Nickelodeon’s upcoming “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” (TMNT) movie reboot, to be produced by Seth Rogen, is slated for a Summer 2023 release.
The said “TMNT” film, which will be CG-animated, will hit theaters on Aug. 11 in 2023, Rogen announced on Twitter earlier today, June 2.
Rogen’s announcement came in the form of Leonardo’s handwritten notes and doodles on a piece of crumpled paper, which includes the words “honor” and “loyalty” sandwiching a drawing of his iconic sword.

The official Twitter page of Nickelodeon’s “TMNT,” meanwhile, simply replied to Rogen’s announcement with the iconic catchphrase, “Cowabunga.”

The said film reboot will be directed by Jeff Rowe with the script from Brendan O’Brien, as per Variety earlier today. Also producing under Rogen’s Point Grey Pictures production banner are co-founder Evan Goldberg and president James Weaver.
“TMNT,” which started as a comic book in 1984, has since gotten several adaptations in cartoons on television. It was first adapted as a live-action film back in the ’90s prior to Michael Bay’s 2014 and 2016 films “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” and “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows,” respectively. /ra
