The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are returning to theaters on two fronts in the coming years. Then, the next live-action Ninja Turtles movie will follow in 2028, though details about it are even scarcer than its animated predecessor. While I enjoyed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem a lot and am looking forward to the sequel, I also welcome opportunities where darker Ninja Turtles stories can be told. If the Mutant Mayhem movies can be primarily geared towards kids, why can’t the next live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie be for the older fans? The new live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie will be released in theaters on November 17, 2028, with Mutant Mayhem 2 preceding it on September 17, 2027.
