Also Known As: LEGO NINJAGO: O Filme The plot will diverge from the TV series. Spun-off from The Lego Movie (2014) Performed by Taylor Swift See more »Fans love to talk about how many Marvel or DC films come out each year, but very few acknowledge there are two Lego movies coming out this year. The first, The Lego Batman Movie, is out this week. The second, The Lego Ninjago Movie, is out September 22, and some revealing new images were just released. USA Today revealed the new images, which include the main heroes of the film (above) as well as its villain (below).For the heroes, from left to right there’s Kai (Michael Pena), Nya (Abbi Jacobson), Jay (Kumail Nanjiani), Lloyd (Dave Franco), Zane (Zach Woods) and Cole (Fred Armisen). Lloyd, in the green, is the star of Ninjago. He’s the son of the character in the this photo, Lord Garmadon (Justin Theroux). That battle between son and father is the crux of the film. “It’s about a son having to live with this father who’s a threat to Lego-manity (but) more about the son’s journey of forgiving him and learning to accept him for who he is,” Theroux told USA Today.
Lloyd will do that with the help of Master Wu, voiced by Jackie Chan and revealed here.The timing of these images is almost certainly because the first trailer will be attached to Lego Batman later this week, which means it’ll be online before that. That should give us a good idea how Ninjago will differ from the original Lego Movie and Lego Batman. Though, spoiler alert, it’ll be with ninjas, giant monsters, martial arts and more. The Lego Ninjago Movie opens September 23.‘The LEGO Ninjago Movie’ Trailer Tease & Photos: These LEGO Ninjas Break Bricks All the Time [UPDATED]Posted on Tuesday, February 7th, 2017 by Ethan AndertonThis week brings The LEGO Batman Movie to theaters, but it’s not the only spin-off from The LEGO Movie we can look forward to before The LEGO Movie Sequel arrives in 2019 (which just got a new director). There’s also The LEGO Ninjago Movie, and our first look at the animated martial arts flick has just arrived.The first LEGO Ninjago Movie photos have just arrived, showing off the team of teenage ninja heroes voiced by Dave Franco, Michael Pena, Zach Woods, Fred Armisen, Kumail Nanjiani and Abbi Jacobson.
We also get a first look at the villain voiced by Justin Theroux, and a new look at the master voiced by Jackie Chan. Check out The LEGO Ninjago Movie photos after the jump.UPDATE: We have a LEGO Ninjago Movie trailer tease which you can also watch below. Here are the first LEGO Ninjago Movie photos released by USA Today: UPDATE: And here’s the trailer tease.The ninja team is led by Lloyd, a kid who seems to be unremarkable, but then becomes the masked Green Ninja of the Ninjago superteam (seen unmasked but still wearing green in the team photo above). He’s looking to protect his home, along with a team that includes (from left) the ninjas Kai (Michael Peña), Nya (Abbi Jacobson), Jay (Kumail Nanjiani), a robot named Zane (Zach Woods) and Cole (Fred Armisen).The villain that they’ll have to face off with is Lord Garmadon (Justin Theroux), who just so happens to be Lloyd’s father. He has four-arms and a sociopathic nature that makes him a pretty awful father. Theroux says, “I think he’s suffered a series of slights and cuts over the course of his life when people question his narcissism, so it’s made him more and more evil as a result.”
