It's upsetting that Alan thinks he shouldn't complain just because he's an actor, but first and foremost he's a human being deserving of respect. He worked so hard on those films, same with his TMNT actor counterparts. He has every right to critique everyone involved in this disrespect towards him. Not cool.
It’s really sad that he didn’t get work after blue mountain. He was an amazing comedic actor. He reminds me of John cenas comedic roles. If more studios would’ve given Alan a chance he could’ve had an amazing career. He’s great as teacher tho but most people haven’t watched that show
Bear in mind, though, that this is his version of events. If you ever hear an actor complain that the crew was treated better than him, like he just did, it’s a good sign to be skeptical. And he didn’t say he thought he shouldn’t complain, he said he thought people weren’t going to take his complaining seriously. That’s not so much self-deprecating as arrogant.
FlowerPower123 he’s honest about what happen. How’s that bitching so if this happen to you. You’d just stay quiet and not speak up like a shell of a person ?
This is kinda sad to hear because I think all the actors who played the Turtles in the 2014 and 2016 TMNT movies did a great job despite how badly they were treated. It's so funny how Megan Fox and Will Arnett were treated so much better when their characters were really bland and forgettable.
it is definitely sad man. I really enjoyed Alan as Raph and Noel was a really good Michelangelo. I thought part 2 was miles better then part 1 I always wanted to know what part 3 could've been but hearing how shitty they were treated is pretty sad
Plus, You're the MAIN CHARACTER(S)!!!! Alan along with Pete, Noel and Jeremy should've been treated a lot better and get paid more. A LOT MORE! Could've made Megan and Will the supporting characters.
@Anubis shadowreaper The common folk are treated just the same if not worse and still don't make as much money as celebs💀. If I were them, I would shut my sissy ass up lmao

Yes. If they would have done any press and public interviews and make the world know who were playing the turtles. It would have gotten them more fame. I didn't ever realize who Alan was until the new Titans series
Absolutely love Alan as an actor. He's got integrity, passion and drive. I've loved every role he's played that I've seen so far and I hope he gets the recognition he deserves. As someone else mentioned, Reacher is amazing and a good test of his acting prowess. He is very entertaining to watch and that's the point.
@M0ike you'd be surprised dude, I bet if he took all that off, he'd still be ripped. He was pretty ripped in his top franchises. Blue Mountain State, Titans and Reacher, that spans more than 10 years.
@@M0ikehe is as big as Reacher. Well maybe an inch or two shorter and maybe 10 pounds light but the guy sells REACHER incredibly well. He is a little young but those things are easy to cast aside for the amazing performance he gives as this character. He will forever be Jack Reacher
@@mr.carmine5930 The 2nd movie made over a $100 million profit.I'm not defending the 2nd movie at all but don't be fucking stupid because you didn't like it
@@smackdowner No, it didn't make "$100 million profit". Learn how the movie business works. The film had a $135m budget. Add onto that--conservatively--a $70m marketing and distribution budget (it was probably higher, as is usual for such films, but I'm low-balling). Let's say total budget was roughly $200m then, with budget + marketing + distribution. Studios take roughly HALF the box office and the theaters take the other half. At the LOW END the movie needed $400m JUST TO BREAK EVEN. It only received $245m in its worldwide run, meaning it lost a good $150m or more for the studio.
As someone who's trying to get into acting and writing and stuff, this is a very helpful insight as to what kind of behavior can be expected from certain companies and directors and whatnot.
Make no mistake about it. That's in every industry. It's just more public in this specific case. Have a goal. Stay focused on your goal and let nothing deter you from your goal - EVER
It wasn't just Michael Bay (or probably not at all). It was probably all of the other producers involved with both films (Form, Fuller, Walker, and Mednick).
@@wesstewart2677 I haven’t disagreed with that. The first was gritty and well written. They shouldn’t have wrote the other one so fast.(wrote and shot within a year of the 1st.) They were trying to capitalize off the franchise too quickly, and watered down the product.
Me too! I don't care what others say about them, they were awesome. I hate that 8 years later I'm hearing about the horrible conditions the actors had do deal with.
@@montraybrown9008 blue mountain state. He played Thad castle. It's a football show with no football at all. Look it up. It had a Netflix movie called bms: the rise of thadland.
The way he explains it. Sounds exactly like how the movie was portrayed. The movie should of been called “Megan fox movie with special guest the teenage mutant turtles” no cares about April o Neal she was the useless chick that drove the van.
Right?? Just verifies a lot of what he is saying. So shit. I would have been way more hype for that movie knowing people like that were behind the voices
Have you seen the original tmnt 1990? How does he compare to that one? That one was the coolest, but our turtles cursed..I’m not sure whether y’all turtles have the personalities that ours had. I’m asking though..
@@Ishbikes they were similar, but not cussing. The animals were cool but way to large to be ninja at that point. And some of the cgi did last too. The story sucked, the plot ripped off spiderman, and most of the actors.. Fox especially.. were bad. And the Casey Jones in this was not Casey Jones we loved in the 90s film. Totally lacking and opposite.
@@Ishbikes the 1990's live action had always been my favorite. That's the type of Raphael I like. He could fight like a ninja and looked good in a trenchcoat too. So ... Let's throw away the Bay!😂
I didn’t know Hawk was also a TMNT and hearing his side of the story is so heartbreaking, and he’s a really good actor too that’s a shame, we appreciate the honesty, honestly.
It’s because of social media “news” sites who pick one line out of this whole bit and use it for click bait. Then people only read the headline and comment. Weird times we live in
Mattflo00 I just realised this is the guy that plays hawk in DC’s Titans....BRUH WHERE TF HE AT! HE DOES NEED LEADING ROLES OMFG. He’s so good at acting!!!!!!!!! More roles more roles c’mon
Seems like he valued himself more than they did simple as that. Notice how he hesitated when they asked if everyone else had the same experience. Then he went on to back track and say Will and Megan got better treatment cuz they had "real writers" and yada yada. No, they had better agents. And those things he is complaining about get negotiated in contracts. Of course the studio is going to try to keep costs as low as possible. Those perks usually come out of the actors pay, cuz they usually have a full entourage they pay for and that will be stipulated in the contract. So he needs to he mad at his agent. He screwed himself.
@@sup4952 problem today is people are just celebrity worshiping. If a celeb said it, you gonna believe it. Oh, unless it's someone the media and Hollywood told you not to like. But this is business and you gotta fight and take it because nobody in that biz is going to take money out of their pockets to put it in yours to give you amenities (if every single employee got every amenities they want production costs would just get out of control, tjat is why these things are negotiated up front! And He knows this he's just using this as a platform to be a victim since it pays so well these days. He shoulda had a better agent or listened to his instincts. But he was prolly too afraid they would just get someone else so he did not negotiate. So don't take a contract and then make the other person look like a piece of shit because you were willing to do it and now you want more. That's just being entitled.
I feel bad for him and the rest of the cast who played the turtles. They did a great job portraying them even tho the design was..... well ..... questionable at best
What I liked about Roxy’s style of interviewing that I couldn’t appreciate at the time of watching this is she’s so serious and inquisitive and she gives the person time to talk. And when she asks a question, she follows up for details.
So many of Alan's roles are memorable, Thad Castle, Hank Hall, Aquaman, the list goes on, yet he is still treated badly and super underrated, its sad to see
I 100% believe him. Sometimes he goes on rants and his delivery is a bit unhinged but Alan is not a liar. He has no reason to lie. He gains nothing from lying. He has enough situational awareness to call it like it is. Good on him to call out the unfair treatment. No shame in that. I don't think it was him complaining about his job at all. "my wife is gonna stab me when I get home."😂I hope she wasn't mad cause he was speaking his truth. I actually only remember him as Raphael.
I have had the same feeling and now I go with my gut 100% I would rather not work than get screwed over. That's what contracts are for. No contract no job.
@@InSaiyanShinobi Yea I heard that. People always need money. But it's not even the fact of having a kid it's the moral of the story. Paramount and the Producers are to blame.
It was a valueable lesson he learnt, and it might have been necessary, because his ending statement in this video shows that bc of his bad experience he is now extra careful in treating others in the best way possible as a producer 👏
Brittany Paulhus for better or worse that's not how it works in Hollywood. Bigger star, bigger paycheque. but that shouldn't mean they get to treat their other stars like shit.
Datsizer Agreed. Let’s be honest, this guy is fuckin’ incredible, he needs MORE lead roles. He’s in so many movies and series but no lead roles!!!! But then again Chris is the #1 captain America I don’t see ANYONE playing him lol
@@DelusionalInsider Honestly, it's super easy to hate on it. But Season 2 redeemed it for me. Plus the action sequences are great. For an american series.
@@Wolta season 2..is literally the worst tv show ever, worst superhero show...actually. If you're a 5 year old who thinks something is great just because of flashy screen flashes..then..well, ig ur a 5 year old lol
Same, and while I won't throw any ill at Megan or Will, it's horrible that they were kept away from them and the press, like they're part of the cast, they make the cast!, and he was a good Raphael
If you haven't seen Blue Mountain State, you have to, he's hilarious in it. Even if you don't like sports or football, the show isn't even about that it's about all the partying and hilarity. It's kind of like Community meets Always Sunny with a sprinkle of Jackass.
@@tmagmfpp7885 True. That got annoying as hell after awhile. Thankfully the BMS movie had everyone come back though except Denise Richards (probably couldn't afford her since the film was made via Kickstarter donations and such).
I loved him as Raphael! He was always my favorite ninja turtle! I'm kinda upset about this. He was perfect for the role. Wait Megan and Will got treated differently?! It was called the teenage mutan ninja turtles?! They're the MAIN CHARACTERS!! Wtf! I loved the new movies! I'm sad they might not come out with a third.
I heard even Stephen Amell (Casey Jones) was peeved being there because he saw all the bullshittery happening behind the scenes, and he hated being around with Megan Fox. I wouldn't blame them actually.
Those terrible terrible bastards. None of these sweet men deserved this, I wish I could have helped them some way, even though I was only nine and they have no idea I exist. But if any of them, for some crazy reason see this, I’m so so so sorry you had to experience this abuse. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a HUGE part of my life and honestly might have saved me from doing something rash. When I was younger, school was horrible for me I’d get bullied not just by students but by teachers, I’m autistic and they treated me like a monster. When this came out, I finally found my people, my friends, my heroes, my second family. I know the ninja turtles aren’t real, but you guys brought them to life and saved me. I know this probably isn’t what you want to hear after all the bullshit these scumbags put you through, but you guys saved my life and I can’t be more grateful to you. Thank you, I love you guys.
One movie dude? Okay..but him ranting and us living in the digital age..this video will out live his career.. it's a time and place for everything... I still never heard of it his guy until this video... So saying that he needs to chill and be grateful and pick his battles...well at least until he got a couple more to add to his resume... people come and go.
@Kozmikōcēlōtl _ first of all I'm not defending anything that was done, ....wrong?...lol.. definitely entitled to your opinion...2way sword it's possible,..it's like hearing an opinion that don't mean anything to me.. idk.... but to a producer/director of a film it could bite him in the a**.... especially living in country labels are quickly put on people...
This man is a legend. Has been an absolute star in everything he's been in and deserves nothing but the best. Big up's on the honesty brother we greatly appreciate it.
He had a contract, it was not a STAR contract because he's not an A list actor, Megan Fox is currently still an A list actor in Hollywood so naturally her contract is way better than his contract.
The first time I heard about Alan as a child was through his role as Raphael, but that was because I was curious about who played the Turtles and chose to google it. I didn’t see him, or any of the other Turtle actors, for that matter, in ads for the movies. They all deserved more recognition.
The more time goes on the more we realize how incredible and special the first ninja turtles movie by Jim Henson was. A true masterpiece. The sacrifices those actors made. The genius of the writing and special effects. Staying true to the comic. Absolutely incredible and truly magical and special.
@@kiwisoup the suits were incredible. There's never been a better turtles film. Jim Hensons genius was a huge part of that. He brought those turtles to life...we haven't seen them since.
Some of us have known that and maintained that knowledge since seeing it in the theater in 1990. That said, the original movie was also plagued with production woes, but it happened to have a director who wanted to be as true to the source material as possible with commercial pressures, and of course the incredible creature effects of the Jim Henson studios. They captured lightning in a bottle and made the 2nd best comic book movie of all time.
I love this actor, he's fantastic in Titans. He also seems very honest, genuine and straight forward but agreeable. It's a shame a production company allowed for that to happen to actors though, motion capture actors are no less actors, that's insane to think it slipped through the system. Imagine if that was done to Brolin as Thanos or what ever else. Disgusting studio.
Wow, I’m so impressed by his transparency and overall awareness of the situation. He admits that he and his colleagues were treated poorly within this part of the industry but he’s also humble over the knowledge that ppl r going through much worse.
@@047Kenny I'm 30 and I feel old AF... The second you're out of your twenties you start to think about "damn, why do my knees crack, why does my back hurt, I shouldn't eat this or that"
No. The movies should never have happened. Misguided from the start, horribly executed and handled poorly on every level. This dude went through all of this suffering for nothing.
@@burntvirtue im a guy that isn’t easily impressed and i barely watch anything unless its really well made. And him in the tmnt films were really freaking good thats says something
Pete forgot his last name and Johnny Knoxville in Put of the Shadows(Leonardo) Jeremy Howard(Donatello) and Noel forgot his last name Fischer I think is Mikey
Seeing this many years after seeing the first two TMNT movies makes me feel sorry for Alan and anyone else that was treated this way. It really showed me that some studios are only in it for the money and don't actually care about the projects or the fans.
@@josephdrummond4376 And surprisingly the 90s Tmnt film was low budget and was an independent film. No big studio heads with their egos arrogance Indifference greed millions of dollars along with the forced kiss ass bs.
@@josephdrummond4376 My only gripes with the 90s film was Mike's impressions in April's kitchen instead of real dialogue to get to know them more; and the Shredder's lack of wanting to take over the city with his army, rather than just their stealing shit. But that's all. Its really good.
Remember these names: Michael Bay, Andrew Form, Brad Fuller, Galen Walker, Scott Mednick, Ian Bryce. These are the bloodsucking scum producers of the Turtles films. Never, ever see a film they're involved in. Now I see why Megan Fox compared Bay to Hitler.
Yep, those are the vampires. Those are all of our bad bosses in life. And the director obviously had no power so he didn't have this guy's back. Bad management produces bad products.
I feel even worse for Johnny Knoxville who wasn't even asked to come back for the second one to dub Leonardo again. I mean not really but what was the thought process behind that? First dub the original actor and give him his own voice back in the sequel? With Splinter they dubbed the character with the same voice actor but the motion actor changed between films. This production was a mess.
Yeah I don't even understand why they used Johnny Knoxville in the first place. So unnecessary and a slap in the face for the guy in the suit actually interacting with everyone and doing the work. And then they used his voice for the second movie anyway Ugh, I've never seen the movies before but man, I feel bad for him and all of them
Confessions Of A Movie Freak it’s okay. It has a lot of flaws but if you can look past them it’s pretty enjoyable. He’s a great edition to the show probably one of the best written on the show. Just be ready to be harassed by the blue tinted light in each scene.
This video makes me feel so sorry for Alan and for the rest of the cast that played the turtles, they deserve much better. So glad Alan is currently doing so well and becoming the big name he makes for himself
Around 2:30 he talks about not being allowed to interview. When the move came out I thought to myself, why are there ONLY interviews with Megan and Will? I wanted to hear from guys and taking on the role of the turtles! Bc it’s supposed to be about the turtles... ugh 😑
First off your wrong in everything you wrote for starters . Pete was the original actor selected to do the VO of Leonardo until Johnny Knoxville was Hired to go re-record Plozek's line however Pete did do the motion capture for Leonardo for TMNT and did the entire VO in Out of The Shadows.
Thankfully it's February 2022 and Reacher is a MONSTER. This guy paid his dues and ANYONE who has worked with Alan knows he's the nicest guy to work with. Alan see you and Catt in Ontario in April!! Love you both!! L.M.
It's such a shame that he didn't like working on those movies at all. Those were my favorite movies towards all high school and I loved his performance the best. It was especially painful hearing that he tried so hard not to be in the second one, it's the one I like the most because it was more focused on the turtles than it was on April.
We didn't say it's good, we say it's better than the first one. Years later yeah, it's not the best quality wise, but they were still comfort movies of my teen years.
I loved him in TMNT (that’s when I first found out about him officially) and I was so hyped when I found out he was going to be in Titans. I’m so upset with the producers of TMNT. What he went through is ridiculous and it is not professional at all. I’m glad he is thriving in his career, he deserves it.
No one deserves to be treated in such a way especially as a key player (actor) on a flim. Thanks for playing my favorite Ninja Turtle Raphael Mr. Alan Ritchson. I wish your career the best from here 🙌🏾
So glad that someone is finally honest. This is the same garbage that happens to people no matter what the job - promises made, that never materialize. Poor working conditions. It's refreshing to hear someone call them out on their abuse. It certainly can't get better if everybody remains silent. Where there is money, there is exploitation.
Those kind of experiences inadvertently make you a better person, he as a producer treats people he wishes he was treated. So he took a negative experience and turned it into a positive one… awesome!!
we kiss their backside like they hung the moon but in reality all these hollywood people are thumb suckin babies who couldnt hack it in real life so the chose to be fake 24/7
When such a big commitment is taken, and something like that happens and it might hold you way back in your carreer, you're allowed to fking complain about it.
I met him when he was doing that movie for rooster teeth, and he is super nice and humble, actually got yt red just to watch the movie, dudes awesome been a fan ever since!!
I like the 90s as well! This TMNT movie just kinda gave me an imagination what mutants would actually look like in real life lool. Storyline was so trash
I've been rooting for Alan to play He-Man in a live-action movie for years now. Hearing these stories, I'd totally understand if starring in another big-budget action movie based on an 80's cartoon/toyline wouldn't be all that appealing for him.
had NO idea JACK REACHER himself was ralph... i rewatched tmnt and was just thinking how ralph looks really similar to alan ritchson and only now found out he's actually ralph zzz glad he found a killer role in reacher=

@@mr.carmine5930 The 2nd movie made over a $100 million profit.I'm not defending the 2nd movie at all but don't be fucking stupid because you didn't like it
@@smackdowner No, it didn't make "$100 million profit". Learn how the movie business works. The film had a $135m budget. Add onto that--conservatively--a $70m marketing and distribution budget (it was probably higher, as is usual for such films, but I'm low-balling). Let's say total budget was roughly $200m then, with budget + marketing + distribution. Studios take roughly HALF the box office and the theaters take the other half. At the LOW END the movie needed $400m JUST TO BREAK EVEN. It only received $245m in its worldwide run, meaning it lost a good $150m or more for the studio.
@@smackdowner Also LOLOL @ calling someone stupid when you're a complete idiot about the subject.
As someone who's trying to get into acting and writing and stuff, this is a very helpful insight as to what kind of behavior can be expected from certain companies and directors and whatnot.
When entering this industry, you need to mind your surroundings.
Make no mistake about it. That's in every industry.
It's just more public in this specific case.
Have a goal. Stay focused on your goal and let nothing deter you from your goal - EVER
Honestly a bummer to hear that he was treated so badly.
Levi Kelly its like with animated movies. All the people who do the animations get little credit, while the voice actors get all the credit
It wasn't just Michael Bay (or probably not at all). It was probably all of the other producers involved with both films (Form, Fuller, Walker, and Mednick).
Reacher is a 10/10. His portrayal of the character is prodigious and I can't wait for season 2. Bravo, Alan.

@@Ishbikes the first movie of that series is the only good one I’m sorry. 2&3 are damn near unwatchable now.
@@wesstewart2677 I haven’t disagreed with that. The first was gritty and well written. They shouldn’t have wrote the other one so fast.(wrote and shot within a year of the 1st.) They were trying to capitalize off the franchise too quickly, and watered down the product.
Me too! I don't care what others say about them, they were awesome. I hate that 8 years later I'm hearing about the horrible conditions the actors had do deal with.

True me either
He did the voice and motion capture.
Right?? Just verifies a lot of what he is saying. So shit. I would have been way more hype for that movie knowing people like that were behind the voices
I knew he was. Saw set pictures. I was wondering why did see more press on him. He was a great Ralph
The real question is ,WTF IS YOUR PROFILE PIC ಠ,_｣ಠ
I absolutely loved the version of Raphael that he played. He actually did a pretty good job. Props to him.
Have you seen the original tmnt 1990? How does he compare to that one? That one was the coolest, but our turtles cursed..I’m not sure whether y’all turtles have the personalities that ours had. I’m asking though..
@@Ishbikes they were similar, but not cussing. The animals were cool but way to large to be ninja at that point. And some of the cgi did last too. The story sucked, the plot ripped off spiderman, and most of the actors.. Fox especially.. were bad. And the Casey Jones in this was not Casey Jones we loved in the 90s film. Totally lacking and opposite.
@@Ishbikes the 1990's live action had always been my favorite. That's the type of Raphael I like. He could fight like a ninja and looked good in a trenchcoat too. So ... Let's throw away the Bay!😂

Jason Did you even watch the interview or did you just decide to comment some dumb shit after 1 minute of listening?
Yea, He's great in Titans
Seems like he valued himself more than they did simple as that. Notice how he hesitated when they asked if everyone else had the same experience. Then he went on to back track and say Will and Megan got better treatment cuz they had "real writers" and yada yada. No, they had better agents. And those things he is complaining about get negotiated in contracts. Of course the studio is going to try to keep costs as low as possible. Those perks usually come out of the actors pay, cuz they usually have a full entourage they pay for and that will be stipulated in the contract. So he needs to he mad at his agent. He screwed himself.
@@sup4952 problem today is people are just celebrity worshiping. If a celeb said it, you gonna believe it. Oh, unless it's someone the media and Hollywood told you not to like. But this is business and you gotta fight and take it because nobody in that biz is going to take money out of their pockets to put it in yours to give you amenities (if every single employee got every amenities they want production costs would just get out of control, tjat is why these things are negotiated up front! And He knows this he's just using this as a platform to be a victim since it pays so well these days. He shoulda had a better agent or listened to his instincts. But he was prolly too afraid they would just get someone else so he did not negotiate. So don't take a contract and then make the other person look like a piece of shit because you were willing to do it and now you want more. That's just being entitled.
This is a good example why the strike began
Ashamed to admit I didn’t know he was a part of those films, love his personality even that much more now.

He had a contract, it was not a STAR contract because he's not an A list actor, Megan Fox is currently still an A list actor in Hollywood so naturally her contract is way better than his contract.
The first time I heard about Alan as a child was through his role as Raphael, but that was because I was curious about who played the Turtles and chose to google it. I didn’t see him, or any of the other Turtle actors, for that matter, in ads for the movies. They all deserved more recognition.
The more time goes on the more we realize how incredible and special the first ninja turtles movie by Jim Henson was. A true masterpiece. The sacrifices those actors made. The genius of the writing and special effects. Staying true to the comic. Absolutely incredible and truly magical and special.

@@kiwisoup the suits were incredible. There's never been a better turtles film. Jim Hensons genius was a huge part of that. He brought those turtles to life...we haven't seen them since.
Some of us have known that and maintained that knowledge since seeing it in the theater in 1990. That said, the original movie was also plagued with production woes, but it happened to have a director who wanted to be as true to the source material as possible with commercial pressures, and of course the incredible creature effects of the Jim Henson studios. They captured lightning in a bottle and made the 2nd best comic book movie of all time.

I feel even worse for Johnny Knoxville who wasn't even asked to come back for the second one to dub Leonardo again. I mean not really but what was the thought process behind that? First dub the original actor and give him his own voice back in the sequel? With Splinter they dubbed the character with the same voice actor but the motion actor changed between films. This production was a mess.
@@kurtnovells 'First dub the original actor and give him his own voice back in the sequel?' One word: cheaper.

So glad that someone is finally honest. This is the same garbage that happens to people no matter what the job - promises made, that never materialize. Poor working conditions. It's refreshing to hear someone call them out on their abuse. It certainly can't get better if everybody remains silent. Where there is money, there is exploitation.
Those kind of experiences inadvertently make you a better person, he as a producer treats people he wishes he was treated. So he took a negative experience and turned it into a positive one… awesome!!
Comments: hes speaking against micheal bay theyll never hire him now.
So, hes going to be in something good next time?
Well hey, it's Hollywood, I wouldn't also be surprised if after Titans gets canceled, he starts throwing shade at the makers of that show
Yup it’s called Jack Reacher! Michael Bay is so 1989.
@@Merdicano he did shows like bms and Smallville I've not seen him dissing them
we kiss their backside like they hung the moon but in reality all these hollywood people are thumb suckin babies who couldnt hack it in real life so the chose to be fake 24/7
When such a big commitment is taken, and something like that happens and it might hold you way back in your carreer, you're allowed to fking complain about it.
I met him when he was doing that movie for rooster teeth, and he is super nice and humble, actually got yt red just to watch the movie, dudes awesome been a fan ever since!!
he honestly pulled such a great performance through even all this nonsense. what a hard working, humble dude. love this guy.
I don’t even know who this dude is. But I feel like he was getting screwed.
Watch Blue Mountain state
Dr Gilbert or Titans
Dr Gilbert oh shit that was Thad?!?!! That’s where he went 😲
He was also in hunger games: catching fire.
Its hawk aka aquaman
TMNT true live action movies in the 90s was far superior to these garage TMNT movies
I hope you meant garbage instead of garage
J Pray absolutely but you can’t deny the work the actual turtles put in
J Pray yep
ah yes
GARAGE movies
they're kind of okayish
unlike these tmnt movies
I like the 90s as well! This TMNT movie just kinda gave me an imagination what mutants would actually look like in real life lool. Storyline was so trash
How poetic is that that they treated the turtles actors just like how the humans treat the turtles 🐢 in their *fictional* world
Alan is such an underrated actor he should have his own leading role in a movie
4- EAST Entertainments watch blue mountain state lol
He’s landed Jack Reacher on Amazon
@@adanrios7951 More like "JACKED" Reacher! He got friggin huge!
Not gonna lie when I found out Thad was fkn Raphael he literally became my favorite part of those movies
Same!
Same!!!!
bigevilworldwide1 I found out when they casted him not when the movie came out lol
I've been rooting for Alan to play He-Man in a live-action movie for years now. Hearing these stories, I'd totally understand if starring in another big-budget action movie based on an 80's cartoon/toyline wouldn't be all that appealing for him.
Maybe a new Conan the Barbarian.
OMG perfect!!!
had NO idea JACK REACHER himself was ralph... i rewatched tmnt and was just thinking how ralph looks really similar to alan ritchson and only now found out he's actually ralph
zzz glad he found a killer role in reacher=
