Hot off the success of the first LEGO Movie, the studio went ahead and started to begin something of a cinematic universe by making other LEGO based films. One of the offshoots from the first was The LEGO Batman Movie, which is out now, and in September we will have The LEGO NINJAGO Movie, which will be revolving around a group of ninjas against Garmadon.
In this big-screen NINJAGO adventure, the battle for NINJAGO City calls to action young Master Builder Lloyd, aka the Green Ninja, along with his friends, who are all secret ninja warriors. Led by Master Wu, as wise-cracking as he is wise, they must defeat evil warlord Garmadon, The Worst Guy Ever, who also happens to be Lloyd’s dad. Pitting mech against mech and father against son, the epic showdown will test this fierce but undisciplined team of modern-day ninjas who must learn to check their egos and pull together to unleash their inner power of Spinjitzu.
The LEGO NINJAGO Movie stars Dave Franco as Lloyd, Justin Theroux as Garmadon, Fred Armisen voicing Cole, Abbi Jacobson as Nya, Olivia Munn as Lloyd's mom, Koko, Kumail Nanjiani as Nya, Michael Peña as Kai, Zach Woods voicing Zane, and the legendary Jackie Chan as Master Wu.
It will be produced by Dan Lin, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller and Roy Lee along with Maryann Garger, and executive producing by John Powers Middleton, Seth Grahame-Smith, Chris McKay, Jill Wilfert, and Keith Malone. The script was written by Hilary Winston & Bob Logan & Paul Fisher, story by Kevin Hageman & Dan Hageman and Hilary Winston & Bob Logan & Paul Fisher.
The film is slated to open nationwide on September 22, 2017.
