Actor Patrick Stewart has died at 86. Many people knew him as Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek and Professor Charles Xavier in X-Men. In 2007, he also gave his voice to a bad character in TMNT, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film.
Kevin Munroe directed the film. Stewart played Max Winters, a businessman with an army of very old monsters. The film introduced this character. He did not come from the Turtles’ comic books.
The story starts after the Turtles beat their enemy Shredder. The brothers are no longer close, and their teacher Splinter tries to keep the family together. Strange things start happening in New York City. The Turtles must become close again to fight Winters’ monsters.
Winters has a long past. His name was once Yaotl, and he led an army. He wanted to rule the world and live forever. He tried to use a special door for this: it opens once every 3,000 years. Later, he saw life without an end as something bad, not good. Chris Evans also gave his voice to Casey Jones in the film.
