Days before Paramount’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem even premieres, the studio has already confirmed the animation TMNT film will be getting a sequel. A follow-up from director Jeff Rowe and Point Grey Pictures is in the works, as well as a two-season series for Paramount+, which is currently in development. The show is currently titled Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, with Christ Yost and Alan Wan as exec producers and showrunners.
“Reinvigorating this franchise has been years in the making, and we are thrilled to continue expanding the beloved Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles universe and bring new adventures to families and fans,” said Ramsey Naito, president of Paramount Animation and Nickelodeon Animation, in his statement announcing the series.
The planned series will also see TMNT: Mutant Mayhem stars Micah Abbey, Shamon Brown Jr., Nicolas Cantu and Brady Noon reprising their voice roles as the four titular Turtles. Per the series’ brief logline, the brothers “each will go it alone for the first time. Faced with new threats and teaming up with old allies, the Turtles will discover who they really are when they don’t have their brothers at their sides.”
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem releases in cinemas from July 31st in the UK, and August 2nd in the US. Check out the final trailer here.
