Rapper and sometime actor Scott "Kid Cudi" Mescudi posted the following image (possible concept design sketch?) to his Tumblr..
He also added this..
An original one of a kind sketch of a unknown Ninja Turtle by one half of the creators, Kevin Eastman. A gift given to me by my homies Andrew Form and Brad Fuller over at Platinum Dunes. Hint hint mane
So at the very least Cudi has met with the studio regarding the movie, and even if he isn't playing/voicing one of the Turtles themselves, it certainly sounds like he is involved in some capacity. He also tweeted -
"To everyone with doubts & concerns about the new TMNT reboot, trust me, there is NOTHING to worry about. Trust. Everyone will be pleased!". But of course that doesn't necessarily mean that the above image has any bearing on what the Turtles will look like in the movie, it might just be a cool sketch done for Cudi by Eastman. Still, you never know, certainly looks quite "alien" to me. What do you guys think?
