This August will see Paramount+ premiere the all-new 2D animated series Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, continuing the adventures of the turtles as seen in last year's feature film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. Now, ComicBook can confirm several returning voice actors from the film that will reprise their roles in the new TV series, plus a few new additions to the cast of Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the names might surprise you.

Rose Byrne will return to TMNT, reprising her role of Leatherhead. In the series Leatherhead is trying to adjust to her new life away from Superfly, but the giant Australian crocodile is having a tough time. Always ready to throw a shrimp on the barbie and go on a walkabout, Leatherhead loves the Turtles and her fellow Mutanimals but is struggling to truly fit in as both a mutant and an Australian in New York.

Natasia Demetriou (What We Do in the Shadows) will also reprise her role, returning as as Wingnut, the mechanical genius Mutanimal bat. In the animated series Wingnut will be find a "kindred spirit in Donatello," talking about anime, comics, and their favorite sci-fi reptiles all day. But she does not love life in the sewers-she's terrified of the dark, claustrophobic and a little paranoid from too much doomscrolling.

Finally, Post Malone will return as Ray Fillet, the Mutanimal manta ray who loves being a mutant just as much as he loves singing his name.
