he falls from the roof and it appears they were victorious till you see the mother ship revieve the transmission at the end. Shredded survives the fall at the very end and you see the utrom through his wound.

Nah I'd rather have one krang screw that utrom hive ? .

One thing I hated about TMNT, and it's really a small gripe....The turtles were calling Splinter "Dad".

Idk man. Rocksteady and Bebop look weird
-
The turtles look smaller in this one. Look around the same height as Casey jones
-
Ain't even gonna lie. This don't look too bad. Simple formula. No overpowered turtles. Asian roots and multi cultured. My only vice is April Oneil and Splinters origins but I'll overlook that.
-
I might look for the cam torrent and give it a check.

Looks better than the first one honestly. -
who asked for this
-
just like the first one, i'm gonna rock with it. Looks better than the first one too.
