WhenTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhemopened a year ago, it hit like a mutagen bomb.
anniversarynever before had anyone really thought about treating them like… teenagers.
But you cant be a kid forever, even if youre a pizza-loving turtle in a half-shell.
And in the first major continuation ofMutant Mayhems canon, our guys are going to have to grow uprealquick.
Really give the people more of what they likedbut not!
And it was through Bishop, who actually splits up the kids and puts them in some insane situations.
We recorded these individually, explains Donatellos Micah Abbey.
I dont know what to do.
I think its a good thing, Noon says.
We have more time to ourselves and our own characters to work out some kinks that maybe we had.
[Its] really finding our own character within this tale.
Everyones got their own tale, and everyones going through their own struggles.
And eventually, we all come back together, of course.
But yeah, for the time being its a growing moment, especially for Raph.
Consider for example thatTales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesis a two-dimensional show.
Says Wan, Whats in the movie didnt follow a traditional CG approach.
And we want to take on that and not take a traditional 2D approach.
So if you look at a traditional action show, the lines are very polished.
Everything is very pristine.
But on our show, everything looks raw, its rough.
It feels like punk rock.
And we definitely want to embrace that.
They really do grow up so fast.
Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles debuts on Paramount+ on Aug. 9.
