The series stars the voices of Omar Benson Miller, Ben Shwartz, Brandon Mychal Smith, Josh Brener, Kat Graham, and Eric Bauza. It was announced by Nickelodeon on March 2, 2017, and was initially scheduled to run for at least 26 episodes. Suriano and Ward were attached as showrunners and executive producers. The series was produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio, and Flying Bark Productions provided the animation.
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles premiered on Nickelodeon on July 20, 2018, with premieres later moving to Nicktoons. On July 27, 2018, it was renewed the series for a second season consisting of 26 episodes. Partway into the production of this season, however, it was shortened in length to 13 episodes. The final episode aired on August 7, 2020. A feature film sequel was released on Netflix on August 5, 2022, following the series finale.
Deep in the sewers of New York City, four mutant turtle brothers lurk. Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo and Michelangelo (calling themselves the Mad Dogs) are in their early teen years and the brothers go on new and exciting adventures. They tap into their mystic ninja powers to learn to work together as a cohesive unit and become a team of heroes as they navigate the modern world and other hidden realms. The brothers get a whole new look, new weapons, and new powers as they discover the hidden city beneath New York and find time for a slice of their favorite pizza.
In the first season, the turtle brothers, along with their friend, April O'Neil, meet an evil alchemist named Baron Draxum, and the dangerous Foot Clan. They also learn of their Master Splinter's secret: that he was once martial arts expert, and movie star, Lou Jitsu. They must collect pieces of an ancient dark armor called the Kuroi Yōroi to prevent the Foot and Draxum from resurrecting the Shredder, a demon once banished by Splinter's ancestors.
In the second season, the brothers face new and old enemies, most notably the evil Shredder, and must stop him from destroying the world. In the process, they must also help Baron Draxum discover his own better nature.
On March 2, 2017, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was announced as a new re-imagining of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. The series was originally intended to have 26 episodes and launch in Fall 2018. Andy Suriano and Ant Ward were attached as showrunners and executive producers. [1] Cyma Zarghami, president of the Nickelodeon Group, stated in a press release:
"The Turtles is a property that has reinvention in its DNA, which keeps it fresh and relevant to every new generation while satisfying the demand from its adult fans. 'Turtles' has been an incredibly important franchise for us since we reignited it five years ago, and we're excited for the new series to take the characters in a different direction with more humor, a younger and lighter feel, and all-new dimensions to explore".[1]
The series logotype was revealed to the public in mid-October 2017.[2] That November, Nickelodeon announced the official voice actor cast for the main characters on the turtles' side. In addition to this news, voice actor Rob Paulsen, who previously voiced Raphael in the 1987 series and Donatello in the 2012 series, served as the voice director for the series.[3][4] John Cena was later cast as the villain Baron Draxum.[5] Besides voice directing, Rob Paulsen provided voice work alongside fellow voice actor Maurice LaMarche.[6] The animation services for Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are provided by Australian animation studio Flying Bark Productions.
The major main-characters art designs were announced and revealed by Nickelodeon in February 2018.[7] This occurred during a Facebook event, which was broadcast live that day.[8] On March 23, 2018, the first trailer for the series was released by Nickelodeon.[9] Each episode consists of two 11-minute carts and each of them tell self-contained, standalone stories with hints of a larger plot.[10][11] The show aired as a sneak peek after the 2018 Kids' Choice Sports in July[12] and later premiered on Nickelodeon on September 17, 2018.[13] On July 27, 2018, Nickelodeon renewed the series for a 26-episode second season.[14][13] However, the season order was later reduced to 13 episodes.[15]
