Brian Tee, star of THE WOLVERINE and this summer’s tentpole JURASSIC WORLD, has been cast in the role of Shredder in TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2, which is just about to kick off shooting.
Tee will replace Tohoru Masamune (INCEPTION) in the Paramount/ Nickelodeon sequel to last year’s runaway $500 million hit. Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec are writing the script for the sequel with Michael Bay once again producing through his Platinum Dunes production company, and newcomer to the franchise David Green (EARTH TO ECHO) directing.
Megan Fox (April O’Neil), Will Arnett (Vern Fenwick), Stephen Amell (Casey Jones) and Tyler Perry (Baxter Stockman) are also amongst the film’s cast.
The film is set for release on 3rd June, 2016.
