"Nickelodeon's going the Teen Titans Go! route with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!"
These complaints and worse were levied at the upcoming 2D action-comedy cartoon adaptation of the TMNT from Mirage Studios and Nickelodeon Animation Studios. However, we now have our first footage to analyze, which just might convert a few naysayers.
The series features the voice talents of Ben Schwartz (Parks and Recreation) as Leonardo, Omar Miller (Ballers) as Raphael, Josh Brener (Silicon Valley) as Donatello, Brandon Mychal Smith (You’re The Worst) as Michelangelo, Kat Graham (The Vampire Diaries) as April O’Neil and Eric Bauza (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) as Splinter. There's no sign of the Shredder in the series as the main villain, Baron Draxum, will be voiced by WWE-wrestler, John Cena.
There's still no release date but the teaser trailer says the new series is coming soon.
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles follows the band of brothers - Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo - as they discover new powers and encounter a mystical world they never knew existed beneath the streets of New York City. Co-executive produced by Andy Suriano and Ant Ward, the 26-episode series will debut on Nickelodeon later this year.
