NEWS: 'Catching Fire' star Alan Ritchson (Gloss) cast as Raphael in the upcoming 'Ninja Turtles' movie


Awesome news! According to Deadline, Our Catching Fire district 1 victor, Alan Ritchson (Gloss) has been cast for the role of Raphael in the forthcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie alongside actress Megan Fox. The film, scheduled for 2014 release, will be directed by Jonathan Liebesman. Congrats Alan!

Now that Paramount and Platinum Dunes has set Megan Fox as the female lead in the Jonathan Liebesman-directed live-action/CGI feature Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, they are working on the turtles. First to be cast: Alan Ritchson, who’ll play Raphael. He’ll be coming off playing Gloss, the deadly dagger-wielding male tribute from District One in the upcoming The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
Now, the original movie series put its actors in bulky turtle suits, but this one will be more like the performance capture in Avatar, making this a good role. The TMNT reboot is dated for a May 16, 2014 release after it was pushed back to cut the budget to around $125M.
