Words Robb Sheppard

A passion project from the mind of self-proclaimed permanent teenager Seth Rogen looks set to be the most faithful version of the cool, crude, party dudes to ever hit cinema screens.  That means you can expect body-popping, shuriken-throwing, and lots of laugh-out-loud moments, all whilst our heroes save their city from certain doom. Cowabunga!

Instead of going down the well-trodden live-action route, directors Jeff Rowe and Kyler Spears, of The Mitchells Vs The Machines fame, treat us to an astonishingly striking, Spider-Verse style of animation that feels like you’re watching a moving, living, breathing comic book.

It’s also the first time that the teenage turtles have been voiced by actual teenagers, too! Shamon Brown Jr, Nicolas Cantu, Brady Noon, and Micah Abbey lend their voices to the bodacious brothers Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Donatello, giving the film a youthful energy and enthusiasm that made the turtles’ name back in the nineties.

Throw in Jackie Chan as radical rat Master Splinter, Seth Rogen and John Cena as baddies Bebop and Rocksteady, and other well-known names voicing comic book favourites and this feels like the TMNT film that fans have been waiting a lifetime for. Turtle Power!

Shell Raisers

Jackie Chan

Master Splinter is a highly skilled ninja, wise sensei, and adoptive father to the turtles. Who better to voice him than the martial arts living legend himself?

John Cena

You can’t see him, but you certainly hear the wrestling legend as the voice of rockhard Rhino, Rocksteady.

Paul Rudd

This forever-young fellow permanent teenager and Prince of Hollywood voices Mondo Gecko, the super-radical, skate-board-ing, metal-loving leopard gecko.

That's Not All!

There’s Ayo Edebiri as April O’Neil, Rose Byrne as Leather-head, Maya Rudolph as Cynthia Utrom, Ice Cube as Superfly, Hannibal Buress as Genghis Frog, Post Malone as Ray Fillet, and Giancarlo Esposito as  Baxter Stockman.
