 film, which is set to be released next year. Seth and his team are working round the clock to to make the fully-animated film, titled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, the best it can be, with the actor now explaining the movie feels 'deeply personal.' In an interview with The AV Club, the TMNT producer said: 'We found a way to make it deeply personal. 'It's a teenage movie, we're putting a lot of our own feelings — of awkwardness and insecurity and a desire to belong and be accepted and all that — into the movie. 'And as I sit around with the other people working on [the film], I'm like, 'We found a way to care about this,' which is great.' He went on to say TMNT is 'something I loved as a kid,' and revealed they are working on other childhood favourites, including a Darkwing Duck show. 'That becomes a fun part of the challenge: How do you infuse more and more of yourself into your work? I think the more of yourself you put in, the more people like it.' Seth first revealed that he would be working with Nickelodeon on a new TMNT movie with a tweet in June 2021. The post showed a page of notes and doodles supposedly written by the turtles' leader, Leonardo, with the date August 11, 2023, in the corner. Seth's long-term collaborator Evan Goldberg is tied to the project, alongside James Weaver, and will be co-directed by Jeff Rowe, writer of Netflix film The Mitchells vs The Machines, and storyboard artist Kyler Spears. Details about the plot or cast have not yet been revealed. However it has been confirmed to be aiming for release in August 2023. Got a story?
