TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2 trailer introduces Casey Jones, Bebop, and Rocksteady

First Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows trailer

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are back, and this time around they’re joined by a few more familiar characters. Get a good look at the new Casey Jones, Bebop, and Rocksteady in the first trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows.

Watch the trailer and check out two wanted posters for Bebop and Rocksteady after the jump.

It’s still weird to think of Johnny Knoxville voicing Leonardo, and the Michael Bay explosions are here to let us know he’s still involved in some way, but overall the sequel looks like it’s trying to have fun with characters fans know and love. “Hey, it’s got Bebop and Rocksteady” is probably enough to draw in skeptics, so the movie’s got that going for it out of the gate. What surprised me most was seeing Dave Green‘s name attached as director. Green joins the ranks of smaller film directors like Colin Trevorrow (Safety Not Guaranteed to Jurassic World) and Josh Trank (Chronicle to Fantastic Four) who have been given big projects, and it’ll be interesting to see how he does making the jump from his previous film Earth to Echo to a tentpole blockbuster like TMNT 2.

No official plot synopsis has been released yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we get into more mutagen ooze territory. Tyler Perry’s character Baxter Stockman most likely gets mixed up in experimentations and could even be the movie’s main villain. Time will tell how this one plays out, but I’m at least curious to see what they do with Casey Jones and a few new baddies.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows stars Megan Fox, Will Arnett, Alessandra Ambrosio (as Vernon/Arnett’s girlfriend, go figure), Johnny Knoxville, Alan Ritchson, Laura Linney, Tony Shalhoub, Stephen Amell, William Fichtner, Jeremy Howard, Brian Tee, Noel Fisher, Jane Wu, and Tyler Perry. The movie hits theaters June 3, 2016.
