All about the film's trailer
Netflix dropped the official trailer for Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie last month and it featured the turtles flaunting their mystical powers while stopping a speeding car chase. Casey Jones warns turtles that the Earth will be decimated by an alien race known as the Krang. He has been sent to the past to help them stop the impending attack and save the world before it's too late.
However, the Krang have already been summoned, and something causes the turtles to lose their magical abilities all at once. With the fate of the planet in their hands, the turtles and their group of warriors will have to fight the odds to defeat the Krang and save the world.
Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie is a continuation of the TV series as the film's plot follows Leonardo who is forced to lead his brothers to save the world from the Krang. Casey Jones is also back, but this time as a student of the turtles of the future and grandson of the turtles' nemesis-turned-ally Cassandra Jones.
Stream Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie from Friday, August 5 on Netflix.
