Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes, the company that gave us remakes of NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, FRIDAY THE 13TH, and TEXAS CHAINSAW have been brought on to produce the next live-action TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES film. According to Deadline, "TNMT, a co-production between Paramount and Nickelodeon, is an
outgrowth of the $60 million acquisition made by Nick last October for
global rights to the entire Turtles franchise. Right around the same
time, Paramount made a first look deal with the Platinum Dunes
partners, who will generate genre projects but also want to expand
their scope."
