Movie trailer round-up: ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’, ‘Peanuts,’ ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ & more

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are coming back to the big screen in a live action/CGI film produced by Michael Bay (Transformers) and directed by Jonathan Liebesman (Wrath of the Titans). Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello are back and bigger than ever before–these CG turtles are massive in terms of sheer size. The big bad Shredder is played here by William Fichner and the TMNT will be battling his Foot Clan in New York City. Megan Fox also stars as April O’Neil, the famed fearless reporter who jarringly isn’t sporting red hair and a yellow raincoat for the reboot. The TMNT canon is being altered for this movie; the teaser reveals that Shredder and April’s father conspired to scientifically create heroes and thus were born the Turtles. Our heroes look strange but the action sequences look fun–it may not be the TMNT rebirth we were all expecting but that doesn’t mean you won’t go and see it.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cowabunga into theatres August 8.

Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the rest of your favorite characters from Charles Schulz’s Peanuts strips are getting animated for an upcoming CG film aptly titled Peanuts from director Paul Feig (Bridesmaids). Not much to take from this very teasy teaser expect for the fact that I wish Feig and the film’s creatives decided to go with a hand-drawn version to keep the nostalgia factor high.

Peanuts opens November 6, 2015.
