The heroes in a half shell are on the 2023 new film launch schedule and at last headed again to the massive display in a Seth Rogen-produced animated reboot. The humorous man and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem’s producer has been dropping refined particulars on his flick. Now, he is revealed the completely tubular connection between the latest iteration of everybody’s favourite pizza-loving reptiles and the legendary skateboarder Tony Hawk. And it’s in all probability not what you’ll guess.
The That is the Finish actor not too long ago joined hosts Tony Hawk and Jason Ellis on their Hawk vs. Wolf podcast to hang around and share some hilarious tales. Because the present started to wrap up, the sport-defining skateboarder requested Seth Rogen whether or not or not the latest incarnation of Turtles would skateboard like they’ve been recognized to do in different variations of the property. The An American Pickle star confirmed that the 4 brothers would skate whereas additionally revealing a really particular hyperlink to Hawk that performs into that extracurricular exercise:
They do skate, really, and what’s humorous is we have been having a name with the music supervisor as a result of we have been fairly far alongside on it, and there’s a number of music in it, they usually’re like, ‘The music doesn’t go collectively. It goes collectively however in a bizarre method. How would you describe it?’ And our director was like, ‘I sort of describe it as what you’ll sort of hear taking part in Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater.’ It’s like a random assortment of music, sort of, nevertheless it all matches collectively completely. It sort of has that very same power and spirit, nevertheless it’s like very comparable, and there are actually some songs which can be from like the unique Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater. It’s wonderful, it’s actually cool, and it’s totally animated, and it comes out in August, and it’s unimaginable. I’m actually psyched about it.
That is thrilling information for anybody who’s a fan of the Tony Hawk Professional Skater online game sequence, as a result of one of the vital widespread elements of the sport — apart from its revolutionary gameplay — is the long-lasting soundtrack. Whereas not one of the sequence’ soundtrack playlists are comprised of 1 style or artist, they’re associated by way of depth and really feel — a nostalgic power that ought to pair properly with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles property.
The plot of the newest flick to heart on the world’s most fearsome combating staff remains to be comparatively below wraps. Nevertheless, what we all know for positive concerning the TMNT film (amongst different particulars) is that it’s being directed by at the very least one-half of the staff that helmed the critically acclaimed Netflix characteristic The Mitchells vs. the Machines. It’s time to get pumped as a result of the Sony-produced animated film was among the finest films of 2021, in my humble opinion.
If skateboarding and a musical connection to Tony Hawk Professional Skater aren’t sufficient to get you excited for the Turtle Boys’ upcoming flick, maybe Seth Rogen’s imaginative and prescient of the reboot will. Whereas the final Michael Bay reboot was pretty polarizing amongst followers, Rogen is a self-proclaimed lifelong TMNT fanboy and has mentioned that he needs to deal with the “teenage” side of the franchise, which is an thrilling new route and in addition appears oh-so-fitting coming from one of many writers of Superbad. Evidently, this Turtles fan is happy to see what Rogen has in thoughts for the franchise.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is scheduled to hit theaters on August 4, 2023.
