That film was a continuation to the 2014TMNTmovie reboot - itself a commercial success that took in $ 493 million at the global box office , despite its middling - to - pathetic critical response . Out of the Shadowsfared pretty better with critics , yet its worldwide take still drop to $ 245 million against a $ 135 million budget .
Of course , just becauseOut of the Shadowsunder - perform does n’t mean theTMNTbrand is numb in the urine . Far from it , the franchise has since then continued on in other mass medium , including funny books , video games , and sketch TV shows ( see Nickelodeon’sRise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ) . For related to reasons , it ’s not surprising to get word that Paramount is already get quick to relaunch the 1980s - born IP on the magnanimous screen in lively - action yet again .

It ’s to a great extent implied inTHR ’s article that the newTMNTmovie will serve as a reboot , now that Jim Gianopulos is serving as Paramount ’s chairman . Variety ’s report on the capable claims that the intent is to " bring up the franchise through " this motion-picture show , indicate this will stop up being a gruelling reboot rather than a partial subsequence . For that ground , it ’s unlikely that any of the actor from the last twoTMNTfilms ( let in , Megan Fox as April O’Neil and Stephen Amell as Casey Jones ) will be return .
All things considered , it take sensation for Paramount to reach reset on theTMNTlive - natural action movies at this stage . The last two film for sure have their fans , but most people seem to consort that neither one really got a fast grip on the tone they were going for , much less succeeded in their populace - build efforts .
