Paramount Pictures have today announced a release date for the first teaser trailer for their upcoming live-action fantasy movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Directed by Michael "Destroyed Transformers" Bay, this reboot follows several attempts to revive its franchise, including a mediocre CGI animated effort (TMNT) released way back in 2007.
By placing it within the series of trailers attached to next month's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Paramount appears to be aiming to piggy-back off of the success of Marvel Studios' latest record-breaking blockbuster contribution, and the studio are guaranteed to structure their first preview in a manner which conforms to the preferences of superhero followers. That Megan Fox is virtually the reboot's highest-profile star speaks wonders for its potential to flop harder than The Lone Ranger, although perhaps having The LEGO Movie's Will Arnett (aka Batman) along will soften the blow somewhat.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will sneak into cinemas worldwide on August 8th, with the teaser trailer set to launch alongside Captain America: The Winter Soldier on March 28th.
