You Won’t Believe Who’s Joining “TMNT” Now

You Won’t Believe Who’s Joining “TMNT” Now

May 29, 2013 By Michael Hickerson 3 Comments

goldberg4An Oscar-winning actress is joining the cast of the big-screen Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot.

Actress Whoopi Goldberg has reportedly signed on for a role in the upcoming film.   We don’t yet know who Goldberg will play in the film or how large her role will be.

Goldberg will join Megan Fox as April O’Neil, Jeremy Howard as Donatello, Pete Ploszek as Leonardo, Alan Ritchson as Raphael, Noel Fisher as Michelangelo, Will Arnett as Vernon Fenwick and Danny Woodburn as Master Splinter. William Fichtner has also signed on for an unspecified role that many fans speculate could be Shredder.

Goldberg is familiar with genre roles.  She won an Oscar for Ghost and was a recurring character on Star Trek: The Next Generation.

    Let’s face it, she’s probably going to play as Shredder… or more likely Casey Jones.

    Yeah, that’ how much faith I have in this film.
