Not much is known about theNinja Turtlessequel. We’ve heard thatBebop and Rocksteadywill appear, and thatCasey Jones is a possibility. Regardless, it’ll be out in June 2016.

The firstTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtleswas a critical disaster, but a cultural smash. It grossed almost $200 million in the US and almost $500 million total worldwide. Paramount and Platinum Dunes quickly got to work on a sequel, and that’s where we’re at now.
What we can tell from this casting is that Arnett’s character, Vern, has likely used his perephial connection to the mysterious Turtles for some kind of fame. And it’s working if he’s in the front row of a Knicks game with a Victoria’s Secret model. Whether or not these scenes make the final cut, we’ll have to ask Green, but they’ve got to be pretty important to shoot before the production gets into full swing.
