Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles voice actors
Want to know who has voiced the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Since their debut in the early ’80s, the Turtles have become global pop culture icons, with numerous Adaptations across films, TV shows, and games. Who could forget Raphael’s gruff voice? Or Donatello’s nerdy cadence? From Johnny Knoxville to Josh Brener, here are all of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Voice Actors.
With the upcoming Mutant Mayhem, it feels like a good time to pull together this list of all the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles voice actors. Like the long-running comic book, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have had numerous adaptations across both live-action and animated shows and games. The 1987 animated series is undoubtedly the most iconic, with Townsend Coleman famously voicing Michelangelo. Coleman has since reprised his role in the 2012 Nickelodeon show, while other actors have taken on Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael.
Here’s every Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles voice actor to date, including their most famous roles.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles voice actors
We don’t yet know who will be voicing Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael in TMNT: Mutant Mayhem, but we do know that child star Brady Noon has been cast as Raphael. Noon previously worked with producer Seth Rogen on the animated series Hilarity, in which he voiced various characters.
Rogen has said that the new game is “inspired by the classic N64 game”, which was itself an adaptation of the original cartoon series. It’s possible that Noon’s characterisation will be similar to the original Raphael, but it’s also possible that the game’s creative direction will allow for a fresh interpretation.
In the live-action movies, Leonardo has been played by Jason Biggs, Seth Green, Johnny Knoxville, and Brian Tochi. Donatello was voiced by Cam Clarke, while his brother Michelangelo was voiced by Mitchell Whitfield. Leonardo has been voiced by Alan Ritchson and Noel Fisher, while Donatello was voiced by Jeremy Howard and Robbie Rist.
These actors have lent their voice talents to video games before, including the Turtles games. Ritchson has played Leonardo in the two most recent TMNT games, while Green was the voice of Splinter in the Mirage game. Howard was the voice of Leonardo in the 1989 NES game, while Fisher was the voice of both Leonardo and Shredder in the 2012 game.
There have also been numerous live-action series, with actors such as Brandon Mychal Smith voicing Michelangelo in the 2012 show, and Cam Clarke reprising his role as Donatello. Nolan North has also voiced Leonardo in the 2007 TMNT show.
With each actor bringing their own interpretation to the beloved character, it’s easy to see the appeal of the Turtles across different mediums. With the new TMNT project on the horizon, we’re excited to see what fresh faces will be bringing these iconic characters to life.
And let’s not forget the Turtles themselves, as the ninja turtles themselves are an important part of the franchise’s appeal. In fact, this enduring appeal is partly thanks to the talented actors who have brought the Turtles to life.
Now that you know all the TMNT voice actors, you’ll recognise many of them from their other projects. From comedies to animated shows, and even some live-action series, these actors have diverse backgrounds and have appeared in popular franchises like Marvel and DC. Who knows, maybe one day we’ll see a Turtles game with these actors lending their voices to their most beloved characters.
