Het interwebz is nog steeds in staat van oorlog over Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles rel die Michael Bay heeft heeft ontketend, door te zeggen dat in zijn film de oorsprong van de MUTANT turtles buitenaards is. Nu heeft de website Coming Soon aan project's director Jonathan Liebesman gevraagd hoe het nu precies zit. Deze wilde dan ook het volgende er over kwijt.

"I heard about it, and I'm glad there's such a passionate fanbase--I think that was good news for everyone--but literally, I've just been locked in a room with Kevin Eastman. I think what we're developing, the fans will love. I'm a fan, and I love what we're doing. It's a lot of stuff Kevin's been thinking about for a long time and just hasn't done. Anything we expand will tie right into the mythology, so I think fans will go apesh*t when they see it."
