1990 Movie Question

*Warhorse* · 01-28-2007, 06:53 AM

Hey, I was wondering. I know that the stunt actors for the Turtles had cameos in the movie.

Mikey was the pizza man
Donnie was the Foot Messenger that slapped April
Raph was the patron in the cab.

But I do not know who Leo is. Leo is played by David Foreman.

In the credits, it says David Foreman played Leo/Head Thug. So, I originally thought that he was the guy offering the teens cigarettes. But that ends up being Sam Roakwell, who is casted as "Gang Leader" (which leaves me more confused, because gang leader and head thug are the same thing)

So, who is Leo? Could it be the guy that Tatsu was fighting, and told him not to lower his eyes to an enemy? I have no clue!

Wikipedia says:

The four actors playing the Turtles also had cameo appearances in the movie without their costumes. Tilden (Donatello) was the Foot messenger that says "We've been looking for you, Miss O'Neil". Pais (Raphael) is the passenger in the taxi cab that says "What the heck was that?" Sisti (Michelangelo)is the pizza delivery boy at the beginning. Foreman (Leonardo)plays a gang member in the warehouse when Casey Jones defeats Tatsu.

^That kind of narrows it down, huh.

But hey, I do know a bit of trivia in that scene when the gang leader yells "What are we waiting for? Let's get him!" Well, during Splinter's speech to the teen, if you were to look to the teen standing on the left of the screen, that's Skeet Ulrich from Scream.

But I guess Leo's actor will remain one of those mysteries.

*Kendamu* · 01-28-2007, 10:11 AM

If someone could find some pictures of Mr. Foreman to compare to the gang members in that scene maybe we'll find out.

My theory is that all the Turtles were simultaneoulsy voices and performed (in both normal and martial arts scenes) by the mysterious "guy in the orange hat" behind the table turing the argument scene.

**Jester** · 01-28-2007, 11:25 AM

I thought both the cab driver and the patron were turtle actors....but I could be wrong.

johnnyblaze · 01-28-2007, 02:22 PM

just the patron. That was Josh Pais=Raphael

*XERO* · 01-29-2007, 08:16 AM

I always thought Leo was the guy in the beginning who mugged April.

*Kunoichi_Haruko* · 01-29-2007, 11:24 AM

Holy...You know, I think you're right! He would fit the description of head thug, wouldn't he?

If that is the case, I suppose it is somewhat ironic. Cam Clarke voiced both Leo and Rocksteady in the old toon. And in the first episode, the pre-mutated Rocksteady is the head thug who attempts to mug April. Funny how those things work out, isn't it?

*Warhorse* · 01-29-2007, 04:59 PM

No, it's not the guy that attacked April in the beginning either, because it's that same Sam Rockwell.

I give up. I've been trying to figure out Leo's stuntman cameo, but I just can't. Like someone said above, if there was a picture of David Foreman, we might be able to figure out who he is.

*Kunoichi_Haruko* · 01-29-2007, 06:16 PM

Really? *pops in movie 1 dvd and watches scene* Well I'll be, it is him. Dang. David Foreman, I demand you show yourself!!!!

Pretty please?...

*Warhorse* · 01-29-2007, 06:32 PM

^I know, it's really starting to piss me off!

NinjaTurtlesFan · 01-31-2007, 09:25 AM

How about the Foot Soldier that Tatsu knocks out when he losses his temper. Some other Foot Soldiers remove his mask and you see an chinees looking guy. I believe David Foreman is Chinees looking.

*Warhorse* · 01-31-2007, 07:34 PM

Foreman a Chinses name? Anything can happen.

It could either be him, or maybe the red head that Tatsu was training. Maybe it was one of the kids that Casey and Raph were "disciplining" after stealing that old ladies purse? They would be considered thugs, right? But which one is the lead thug?

*Roseangelo* · 01-31-2007, 07:45 PM

Foreman is Asian, although I'm not certain if he's Chinese.

There was a People magazine article from 1990 that published pictures of all four Turtle actors out of costume (or in partial costume, so that you could at least see their faces). Don't think I have that anymore, though...

"C'mon! Let's get 'im! We have a loyalty to The Shredder" guy? Wasn't he also the dude telling Cheif Sterns to check the East warehouse on Lairdman island? O_o

*triplexxx* · 01-31-2007, 07:55 PM

NinjaTurtlesFan · 02-01-2007, 02:10 AM

This is David Foreman. The picture is not so clear because of the words in the picture.

johnnyblaze · 02-01-2007, 08:20 AM

how cool is that-- a picture of him as Leo holding his child.

I know he did stunt work for Batman Begins and he talks during the DVD feature on the fighting. You can see some really good pics of him on there.
