Paramount Pictures has dropped the trailer of Seth Rogen’s ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem’. After a long time, you will get the latest iteration of Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Donatello after several TV shows and film runs, and this is the second fully animated version to hit the big screen. This is the version of “TMNT” which is a distinctly colorful, comic-book animation style, reminiscent of 2018’s “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.”
The trailer provides the first look at these Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which has revealed the emphasis on “teenage” in this iteration. In this film, you will see the young heroes goof around and film videos of themselves slicing watermelons with swords and ninja stars, with Donatello at one point getting one of Raphael’s slides stuck in his leg. They also explain their origin story to April O’Neil but spend most of the time clarifying they were once regular turtles born from the toxic ooze, not “good,” as she puts it.
This time the ‘TMNT’ characters are the reason for the creation of comic book artists Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, who first revealed the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” to the world in 1984 as a comic book through Mirage Studios. Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and James Weaver Producers of Point Grey Pictures are overseeing the movie with director Jeff Rowe. The last “TMNT” film to hit theaters was 2016’s live-action “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows,” produced by Michael Bay, and before that, an animated film by Kevin Munroe was released in 2007.
The cast of the voice includes Micah Abbey, Shamon Brown Jr., Nicolas Cantu, and Brady Noon in the roles of Donatello, Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Raphael, respectively. The A-list cast has Jackie Chan as Master Splinter, Ayo Edebiri as April O’Neil, Rogen as Bebop, John Cena as Rocksteady, Hannibal Buress as Genghis Frog, Rose Byrne as Leatherhead, Ice Cube as Superfly, Natasia Demetriou as Wingnut, Giancarlo Esposito as Baxter Stockman, Post Malone as Ray Fillet, Paul Rudd as Mondo Gecko and Maya Rudolph as Cynthia Utrom.
