Earlier in 2020,Seth Rogenannounced that he would be rebootinga CGITeenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesmovie from Nickelodeon and Point Grey Pictures — and he’s finally announced the release date for the film! Ina Twitter postfilled with the mad inner workings of his creative process, Rogen wrote the release date ofTMNT, as well as a slew of other hints at the upcoming feature.
Rogenhas previously statedhow this version of the turtles will really emphasize its “teenage” aspect, which is made clear by the ruled paper and high school boy-like notes in his Twitter post (anyone else still draw those “S” shapes at work?). Lots of doodles affirm the modus operandi of our favorite pizza-loving turtles, including discipline, honor, loyalty, and, of course, fun-filled immaturity. Rogen also adds the types of mutation such as deletion, duplication, and translocation, as well as a note to apologize to April (andMegan Foxwhile we’re at it).

We last saw our turtles on the big screen in 2016 withTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadowsstarring Fox andWill Arnett, which certainly left fans lacking the crazy energy of its animated counterpart. Rogen seems like a great choice to revive the beloved IP with his trademark combination of humor and entertainment, as his producing credits have only had a rare critical or commercial flop here and there.
Rogen has certainly been killing it on-screen and off, choosing his projects carefully as he enters the rebranded hot dad phase of his career. His upcoming projects includestarring asSteven Spielberg’s unclein the film inspired by the director’s childhood, appearing inHulu’sPam and Tommyabout their infamous sex tape, plus a whole host of other pictures in development. He is also serving as executive producer for Amazon’s hit seriesThe Boys, which iscurrently filming its third season.
TMNTwill head to theaters on June 06, 2025. Check out Rogen’s post below.
