Actor Stephen Amell has finally broke out the television glass ceiling and landed his first movie role in a big action franchise. He is set to play Casey Jones in the upcoming 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2' movie.

Not much on his role, or the film have been released, but it is confirmed Megan Fox will reprise her role as April O' Neil, along with Will Arnett as her sidekick.

"A loner who becomes an ally of the turtles and a love interest for O'Neil, Jones is a fan favorite of the series going back to when Elias Koteas played him in the 1990 New Line pic," writes Variety.

Amell has led CW's 'Arrow' for three seasons as Oliver Queen, DC Comics' Green Arrow.

He auditioned for the role with several actors, however the studio favored the actor's chemistry with Megan Fox.

"David Green (Earth to Echo) is directing the sequel from a script written by Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec, and Platinum Dunes' Michael Bay, Brad Fuller, and Andrew Form will return to produce," writes Geek Tyrant.

As it stands, 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2' is set for May 26^th, 2016.
