Hey guys happy holidays and happy new year. I'm back to show you my fan cast for the Teenage mutant ninja turtles.As a little kid I loved the turtles movies(and yes that includes the 3rd one).As I got older I discovered the gritty and much more violent version of the turtles and thought that would make an amazing movie.So here are my choices for the cast of Teenage Mutant ninja turtles.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES

DIRECTOR:DAVID FINCHER

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:ZODIAC,FIGHT CLUB,GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO


DAVID FINCHER WOULD BE A PERFECT HIS ABILITY TO DIRECT DARK AND TWISTED SCENES AND MOMENTS WHILE BRINGING IN A SHOT OF ACTION AND HEART.WHICH IS WHAT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS MOVIE NEEDS TO BE GREAT.

LEONARDO:MICHAEL ANGARANO

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:HAYWIRE,SKY HIGH,SNOW ANGELS

A COMICBOOKMOVIE FAVORITE AND A GREAT ACTOR.I CHOSE HIM BECAUSE HAS A GOOD VOICE FOR A LEADER BUT STILL SOUNDS INNOCENT ENOUGH TO BE A TEENAGER.

RAPHAEL:RAY LIOTTA

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:GOODFELLAS AND WILD HOGS

THIS WAS THE HARDEST PART TO CAST OUT OF EVERYONE.I LOOKED THROUGH MANY PEOPLE AND FINALLY SETTLED ONE THE GREAT RAY LIOTTA. NOW A KNOW HE HASN'T DONE ANYTHING GREAT MASTERPIECES LATELY BUT THE GUY CAN ACT.ALSO HE CAN PULL OFF THE TOUGH GUY ACT AND BROOKLYN ACCENT NEEDED FOR THE BAD ASS RALPH.

DONATELLO:ERIC CHRISTIAN OLSEN

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:NCIS LOS ANGELES AND THE THING

OSLEN IS REALLY GOOD IN NCIS AND WAS OK IN THE THING, BUT WHAT REALLY DREW ME TO HIM WAS HIS VOICE.I FELT LIKE IT HAD THE RIGHT SOUND THAT WAS CALM,PLAYFUL,AND SMART JUST LIKE DONNIE IS.

MICHELANGELO:GREG CIPES

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES(2012 TV SHOW),TEEN TITANS

I CHOSE THIS GUY FOR MIKEY BEFORE THE TMNT SHOW EVEN STARTED.EVER SINCE TEEN TITANS I LIKED HOW HE SOUNDED LAID BACK AND LIKE HE HAD NO WORRIES.
THAT CARE FREE JOKESTER QUALITY IS THE DEFINITION FOR MIKEY.

APRIL O'NEIL:NINA DOBREV

WORK THAT EARNED HER THE PART:THE PERKS OF BEING A WALL FLOWER,DEGRASSI,AND VAMPIRE DIARIES

THIS GIRL IS STUNNING AND THAT IS ALREADY A PLUS IN HER FAVOR.ALSO SHE CAN ACT PRETTY WELL AND I THINK SHE IS A GREAT ORIGINAL PICK FOR THE BEAUTIFUL APRIL.

SPLINTER:HOON LEE

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES(2012 TV SERIES)

FROM THE START I WAS SKEPTICAL OF THE NEW TMNT SERIES BUT WHEN I HEARD LEE AS SLINTER I KNEW EVERYTHING WAS GOING TO BE OK.HIS VOICE HAS THE STRONG AND WISE QUALITY OF A MASTER MIXED WITH THE SOFT CARING QUALITY OF A FATHER, AND IT'S GREAT.

CASEY JONES:JAMES FRANCO

WORK THAT EARNED HIM THE PART:SPIDER-MAN SERIES,127 HOURS,THE RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES

A WHILE AGO I WAS READING A TMNT FAN CAST AND SAW FRANCO PICKED FOR THIS PART AND AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE WORST PICK EVER.BUT THEN I THOUGHT FOR A MOMENT REALIZED FRANCO WAS A BRILLIANT CHOICE. NO STRANGER TO ACTION FRANCO WOULD BRING SOME GOOD NEW CHARACTERISTICS TO CASEY AND COULD REALLY SHINE AS THIS CHARACTER.

KRANG:DEE BRADLEY BAKER

WORK THAT GOT HIM THE PART:BEN 10,VARIOUS VOICE WORK

I CHOSE BAKER BECAUSE HE IS AN ACCOMPLISHED VOICE ACTOR AND CAN BASICALLY DO ANY VOICE.

KARAI:KRISTIN KRUEK

WORK THAT GOT HER THE PART:SMALLVILLE AND THE LEGEND OF CHUN-LI

SHE IS BEAUTIFUL,AND IN THIS ROLE SHE COULD KICK ASS. I LOVE THE IDEA OF A STRONG BUT BEAUTIFUL CHARACTER AND A WORTHY ADVERSARY FOR THE TURTLES.

SHREDDER:HIROYUKI SANADA

WORK THAT GOT HIM THE PART:LOST,RUSH HOUR 3,THE LAST SAMURAI

THIS GUY WAS PRETTY EVIL IN RUSH HOUR AND HAD SOME NICE MOMENTS IN THE LAST SAMURAI SO HE SHOULD BRING SOMETHING GOOD AS SHREDDER

OTHER CHARACTERS

THE FOOT CLAN


THE PURPLE DRAGON


KEVIN LAIRD:DONALD GLOVER

I MADE THIS NEW CHARACTER BECAUSE I WANT THIS MOVIE TO BE REALLY DARK AND GRITTY AND I NEEDED MORE THAN MIKEY TO ADD SOME COMIC RELIEF.ALSO,THIS WOULD BE A LITTLE NOD TO INTERNET FANS WHO WANTED HIM AS DONATELLO.

KLUNK(MICHELANGELO'S CAT)

I WANTED IN MIKEY'S CAT AS A NOD TO THE COMICS AND IT WOULD BE A REALLY FUNNY DYNAMIC BETWEEN THE TWO.

SLASH(RAPHAEL'S TURTLE)

AS ANOTHER NOD TO THE COMICS AND THE NEW TV SHOW.I COMBINED THE CHARACTER SLASH AND SPIKE SO RALPH CAN HAVE A CLOSE FRIEND TO TALK TO.ALSO MAYBE LATER IN THE SERIES SLASH COULD TURN INTO THE DANGEROUS MUTANT FROM THE COMICS.


IMPORTANT IDEAS

-THE MOVIE SHOULD BE GRITTY AND DARK MIXED WITH COMEDY

-APRIL O'NEIL SHOULD BE A NEW COLLEGE GRADUATE TRYING TO MAKE A NAME FOR HERSELF AS A NEWS REPORTER WITH HER CAMERAMAN AND BEST FRIEND KEVIN.

-THE PURPLE DRAGONS AND THE FOOT CLAN SHOULD BE IN A GANG WAR AND THE TURTLES AND APRIL GET CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE.

-HAMATO YOSHI SHOULD TURN INTO SPLINTER INSTEAD OF SPLINTER BEING THE PET.

-CASEY JONES SHOULD BE AN EX MEMBER OF THE PURPLE DRAGONS.

-THE TURTLES SHOULD BE PUPPET/COSTUMES LIKE THE OLD MOVIES BUT ADD LITTLE CGI TO MAKE THEM LOOK MORE REALISTIC.

-KARAI SHOULD BE SHREDDER'S DAUGHTER.

-KARAI SHOULD BE THE LEADER THE FOOT AND SHREDDER IS IN THE SHADOWS UNTIL THE BIG FIGHT AT THE END.

-FINALLY, AT THE END THE PURPLE DRAGON SHOULD LOSE THE WAR AND SHREDDER MEETS WITH KRANG TO GET READY FOR THEIR WORLD DOMINATION.

THANKS FOR READING AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, the caps lock and the lack of any paragraph break are pretty disturbing, to be honest! Nonetheless, this is nice. Great cast all around, foremost with the likes of Ray Liotta, which is quite a creative pick, and I really like your Shredder pick. Just one question, though: Do you want the turtles to be portrayed with motion capture, or something else?

Great stuff! Why not CGI?

You said Wild Hogs earned Ray Liotta the part as Raphael. No, just no. Wild Hogs may have been the movie ever made. And no to James Franco, he's terrible.

Other than those blunders, this is pretty good.

I like the cast...kinda, the big thing that i don't like is kinda nitpicky. I don't think that the foot clan should start off in a gang war, then try to take over the world. Lets take baby steps.

No. Cast smells of shit.

@jolt17 and the firstavenger97 I would like the turtles to be portrayed with the costumes like in the old movies but add CGI at the end to enhance them and make them more realistic.

@bazinga i chose wild hogs because i wanted to show he doesn't take himself to seriously and would take a role in even the shittiest of movies.

my cast would be
Andrew Garfield as Leonardo
Alex Pettyfer as Raphiel
Anton Yelchin as Michaelangillo
Garret Hedlund as Donetello
Sonny Chiba as Splinter
Scarlett Johanson as April
James Fraco as Casey Jones
Ken Watanabie as Shredder

To add to what Bazinga said, Wild Hogs was incredibly awful and Liotta has much better work. He seems pretty old compared to the rest even to voice, but whatever. He's great. Fran Kranz or someone would be a good Mikey since your pick doesn't really fit with the rest. Cool stuff though, I mean you put Donald Glover in it so I'm automatically a fan. Nina as April is very nice too. Calm iton the caps however.

@kakarot wow that's a really good idea with Fran Kranz forgot all about him.Thanks for the imput

@nightcrawler I saw that but all CGI wouldn't be bad either.

this is a pretty good cast the only ones I don't like are April and Casey.

I like Nina Dobrev but I would cast Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

No one will ever be as awesome a Casey Jones as Elias Koteas, but I think Sam Witwer would be a great choice.

@lewis25 thanks for the ideas both of those are great but very unoriginal and my main focus of these are to try and pick different people
