While you might not be familiar with the character Leatherhead, who is listed next to actress Rose Byrne, most diehard Ninja Turtles fans will be. Leatherhead is a villainous mutant-humanoid alligator from the wider TMNT universe who has, until now, always been depicted as male.
But now, with Rose Byrne attached to the role, we can only assume that Leatherhead will be female in Mutant Mayhem. Byrne’s fellow Brides Maids (2011) actress Maya Rudolph also appears in the cast list, as the villain Cynthia Utrom.
In the TMNT Universe, the “Utroms” are an evil, warmongering alien species whose most famous member you’ll know as Krang. However, as Cynthia Utrom appears to be a new character, technically, she hasn’t been gender-swapped, although it’s likely she’s the film’s equivalent to Krang (she may even turn out to be a female version of Krang, although, for all intents and purposes, it sounds like she already is).
Either way, we can’t wait to see what these incredibly talented actresses bring to the table in Mutant Mayhem. Forget “Turtle Power” — how about that phrase the Spice Girls often used!
As per Wikipedia, here’s the official synopsis for the film:
After years of being sheltered from the human world, the Turtles set out to win the hearts of New Yorkers and be accepted as normal teenagers through heroic acts. Their new friend April O’Neil helps them take on a notorious crime syndicate, but they soon get in over their heads when an army of mutants is unleashed upon them.
