Paramount Pictures has announced a new “Teenange Mutant Ninja Turtles” film that it envisions will be its next big franchise, alongside “Transformers.” Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec (who have just finished writing the fourth “Mission Impossible” script: “Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol”) have been hired to rewrite the TMNT script, originally written by “Iron Man” writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway.

Viacom had purchased the rights to “TMNT” in 2009 from The Mirage Group, who made the CGI reboot film. Nickelodoen will be airing a CGI “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” series next year.
