Our First Look At Laura Linney On The TMNT 2 Set Reveals Who She's Playing

Not her character's name, but her profession at least! The Academy Award nominated actress was spotted on the set of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sequel along with Megan Fox, Stephen Amell, Will Arnett, and the Turtles boys themselves. Is she playing someone from TMNT canon?

I think it's safe to say from looking at these pics, Laura Linney is playing a member of New York's finest in the movie, and will probably be tasked with tracking down the awesome foursome and bringing them to justice. Are there any notable female cops in TMNT lore? I'm a fan of the old comics but I couldn't tell you. Anyway, here she is on set along with Megan Fox as April O'Neil, Will Arnett as Vern Fenwick, and Stephen Amell as Casey Jones.

New turn: Laura, whose honors include two Golden Globes, four Emmy awards and three Tony nominations, three Tony nods, seems to be making a rather comical departure from her dramatic acting resume

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 is directed by Dave Green (Earth to Echo) with a script by Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec (Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol). Fox and Amell will be joined by Tyler Perry as Baxter Stockman, Will Arnett as Vern Fenwick, Brian Tee as Shredder, and model Alessandra Ambrosio as herself. Laura Linney also has an undisclosed role.

That actually makes for a quite confusing history there, too. Alan Ritchson played Aquaman on Smallville while Justin Hartley was cast to play Aquaman in a different series for The CW...the same guy who played as Green Arrow which of course Amell is playing now. I wonder what they think about DC television then and now, lol.

But, hopefully Stephen and Alan have these little talks....perhaps that could help the chemistry between Casey Jones and Raphael on screen.

So since the first movie basically stole the plot from TASM. I'm guessing that this one will steal the plot from TASM2, bomb, and then they will make an agreement to include the Ninja Turtles in the MCU.

I wish this movie wasn't being made so we could actually get a good TMNT movie. This movie is going to be a load of horse shit.

I was really hoping they would improve in this sequel but it seems like it won't...Sigh. I actually enjoyed the first but this feels like it has the potential to be worse imo.

@blackstar25 how there's nothing that's indicative of the films quality? Just pictures of people on set.

@suitekid True, but it just looks like there will be more new human characters even tho we don't really need them.

Calling it now. She's a villain, a human villain who will mostly interact with April and Vern like Eric Sachs did in the first movie.

@blackstar25 I will agree that it looks a bit like human overload.
