Lena Headey Guest Stars in Nickelodeon Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Half-Hour Special Premiering Saturday, Nov. 17, at 9:30 a.m. (ET/PT)
Raph, Leo, Donnie and Mikey meet a new foe voiced by guest star Lena Headey (Game of Thrones) in a brand-new episode of Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, premiering Saturday, Nov. 17, at 9:30 a.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon. In the half-hour special, “Bug Busters,” Headey lends her voice as Big Mama, a gigantic spider yokai who can shoot webs and disguise herself to look like a human. As a prim and proper mob boss, she runs the Hidden City fight ring and doesn’t let anyone get in her way.
Big Mama faces off against the villainous Baron Draxum, voiced by WWE superstar John Cena, as he attempts to disrupt Big Mama’s plan and the Turtles look for a way to eliminate New York City’s oozesquito problem.
