We're probably looking at mo-cap and limited suit work for the Turtles when they're walking around/talking, and then either solid CGI or stuntmen when the "ninja action" is happening.

Voices dude!

Considering the build of these guys, the fact that three of these are good-looking dudes, and that Donnie's actor has such a distinctive face and shape, I would GUESS that more of these actors' appearances will show through the actual turtles, than we're used to seeing. Like with characters in Avatar.

I know Noel Fisher from Law & Order SVU and some other smaller roles, he's alright. I can see why they picked him for Mikey. Dunno the other dudes.

It's interesting though that they all sort of... 'look' like their characters. I hope that doesn't mean they'll start off as humans.

Aside from Feldman I can't think of any voice actors from the four movies, either. And they all did just fine.

Here is another link with a picture of all of them:

Robbie Rist (Cousin Oliver fame) was Mikey in all 3 live action movies.

Really? Poor Robbie Rist and Brian Tochi.

[chrisdude]

We're us. The average Joe doesn't remember those people because they didn't see them. I know we pay attention to them, but voice actors are invisible actors who don't even cross most people's minds.

[TigerClaw]

I never heard of these actors either, But its no doubt that during all the fight choreography, They will just get martial artist to do all the stunts in the motion capture suits.

Sorry, I disagree with the 'they all did just fine' part...just my opinion though. And to me, voice actors are an Extremely important factor in making the film work.

Granted...Robbie Rist was excellent as Mikey in the first 3 live action flicks, & Brian Tochi was fantastic as Leo. Josh Pais & Laurie Faso did fine in the 1st and 2nd movies.

On the other hand, (just me, my own opinion), the voice actors in the 2007 CGI flick were forgettable/so-so at best (except Mikey, to me the voice was terrible in that flick)...the voice actor for Raphael in the 3rd movie wasn't that good...and Corey Feldman (in my opinion) is very overrated as the voice of Donny.

Feldman's voice didn't fit for the brainiac/scientist of the group. Out of the original film, he was the only one that I thought was miscast.

I thought Adam Carl did a much better job in the second Ninja Turtles film as Donny. A better fit.

I always felt the voice cast in the second live action film was perfect.

Having a great voice cast to bring to these characters will only help the film...but a voice that doesn't fit will certainly be a distraction.

Who the hell are these ppl? Ugh...

You know the tmnt movie will suck when Megan Fox is the biggest star of the movie! They should have gotten pro's.. Not some unknown ppl..

I was lookin forward to this movie until now.. So upset that they did not go with Cipes.

Awww, but I thought you had faith?

lost it now.. lol

the movie has been loosing fans from the start.. some ppl lost faith when Bay was attached, some when they were called aliens, some after they read that leaked script or when Megan Fox was hired, I lost it now..

[RaphAndDonnie]

My hopes for the movie are kind of looking up. Relative unknowns are playing the Turtles...I'm still not pleased about Fox being April but whatever. As long as she doesn't overshadow the Turtles and we get decent actors for Splinter, Shredder and Casey then I might actually be kind of happy about seeing this film.

It was never for the fans to begin with. Aside from, in a small way, the pocket of hardcore fans waiting since 1990 to see some form of Bebop and Rocksteady and Technodromes and stuff on the big screen... but I suspect even them will be largely turned off by what form they will come in.

Why does it matter if the actors are known or not? No one knew who the actors were in the first movie anyway.

Yeah, exactly. I really don't see why this would make you lose all faith.

[***First of Two Latin Kings***]

I read on the same site that while Megan Fox was confirmed for the movie, she wasn't confirmed to be April O' Neil. I could see her doing a decent Karai myself.

How? She can't pass for Japanese by any stretch of the imagination.

[Spitfire]

I don't know how this is surprising to anyone. Has any decent news come out of this movie? Not that I'm the right person to ask because pretty much everything we've gotten since the IDW comic started has been ass to me.
