K. Todd Freeman possibly playing Baxter Stockman?

Mr Derp · 08-29-2013, 03:59 PM

I noticed that someone added "K. Todd Freeman" to the cast list on the IMDB TMNT 2014 page. He is listed as playing "Dr. Baxter Stockman". To corroborate this, I did a bit of Googling, and found a reference to him playing in TMNT 2014 on this web page: http://www.broadwayworld.com/article...20130719-page2

Seems like it might possibly be legit. Fly Baxter would be pretty "kewl" in live action.............

Excellent find, This pretty much confirms that Baxter Stockman is in the new movie.

Part of me wonders if they're just pulling from his IMDb, because there's been no reference to Baxter anywhere else.

Yeah. Casting news finds it's way onto IMDB, but it's not like IMDB has investigators that would find the scoops first.

I could've sworn that I read somewhere that Mos Def was playing Baxter...haha.

The Mos Def casting was fake.

Well it says the article was posted on Friday, July 19, 2013, and I don't remember K. Todd Freeman being on the TMNT 2014 IMDB page at that point. So I don't think it was pulled from IMDB......... If it's true that Baxter is in this, then Krang will probably be saved for the sequel, and Baxter will be the one who supplies Shredder with "tech" (hopefully mousers).

Yeah, because IMDB is solid confirmation. God, you're about as bad as Miru at this point.

If Baxter is in this I'd be pleasantly surprised. It would be kind of cool to see them go a route that hasn't been done in film yet. I just worry that they will put way to much in this.

I wouldn't mind if it was a relatively brief set up to the sequel, setting up for the mouser storyline.

I not really familiar with any of his work, and cant remember him in TDKR at all, but if true I think its dope that they included Baxter he's one of my favorite villains.

I remember him from Ghostwriter, and I saw him in The Dark Knight also. It'll be interesting seeing him in action as Baxter Stockman.

^ this. i'm unfamiliar with him, but i dig his look. i think he would make an excellent Stockman

oh sh*t! Mr. Trick!

*ToTheNines* · 02-22-2014, 06:37 PM

Did we ever get a confirm/deny on this? Seems like it might just be an imdb joke, but it's possible I guess.
