Ninja Turtles: 10 Reasons It's Going To Suck

4. Megan Fox Is April O'Neil?

It was announced just this morning that Megan Fox has been cast as a female lead in Ninja Turtles, causing the net nerds to speculate that she will end up playing plucky reporter April O'Neil in the film. Given that it's supposed to start shooting within the next two months, we should know for sure pretty soon, though naturally, the news hasn't gone down too well with Turtles fans, who were already fearing the worst. It's bizarre that Fox has anything to do with the project at all given her calling Michael Bay a "Nazi" during an interview for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, but the two appear to have made amends, and she will at least ensure that the film will have some eye candy to ogle. Still, Fox is hardly a good actress - though proving herself recently in Friends with Kids and This Is 40 - and it's difficult to imagine her doing justice to such an iconic, beloved character like April O'Neil.
