[LEONARDO]
Male, 13-16, any ethnicity. The team leader. Leo is strictly business, all killer no filler- except when he's boasting and describing himself with dumb phrases like "all killer no filler." He cares about keeping the "team" on mission, and tells himself that his brothers would be lost without him. He's not the strongest(Raph), or the smartest(Donnie), or the funniest(Mikey), but he's the hardest working turtle boy and he's proud of it. His brothers can get annoyed by his do-gooder attitude and the lectures that come with it, even when they know he's right. Leo's biggest fear is his brothers realizing
that he needs them more than they need him. (V.O.)...LEAD
[RAPHAEL]
Male, 13-16, any ethnicity. The hot head. Raph likes to break s**t. Whether it's with his fists, or someone else's fists as he throws them through a glass window. Raph tends to react emotionally
when he's overwhelmed, but he's actually super self aware and working on it. With his hands in his pockets, crossed arms, and sullen face, he can come across as a little brooding. But beneath his
impenetrable exterior is a soft, sensitive turtle boy who's just looking for someone to open up to. Raph, who would hate ANY authority figure, resents Leo's leadership and thinks he should be in charge. His
secret shame? He knows deep down he wouldn't know how to lead the team if it ever came to it. (V.O.)...LEAD
[MICHELANGELO]
Male, 13-16, any ethnicity. The goofball. With rare
exception- takes nothing seriously. It could come across as aloofness, or idiocy, but it actually comes from a place of wisdom and self confidence. (knowing himself?) Mikey has his priorities in order, and at the top of the list in enjoying life and living in the present. He loves people and is endlessly curious, which leads to him having long
conversations with complete strangers. He's that friend you tell your entire life story within minutes of meeting. He might not be good at martial arts training, or waking up on time, or even hygiene, but he's an endless well of positivity that his brothers often take for granted. Mikey gets teased the most by his brothers, and even though he
always laughs it off. Deep down it gets to him. (V.O.)...LEAD
[DONATELLO]
Male, 13-16, any ethnicity. The intellectual. Feels like
he's Matt Damon in Goodwill Hunting. He is made fun of by his brothers for being academic. They
acknowledge his smarts are usefulness but don't appreciate it as much as he feels he deserves. His intelligence has its downsides though. Sometimes his intellectual self-assuredness can come across as arrogance, and his extreme pragmatism sometimes reads as coldness. It's not that he doesn't care, his brain is just thinking so many steps about such complicated stuff that he often finds himseif paralyzed with indecision. He can talk himself into something just as easily as he can talk himself out. Donnie knows he's smart, but his secret fear he'd never admit outloud is that if he was ever around people at his level, he worries he wouldn't be able to keep up. And if he's not as smart as he thought... what is he?
(V.O.)...LEAD
