Eric Sachs not in TMNT 2?
 

So the new trailer has been released and he was nowhere in the trailer. The actor signed on for a 3 movie deal.

I'm wondering if maybe we'll see him in the first 5 minutes of the movie begging for his life to Shredder for "failing him" in the first film, and then Shredder using his blades to slash open his throat and leave him dying on the floor. It would be a great way to introduce the new actor as Shredder and show how much better than he is the last film.

Also seeing Eric Sachs dying in the most gruesome way possible for the terrible concept of a "white man Shredder" needs to be done.

Wasn't it confirmed he was in the movie? I was wondering where he was in the trailer but that doesn't mean he won't be in it. I actually liked the character Sachs, I'm glad he wasn't Shredder in the final cut of the film but to get rid of the character in the first 5 minutes is such a waste, they built him up in all of the first movie that he needs to be redeemed in a sequel and I believe it can be done.

He doesn't need to be redeemed. He needs to be killed by the Shredder for failing him in the first movie. The punishment for failure is death.

Shredder should slit his throat with his blades. That way his role in the movie will be fullfilled and his character arc will end.

I really think he's been replaced in favor of Baxter Stockman.

He's gonna be Krang. Bet you dollars to donuts.

Krang will probably appear at the very end of the movie as a teaser to TMNT 3 but I don't think he's any of the humans in the movies right now.

Also Eric Sachs was knocked out in the first film which wouldn't make sense if that was a robot body with a brain inside.

They build up this character in the first movie and you want to kill him? They need to do something interesting with the character to not make the whole first movie feel like a waste and just shove him under the bed. Like it or not he's completely connected with the Turtles origin in this universe so I wish they could do something more with him.

First movie was a waste. The less said about ANY of it, the better. If they were smart, they'd pull a "Hulk - Incredible Hulk" and never even mention the first movie.

He needs to die. He was a mistake from the getgo due to a script revision. He deserves nothing but death. I want him to die.

We can only hope.

Cubed, my man, they showed the DimX invasion in the very first trailer. Krang's not just sequelbait.

Now you're just acting childish.

You don't even care for the second movie so what does it matter to you?

The Hulk - Incredible Hulk thing makes no sense either since they're not technically in continuity, different movie studios and Hulk is not part of the MCU. They made a "loose" sequel/connection to it in Incredible Hulk by having him start in South America and to not dwell into the origins again but they contradicted the origins in that same intro anyway. This is also already being a loose sequel by having the turtles look slightly different, Shredder/Karai being different younger actors and whatnot. I'm sure more things from the first movie will be retconned.

In February if this year, he said that he would be in the film.

My wife is gonna make me sit through it one day, so it matters to me plenty.

Just because he signed a three picture deal, doesn't mean they HAVE to put him in the movie. He signed that before they knew that Eric Sacks would piss off fans. They could release him from his contract if they don't want him. If he signed a pay or play deal, they will still have to pay him, however. I don't know the terms of his contract but we'll see what happens.

Eric Sacks was the most interesting character in the last movie, in my opinion. I'd love to see Fichtner return but only if his character is important to the story and not just a throw away cameo to waste time.

for all we know sacks body hit the ground and Krang could of popped out and took off, we didnt see much after he got hit in the head

Sachs could already know who Krang is. Krang might even have been involved in creating the mutagen early on with Sachs and April's dad. Sachs might also be helping Krang invade nyc.

utroms were on the scroll on the back wall in the first movie, when sacks and april are talking at his mansion

I agree, he should die by Shredder's blade

I've heard people say this but I don't see them when I look, screen shot please.

I'm pretty sure I've read he's in the movie, but the "3 picture deal" is meaningless. And with any actor with such. It doesn't mean they will put him in 3 TMNT movies... it just mean they legally can make him, if they want to.
