Tyler Perry will be playing a villain in the new TMNT sequel, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2″.  It won’t be Madea versus the Heroes in a Half-Shell” though, instead Perry has been cast as scientist Baxter Stockman. TMNT fans know Stockman as the scientist who invented “Mousers” which hunt down sewer rats. The Ninja Turtles arch-nemesis Shredder uses Stockman’s invention to track their mentor Splinter who’s giant rat.

The Hollywood Reporter announced the casting news, but there aren’t any details yet on if Tyler Perry’s character will end up mutated into a human fly like Baxter Stockman was in the cartoon series. “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2” is currently in production with director David Green doing this one. Michael Bay returns as executive producer as well as Will Arnett as TV cameraman Vernon Fenwick.

As of now, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2” is scheduled to be released on Friday, June 3rd, 2016.
