Seth Rogen resurrecting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie series

Nickelodeon is rebooting “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” for the big screen with “Sausage Party” producers Seth Goldberg, Evan Goldberg and James Weaver producing via their Point Grey Pictures label, and Jeff Rowe (“Gravity Falls”) directing. “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” scribe Brendan O’Brien will pen the revamp.

Paramount will distribute the film – the studio were also behind the last two movies, produced by Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes and released in 2014 and 2016.

Seth Rogen

The new version will be CGI — The last time there was a feature CG version of the property was Warner Bros.’ “TMNT” in 2007.

Said Brian Robbins, President, Kids & Family for ViacomCBS: “Adding Seth, Evan and James’ genius to the humor and action that’s already an integral part of TMNT is going to make this a next-level reinvention of the property. I’m looking forward to see what they do, and I know that Ramsey Naito and her team are excited to take the Nick Animation Studio into another great direction with their first-ever CG-animated theatrical.”

Big question is : Which character will Rogen voice?
