For those of you that haven’t seen the 1991 film, Vanilla Ice actually makes an appearance. He’s the club performer that appears to come up with “Ninja Rap” off the top his head after witnessing the Turtles battle Tokka and Rahzar within the club. The clubgoers assume the fight was just part of a performance, not giving the mutant Turtles a second thought.
Michelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo, and Raphael return to theaters this summer to battle bigger, badder villains, alongside April O’Neil (Megan Fox), Vern Fenwick (Will Arnett), and a newcomer: the hockey-masked vigilante Casey Jones (Stephen Amell). After supervillain Shredder escapes custody, he joins forces with mad scientist Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) and two dimwitted henchmen, Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (WWE Superstar Stephen “Sheamus” Farrelly), to unleash a diabolical plan to take over the world. As the Turtles prepare to take on Shredder and his new crew, they find themselves facing an even greater evil with similar intentions: the notorious Krang.
