A work-in-progress cut of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem screened at the Annecy Animation Festival last week, and the reactions were very positive. Now, the social media embargo has lifted for the first press showings of the version of the animated reboot that'll be hitting theatres this August.
The movie seems to have screened for a select few journalists at Paramount, and while we only have a few Tweets for now (other screenings still seem to be taking place), they are just as gushing. It seems fans of the Heroes in a Half-Shell are in for a treat.
Check out some Tweets below, and we'll update as more reactions are shared.
“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. Their new friend April O’Neil helps them take on a mysterious crime syndicate, but they soon get in over their heads when an army of mutants is unleashed upon them.”
Micah Abbey, Shamon Brown Jr., Nicolas Cantu and Brady Noon will voice the roles of Donatello, Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael, respectively. The cast also includes Jackie Chan as Splinter, Hannibal Buress as Genghis Frog, Rose Byrne as Leatherhead, Ice Cube as Superfly, Natasia Demetriou as Wingnut, Ayo Edebiri as April O’Neil, Giancarlo Esposito as Baxter Stockman, Post Malone as Ray Fillet, Paul Rudd as Mondo Gecko, and Maya Rudolph as Cynthia Utrom.
Jeff Rowe (The Mitchells vs. the Machines) directed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, which is produced by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg.
