Look, it already turned them into humanoid ninjas who hang out with an elderly rat and handle dairy better than you can; it makes sense the ooze would also make the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’s IP practically indestructible. According to Deadline, the upcoming CG-animated TMNT feature from Seth Rogen’s Point Grey Pictures and Nickelodeon will reportedly clamor out of the sewers and into a theater near you on August 11, 2023.
The film will be helmed by The Mitchells vs The Machines’s co-director Jeff Rowe and penned by Brendan O’Brien, who has previously cowritten Neighbors, The House, and Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates with director Andrew Jay Cohen. “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles… Aug 11 2023 (Leo takes notes like I used to),” Rogen tweeted Tuesday by way of announcement. He also posted a doodle-covered piece of notebook paper from a high school science class that suggests the movie will highlight the fact Leonardo and the boys are actually kids themselves, which is promising. If nothing else, maybe it’ll help remind the children their non-ninja-related education is important, too.
