Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Quick, someone order a pizza! Warner Bros. Animation and Nickelodeon have unleashed a trailer for BATMAN VS. TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, a feature animated film based on the DC cross-over comic of the same name written by James Tunion IV with art by Freddie Williams III. Helmed by Jake Castorena with a script penned by Marly Halpern-Graser, the film sees the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in hot pursuit of Shredder, who's found his way to Gotham City. Before long, the classic villain who longs to dine on turtle soup teams up with Ra’s al Ghul and other other members of the Dark Knight’s rogues’ gallery to enact an insidious plot. Upon their arrival in Gotham, the Fab Four come face-to-cowl with a rumored "supernatural Bat creature," who ultimately turns out to be The World's Greatest Detective himself, Batman.
