Original plans
Noel Fisher stated in an interview that he and the other Turtle actors had signed on for three films. Megan Fox had also signed on for three films. Tyler Perry said that if a third film was made, his character, Baxter Stockman, would probably mutate into his fly form during the movie. Pete Ploszek also expressed his interests in reprising his role in a third film as Leonardo. In October 2016, in light of the film's mixed reception and financial underperformance, producer Andrew Form indicated that a third film was unlikely.

Re-development
In 2021, after numerous attempts of Platinum Dunes trying to reboot the films, it was announced that Colin and Casey Jost were hired to make a new TMNT film, along with a new set of three films, these are all separate from the Rogen movie, Andrew Form also tweeted that they were planning to add classic villains from the old cartoon, he also tweeted that the new film was gonna be a soft reboot, with all the cast back, although the Turtles would get redesigned, and it would take place after the second film.

by April 2022, work was underway, the script had been finished, the cast was confirmed, and filming was ready to began, although due to Ezra Miller (who was originally set to play Slash) doing a lot of bad things, he was removed from billing and is never referenced in any trailer or ad, all of his scenes were even redone by Terry Notary (although his lines were kept), although the Notary reshoots ending up being temporary, as only 5 of them made it to the final film, with most of Miller's original mo-cap being brought back for the finished film.
