Earlier this year, reports emerged of the troubling working conditions for artists and animators on Sony’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, with over 100 people said to have left the project during production due to unsustainable work practices.

The humorously cheesy song features the line "I train in my car, I'm a ninja," which was sampled for the movie.

Now, the franchise has been rebooted once again with Mutant Mayhem, only this time it's unlike anything that came before it, looking instead to bring the TMNT magic and charm that's kept the franchise successful on the small screen to a stylized animated feature-length adventure — and Paramount is so confident in it that TMNT Mutant Mayhem 2 is already in the works.

Both of these films were some of Paramount's biggest releases of 2023, with the movies being highly anticipated and part of massive franchises.

Splinter is one of the most iconic characters from the TMNT franchise, with the mutant rat training the titular Ninja Turtles in the sewers of New York City. Due to the many different adaptations of TMNT, Splinter has had a variety of origin stories, although many of them follow a pretty similar pattern. However, one TMNT iteration from the 1980s gave Splinter an even more tragic backstory, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem may be using it.

It's no surprise that TMNT occasionally reuses actors, as the massive multimedia franchise has been going on for decades now. However, the fact that this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem actor has played a similar character before makes this fact too interesting to ignore.

The upcoming film will retell the story of the Ninja Turtles as they face an army of mutants with ties to a mysterious crime syndicate.

While Shredder is a huge name in the TMNT universe, the upcoming animated film seems to be taking the franchise in a different direction. While it wouldn't be surprising if Shredder showed up eventually, the villain really isn't needed for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics debuted in 1984, and the franchise grew to include toys, animation, video games, and eventually live-action films.

While there are some beloved villains that are oddly missing from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, the film is already hinting that another huge character could appear in the final movie.

Baxter Stockman is one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise's most popular villains, with Shredder and Krang being the only ones that really outshine him.

Although characters like Shredder and Krang tend to be the ones facing off against the turtles, it seems that the newest adaptation will be taking a different approach. Everything is hinting that Baxter Stockman will be the antagonist of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and it makes too much sense not to be true.
