It’s Official: Jonathan Liebesman to Direct TMNT movie, set for release Christmas 2013

Straight from Paramount Pictures: The director that brought you big action films like Battle: Los Angeles and the upcoming film Wrath of the Titans will be directing our newest big screen treatment of TMNT. It’s going to be a live action reboot – as far as the turtles themselves, rampant online speculation is that it’s going to be motion-captured much like the monkeys in Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

Considering the advancement of technology over the past two decades, along with a script courtesy of the same minds that wrote Mission Impossible -Ghost Protocol, we could be in store for some of the best live action since the first movie. Now with a Script and a Director, we should hopefully get getting on the fast track to seeing some actual production.

More to Come as it develops!

…Now if we could just find out who’s going to work on the soundtrack.

  1. Let’s hope that Michael Bay has as little input as possible. I think we all know how badly he Bastardized the Transformers films. Got my fingers crossed on this one.

  2. I know a lot of people weren’t happy with the transformers movies. I enjoyed them, personally – I’m only just getting into them though, so I don’t know the whole backstory.

    However… the score written for the First movie was fantastic. Listen to the score ‘Optimus’… Steve Jablonsky did some amazing things, and I wouldn’t mind hearing what he could come up with.
