The new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series at Nickelodeon has found its villain in John Cena ’s Baron Drarxum. The WWE Superstar will play the Turtles’ new nemesis when Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles premieres later this year.
“I’ve always been a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, so getting the opportunity to voice a character, especially the villain Baron Draxum, is truly special,” said Cena in a press release.
The release describes Baron Draxum as an alchemist warrior mutant from the Hidden City and a self-proclaimed protector of all mutant-kind. Draxum’s plans involve using ooze, the same green stuff that created the TMNT, to mutate all of humanity. The new villain will use his insect-like creatures called Oozesquitoes to carry out his plans.
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a 26-episode series that changes the dynamic of the TMNT. In this series, the brothers will discover a mystical world beneath the streets of New York City. The Turtles themselves will be reimagined as different species of turtle…
The series is expected to debut in September 2018.
