New series in 2024!
Nickelodeon has announced a new animated series. Release in 2024. The show will be a direct continuation of the Seth Rogen's movie.

I had a feeling they might make a new series based on that movie, but shouldn't they wait to see if the movie is a success first? For all they know the movie could bomb and then we'll have another Rise of the TMNT situation on our hands.
|
They should probably wait, but this indicates confidence at least.
Would be really silly for them to dive right into another failure of an animated series, without being sure of what they have. |
... Oh, wow... I sure am surprised... I sure am surprised indeed... Yes, siree, I sure am... Who has ever heard of an animated theatrical movie being released as a stealth pilot for a TV cartoon? How unprecedented...
Spoiler:
Anyway, if the leaks are to be trusted, then this is... The second TV cartoon in which Splinter was originally a rat? Not counting the weird instances in the Fred Wolf cartoon where they seemingly forgot what version of the origin they were using of course. |
Yeah, I feel they should wait on whether the new movie does well or not. Paramount and Nickelodeon sure know how to pick their poison.
|
Nick is in for a rude awakening when Rogen's movie flops... lol. But then they can't seem to learn from their wokeness.
|
The movie is basically the first 3 or 4 episodes of a show then in movie form. I suspect the same voice actors would be used for the cartoon.

Predictable, considering the related villain movies they had planed for Paramount+. Though is the show for that streaming or cable?
Can't help but to agree though, seems waaaaay too premature to plan that before they even know how the movie will go. Esp since they're still so desperately trying to get a new young audience -- who has far more options available to them than we did to grab their attention and most may never form the kind of long term attachment to TMNT (or most properties) like older generations and are more interested in their phones than toys -- instead of existing fans who actually have the money and are always there waiting to throw it at good new stuff. Maybe it will be a decent movie and series, I dunno. Even if so, I still badly want a 2003-ish kind of show again, and to stop trying to focus so much on the "teenage" part of the title, so to be honest it leaves me rather sorely disappointed that we'll have to wait god knows how many years again to even just hope such a show could happen... This is now a third in a row focusing on the teen part as if it being added to the title wasn't largely just a gimmick based on comic trends back then to start with. Eesh, enough. I miss the "in title only" kind of vibe. Plus, nothing wrong with "teen" characters who present a more mature depiction for kids to look up to, rather than dumbing the Turtles down to act like dumb kids. Wish we could simultaneously do an animated series for older audiences as well...and they'd double their merchandise profits with those who enjoy both. But that's too silly of an idea to work, it couldn't possibly be wroth it, look at how those comics and toy/collectible companies are making zero profit off older fans. |
I'm not lending any credibility to the upcoming Rogan movie, but in theory this is a cool concept. It's basically what the Real Ghostbusters -sort of- did.
In theory, cool. Who know what it will be in execution, especially given the variable that the new movie could be. |
When did "Woke" become "I just don't like it!"??

Wow, did they edit that out? I read the article this morning and it definitely had a line saying, "New series will begin in 2024!"
But now that line is gone. Did they let something slip too early? Or a genuine error? |

Not surprising at all. 2024 is the year the TMNT franchise turns 40.
|
This isn't really news, they had already announced that the Rogen-helmed film would have numerous follow-ups exclusive to Netflix, focusing on different villains.

I guess more recent "Long Shot," with Charlize Theron. Literally a political movie by nature. But even there I feel like it kept an even keel. It wasn't that great, but I more or less enjoyed it. |
Alright, so did anyone not expect this movie to essentially be the pilot for the next cartoon? Because I suspected as much from the start. I don't know for absolute certain if Hercules, Aladdin, Ghostbusters, Evolution, Osmosis Jones, Boss Baby, Teen Wolf, Men in Black, Care Bears, The Mask, The Croods, How to Train Your Dragon, Tarzan, American Tail 2, Free Willy, Jumanji and Godzilla 1998 were all meant to have TV cartoon spin-offs from the start... But I do know it didn't take long for them to happen...

I didnt suspect this because they usually dont go this route, it's a lot of eggs in one basket, and there is typically a big discrepancy in the
animation budget for a movie vs a streaming series. So how will that work? |
Can't really say I assumed it was intended to start a series, but suspected it might branch off into one depending on how the movie went over. Silly me over here thinking that wouldn't be in the works until after the movie was a proven success and not a bomb. You'd have thought Nick/Viacom would have learned to exercise caution and rein in the overambitiousness.
edit: Though I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Look at their "ideas" the past number of years... Reboot Spongebob with a 3D animated show and a Patrick-based show. Reboot Rugrats in 3D. Loud House? Make Spanish-speaking Loud House and now the soon starting live action Louse House. Being overambitious with Rogen's version of TMNT and planning a bunch of stuff beyond one film this far in advance just makes it look like they're largely out of ideas. |

"Kamp Koral" (I think mostly for Paramount+ but occasionally shows up on cable) and "The Patrick Star Show" that started last year. Okay technically those are more accurately spin-offs, not reboots, but still what I was getting at.
If they can do multiple shows, etc that run at the same time for some properties they own, why is a TMNT series for an older target audience on another Viacom-owned channel so difficult. |
old news.........

So is this even true? Also, I thought the new movie was supposed to be a continuation of the 89 series. Am I wrong?

I don't think anyone ever brought this up about the CGI movie, But the movie will cast teenage actors for the roles, and not adult actors, So I guess they will go with some unknown teen actors for the voices.

To be honest this doesn't seem like such a bad idea commercially speaking. Most cgi animated movies don't make huge amounts of money but since this is essentially a pilot for a Saturday morning cartoon series the idea is that even if it doesn't do big numbers at the box office hopefully most of the kids that watch it will tune in to the show and buy the toys and merchandise.
This is somewhat reminiscent of the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated movie which was basically just an ad for the TV series. It's still the lowest Star Wars movie in terms of box office but it persuaded the audience it did have to watch the show. Best case scenario is that if it does okay then it may renew interest in a live action movie series in the same way as the Imagi movie doing okay numbers convinced studios that had no interest in doing another live action movie that there may be some juice left to squeeze out of live action turtles movie. If I'm being realistic though I think it will just create more confusion with the general audience of what TMNT is or should be; an animated franchise for little kids or a legitimate comic franchise aimed the same broad audience the consume Marvel and DC movies. There is still a lot of a taint on the brand left over from Out of the Shadows and I have little hope they have learned anything from it's failure. Quote:

Someone from Paramount recently said, in a press-statement, that they still have an interest in live-action tmnt movies, down the line.
I believe it was when they announced the paramount plus movies centered around tmnt villains. It was unprovoked, so it does seem to be on their mind. I wouldn’t be surprised. Nick just tested the waters with the video games and then announced a AAA game shortly after. They could be testing waters here too. |
