In a recent interview with SFX Magazine, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem director Jeff Rowe teased TMNT villain Shredder’s appearance in potential sequels to the upcoming animated action comedy. Rowe explained that introducing Splinter’s long-time nemesis in future projects would be much more “interesting and dramatic” because it helps with the titular heroes’ character development.
“When you’ve grown and you’ve become confident as a teenager, to then go up against a foe that is three times scarier than anything you’ve ever seen before, that’s interesting and dramatic,” Rowe said.
What is Mutant Mayhem about?
“After years of being sheltered from the human world, the Turtle brothers set out to win the hearts of New Yorkers and be accepted as normal teenagers through heroic acts,” reads the official synopsis for the film. “Their new friend April O’Neil helps them take on a notorious crime syndicate, but they soon get in over their heads when an army of mutants is unleashed upon them.”
The film will feature the voices of Micah Abbey as Donatello, Shamon Brown Jr. as Michaelangelo, Hannibal Buress as Genghis Frog, Rose Byrne as Leatherhead, Nicolas Cantu as Leonardo, John Cena as Rocksteady, Jackie Chan as Splinter, Ice Cube as Superfly, Natasia Demetriou as Wingnut, Ayo Edebiri as April O’Neil, Giancarlo Esposito as Baxter Stockman, Post Malone as Ray Fillet, Brady Noon as Raphael, Seth Rogen as Bebop, Paul Rudd as Mondo Gecko, and Maya Rudolph as Cynthia Utrom.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is directed by Jeff Rowe and Kyle Spears from a screenplay written by Rowe, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Dan Hernandez, and Benji Samit. It is produced by Rogen, Goldberg, and James Weaver. Executive Producers are Ramsay McBean and Josh Fagen.
