Did Sheamus the wrestler act well in this as Rocksteady?

Do you think he has potential to make it big as a star, like the Rock or Batista?

He did a fine job with what he had to work with. Wouldn't say I got enough of him to make that kind of judgement call, however.

If other casting team like what they see, sure why not.

I did like him, but next time he needs to not show his lips so much

Of the myriad problems with the film, his performance wasn't one of them.

He did a pretty good job but I usually don't expect much from either Rocksteady or Bebop in terms of portrayals. At least it wasn't the Rock who played him.

He did good with what he got. I wouldn't mind seeing him and Williams reprise their roles in better TMNT movies.

He had amazing chemistry with the one who played Bebop

I was right - Rocksteady is Owen.

Owen Rocksteed is his real name, Ivan Steranko is an alias. These two were the best actors in the movie, and their rocksteady and bebop are the only things I'd ever want to see return from this version of TMNT.

IDW is the best version of TMNT

If they make a TMNT reboot movie retelling the shredder battle/origin, I won't buy a ticket.

"Owen Rocksteed"? The word "steed" can refer to a unicorn and rhinos are believed to have inspired the myth to some extent, but somehow I doubt the writers who thought humans evolved from rhinos knew that little bit of trivia. By the way, why would an Irish guy use a Russian alias?

Anyway, is there one of these for Bebop and Shredder as well?
