The famous New York Turtles will return to the screens in a big way this year! The feature-length animation, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, scheduled for August , has its first trailer, which you can see below.
As promised at the Kids Choice Awards , Paramount Pictures and Nickoledon released the first trailer for the animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Chaos . The trailer comes right after producer Seth Rogen announced a new animated feature featuring fan-famous warriors Leonardo (Nicolas Cantu), Raphael (Brady Noon), Donatello (Micah Abbey) and Michelangelo (Shamon Brown Jr.) and their mentor, Splinter (Jackie Chan). The rest of the dubbing cast is no less interesting, as we will find there m.in. Giancarlo Esposito, Post Malone, John Cena and Paul Rudd.
We’re beyond excited about the world-class cast we’ve assembled to bring these iconic, beloved characters to life in this new chapter of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles universe . It really sets a new bar for this world-renowned franchise and we can’t wait to bring the movie to audiences.
said Ramsey Naito, president of Nickelodeon Animation and Paramount Animation.
In the past, Rogen has alluded to the idea of TMNT: Mutant Mayhem highlighting the fact that the titular Turtles are teenagers and need to expose their youth on screen.
They’re basically skateboarders. The funny thing is we talked to the music director because we were pretty far behind and they say, ‘The music doesn’t fit together… it fits but in a weird way, how would you describe it?’ Our director was like, ‘I’m describing it as something you’d hear while playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater .’ On the one hand, it’s a random music mix, but on the other, everything fits together perfectly, has the same energy. In addition, several tracks are literally taken from THPS . It’s going to be amazing, really cool, fully animated, it’s coming out in August and it’s going to be great. I’m really excited about it.
According to the official synopsis, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles : Mutant Chaos will feature the Turtle brothers who, after years of hiding from the human world, decide to conquer the hearts of New Yorkers and be accepted as normal teenagers through heroic deeds. April O’Neil, a new friend of the warriors, will help them face a mysterious crime syndicate, but things quickly get complicated when an army of mutants is unleashed on the heroes.
Mutant Mayhem hits theaters on August 4 this year.
