Nicolas Cantu, Micah Abbey, Brady Noon & Shamon Brown Jr. also debate who is most like each Turtle.
The Big Picture [Editor's Note: This interview was conducted prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike]There are many great iterations of the Ninja Turtles out there, but Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem's heroes in a half shell stand out for two key reasons -- they're voiced by actual teenagers and those teen actors got the unique opportunity to record their voice performances together in the studio.
MICAH ABBEY: We mention the New York stereotype of the “bacon, egg, and cheese." Like Tims, that's something we genuinely were joking about before recording, and then they're like, “You know what? Say that on the recording.” So yeah, we just added that in there.NICOLAS CANTU: Thank you! I’m glad you liked the scene. We have the approval! CANTU: Leo in the movie says, “Oh, so it's a date,” completely misunderstanding what April is saying and that's like me. That is me.
I'm gonna dig into specifics with that in a minute, but first, for all four of you, if you got the opportunity to swap roles and each get the Turtle that you relate to most, who would you each be playing? I was wondering if it would be better for you to name the Turtle you related to most yourself or to have the other three, name him for you.CANTU: Alright, let’s start here. Which one would I be?NOON: I think you could pass for a Mikey, if anything else.CANTU: I’m a fun-loving guy.
CANTU: I think for me, it was more so in the process of recording, finding the journey to leadership rather than just being there already. I think in the first few sessions, I came on, I think, very on top of things as Leo, and Jeff had the great direction of, “Well, let him figure things out a bit." It's the youngest Ninja Turtles we've seen on screen, right? I think so. We're all real teenagers.
