Despite season one of
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles having not yet premiered,
Nickelodeon has greenlit a second season of
the reimagined 2D-animated series featuring everyone's favorite Heroes in a Half Shell. The second season will consist of 26 episodes and continue to follow 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."
Season one of the animated series is slated to debut on Monday, September 17, with a global rollout set to premiere this fall across Nickelodeon's channels. Using their newfound powers, the brothers will battle
"absurd mutants and bizarre villains," including WWE superstar
John Cena's villainous Baron Draxum and Lena Heady's mutant spider Big Mama. The voice talent includes Omar Miller as Raphael, Ben Schwartz as Leonardo, Josh Brener as Donatello, and Brandon Mychal Smith as Michelangelo. Additionally, Kat Graham will voice street savvy native New Yorker April O'Neil with Eric Bauza voicing the Turtles' sensei Splinter.
Season two of
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will begin production this fall. Nickelodeon also announced the renewal of four other series:
Henry Danger (S5, 20 episodes),
Knight Squad (S2, 10 episodes)
, The Dude Perfect Show (S3, 15 episodes), and
Hunter Street (S3, 30 episodes).
