Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Cement Their Legacy at the TCL Chinese Theatre
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have made their mark for nearly four decades, captivating audiences on pages and on both big and small screens. Most recently, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem introduced the Heroes in a Half-Shell to a whole new generation while celebrating longtime fans.

In celebration of this new movie and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' long history in pop culture, the Turtles and their creator, comic-book artist Kevin Eastman, joined some of the biggest Hollywood stars by being immortalized at the TCL Chinese Theater on Thursday, Sept. 7. Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo pressed their handprints into a piece of cement in the shape of a slice of pizza at the Imprint Ceremony. Kevin Eastman signed his and co-creator Peter Laird's last names in cement in their own "pizza slice" under the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles logo. Their handprints will now forever rest alongside Keanu Reeves, the Avengers: Endgame cast, and Godzilla.
During the ceremony, Eastman shared some words about his journey with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, from the initial creation all the way to the impact of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. His story proves the importance of following one's passion and dreams because it is impossible to guess how many people can be touched by it. It was also good news for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem fans, with the best-reviewed animated movie of the year earning a sequel and a Paramount+ series and video game on the way.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have become a cornerstone in the superhero genre for Paramount, capturing fans across generations as they relate to Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo trying to find their place in the world. The turtles will be further honored with an exclusive turtle-inspired flavor at Yogurtland called "Fr-OOZE" to celebrate the home release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem for a limited time. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem sparked love for the turtles once again because, like the original comics by Eastman, it was created by people who love these characters and are passionate about sharing their stories. This moment in history and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be forever remembered, among other legends, at the TCL Chinese Theater.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is now available to buy or rent on digital.
