It’s been years of hard work. But, yeah, it’s been really fun and rewarding. And I love the world and the characters, and I think it’s turned out very well.” On the theme of the film, Ice Cube, who takes on the role of villain Superfly, said: “Acceptance. Everybody wants to be accepted. We all got our differences. We all look different. You know, we all act different. Some of us got disabilities, some of us disfigurements, whatever. But we all want to be accepted just as one of the guys or one of the girls.” New York City is under threat once again, but this time, an unspeakable evil has emerged from the depths of the sewers. A ruthless mutant mastermind, known only as Superfly, seeks to plunge the world into chaos and domination. With an army of menacing mutants at his command, he poses the greatest challenge the Turtles have ever faced. Ayo Edebiri, who voices the iconic character April O’Neil, talked about what audiences can expect from the film. “I think they can expect a beautiful movie. I love the animation style. I think the animation is just so alive and fresh and cool. A great story, some heartfelt moments and a lot of laughs. I think this is a pretty funny movie,” she said. The film is a high-octane, thrill-a-minute extravaganza that captures the spirit of the iconic franchise. The actors cast for the film include Micah Abbey as Donatello, Shamon Brown Jr. as Michelangelo, Nicolas Cantu as Leonardo, and Brady Noon as Raphael. “I remember ever since I was really young, loving them and watching the show and when the movie came out, I was so excited. Had all the toys, like, yeah, it’s something I’ve been obsessed with since I was a small child,” said Rogen.
