Paramount has revealed a teaser for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, yet another new animated TMNT movie. This is the third time they've tried to reboot this classic Ninja Turtles franchise, following other animated series and even a live-action hybrid CGI attempt (see here) before this. This one brings everone back to their roots. The Turtle brothers as they work to earn the love of New York City while facing down an army of mutants. It's produced by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and James Weaver for Nickelodeon Animation.
