Producer Michael Bay has released a photo giving us our first look at Arrow star Stephen Amell as vigilante Casey Jones in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2. The mask he's wearing seems to have all the elements of what we've seen in the comics, but it also has its own exaggerated style. The look definitely fits the style of these movies.
The fact that Amell is playing this character is the only reason I have any kind of interest in the film. I think he's a great choice for the role of Casey Jones. I just wish the casting could have been under better circumstances of a better Ninja Turtle film franchise.
Amell joins Megan Fox as April O'Neil, Will Arnett as Vernon Fenwick, and William Fichtner as Eric Sacks. Some of the newcomers to the franchise include Tyler Perry as scientist Baxter Stockman, Brian Tee as the new Shredder, and Laura Linney, who was just cast in an undisclosed role. Bebop and Rocksteady will appear as villains, but there's no word on who will be playing them.
The movie is being directed by Earth to Echo‘s David Green, and it's set for release on June 3, 2016. What do you think of the new look of Casey Jones?
