"Ninja Turtles" Filming and Casting Updates



The Adirondack Daily Enterprise reports that next year's "Ninja Turtles" movie will film scenes at Big Tupper Ski Area, in Tupper Lake, NY, which currently sits dormant.
The movie is mainly being shot in New York City, but Paramount went to the state to find a ski slope where it would be able to shoot part of the action, said village Mayor Paul Maroun. 
Posted signs tell visitors to stay out of the Big Tupper Ski Area while a movie is being filmed there. 
"They needed a ski resort that was closed," Maroun said. "Big Tupper fit it perfectly."
Unfortunately, this news most likely means that the current working script is still based around the script that was leaked online last summer.

In other news, actor Alan Ritchson has confirmed that he has been cast as Raphael in the movie.
It is assumed that Mr. Ritchson will be doing motion capture work for the role, although it is not confirmed it he will also be performing the voice.

With filming just about to begin, we should be hearing more casting information any time now. The only other known cast member at the moment is Megan Fox as April O'Neil.

Free Comic Book Day 2013 TMNT Comic



TMNT fans will want to be sure to visit their comic book shops on May 4th, Free Comic Book Day. One of the gold level offerings will be a brand new comic from IDW, TMNT New Animated Adventures.

The comic is based on the Nickelodeon CGI cartoon series and is written by Erik Burnham with art by Dario Brizuela. Dario's art has previously been seen in Tales of the TMNT, Vol. 2.

This free comic will be the first introduction to a brand new on-going series from IDW based on the Nickelodeon series. Expect to see #1 in shops in the upcoming months, written by Kenny Byerly (also a writer on the Nickelodeon series) and art also by Dario Brizuela.

Free Comic Book Day 2013 Appearances



Free Comic Book Day isn't until May 4th, but comic book stores are already putting together exciting plans to encourage people to visit their shops on that day. And there are two events that should be of particular interest for TMNT fans.

At Steve Lavigne's Shellback Artworks shop in Wells, ME, Peter Laird and Jim Lawson will be appearing, along with "at least one more mystery guest." Follow the Shellback Artworks Facebook page for updated details.

Just a short drive away in Rochester, NH, Kevin Eastman and Tom Waltz will be appearing at Jetpack Comics. Keep watch on the Jetpack Comics website for updated details (the info currently on the website still reflects last year's event).
