I think her intelligence probably intimidated Bay. He prefers bimbos he can push around.

Oh wow - we have a lot of Michael Bay fans on GAF. Didn't expect this much chatter about the starlet in his next movie.

This is what it would look like.
This hurts my soul.

It doesn't matter who plays in it when we already know it's going to be a bad movie. Anna Kendrick as April wouldn't have saved the film.

I know right? Lame backpack, ugly shorts, socks that are too tall so he scrunches them down, balding-but-doesn't-have-the-sense-to-shave-it-clean, and what is likely a shitty gold-plated wrist watch. I'm surprised the face of the watch isn't facing inwards.
Fixed it, jumped the gun on that one. In terms of his productions I liked The Rock, that's about it. I think April was shown pretty sparingly in the old cartoons. With this news, I doubt that will be the case in the movie.

I forgot all about this project.
Anyway, lol, this move pretty much tells you exactly where they're going with this movie.

Nope, it's shooting in April.

Yeah, this is bad news. But why do people keep pretending Anna Kendrick is a good actress? Elizabeth Olsen is the best out of those three shortlisted.

I think it was put on hold while they worked on the script to make it less expensive. It definitely seemed like it'd be costly. There was a lot of turtles like spinning around in their shells knocking trucks off roads and crazy acrobatics like that, some dimension jumping shit

I wouldn't mind shooting in April either.
She's been fine in the movies I've seen. I don't think this movie requires really good actors and actresses just ones who fit. And yeah Anna fits the teenage girl role great...if they are going for a teenage April.
This will just be...wait what the fuck was Megan Fox's name in Transformers? How forgettable.
Anna Kendrick > Alice Eve
Megan Fox probably did something special to win back Bay's approval.

Same acting ability, only Alice Eve is about 1000x more fuckable.

It's funny that you guys are asking, "Why??" as though it isn't rhetorical.

How would you ever know?
I don't know what that is and I'm not sure I want to know.
How would you ever know?
She did do some topless sex scenes so she automatically wins.
oh right I heard about that.
That's a hell of a moose knuckle.i'd rather april oneil
Jane Levy from the ABC show Suburgatory was also in the running according to Variety. I think she would've been the best choice.
wow
She's a master of the five knuckle shuffle. True story.

I thought this movie wasn't happening anymore? At the very least it's having some sort of production issues that would hopefully mean it never gets made.
it came back unfortunately.
They already fixed the issues. This project is full steam ahead.
Fuck that noise. I want this shit.
You do? I want a new TMNT live action movie but I am a bit soured by that script.
I can't imagine how the new turtles will look.
There is no confirmation stating that is the script they are moving forward on. In any case, I rather have a TMNT film property than not.
I thought he fucked her.
