Seth Rogen knew what kind of music he wanted to include on “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem”.
The Canadian actor chatted to ET Canada’s Carlos Bustamante about the upcoming flick, with the host mentioning he got a “’90s hip hop” vibe music-wise from the film, just from watching the trailer.
Bustamante questioned whether there was a track from the ’90s that Rogen has on repeat all the time, to which he responded, “Oh so much. I listen to a lot of A Tribe Called Quest. I think, assuming the MPAA cleared it, there’s an Ol’ Dirty Bastard song in this movie, which is hilarious.
“I mean, I still listen to a lot of the music that’s in this movie, and that’s a lot of the reason that a lot of it’s in the movie… it’s a lot of songs that me and Jeff Rowe, the director, ourselves listen to.”
Elsewhere in the chat, Rogen — who is also a producer on the film — revealed he got the chance to pick which character he wanted to play in the movie.
Rogen admitted, “I chose Bebop because I like Bebop.”

The star told Bustamante, “He’s cool. He’s got a nipple ring, he’s got cool sunglasses and a mohawk. Like, how do you beat that?”
As the host joked “he basically is just like you,” Rogen responded, “It’s what I wish I could be, but I’m too afraid.”
Rogen stars alongside the likes of Paul Rudd, John Cena, Rose Byrne, Jackie Chan, Ayo Edebiri, Natasia Demetriou and more in the flick.
