Leatherhead is one of the secondary antagonists turned protagonists of the 2023 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. They're a former member of Superfly's gang.
They are voiced by Rose Byrne, who also played Moira MacTaggert in X-Men: First Class and X-Men: Apocalypse.
Leatherhead are the sibling of the many mutant experiments rescued by Superfly. With nobody else to guide Wingnut and the others through life, Superfly raised the mutants on his own, becoming a father figure and elder brother to them. After Superfly and his found family attempted to make contact with humans and were treated like monsters, Superfly was convinced - and convinced his family - that humans were the real monsters, piling on the slaying of his father as additional evidence.
So Superfly and his crew of mutants went to build a machine that would mutate all of the world's animals and allow them to overpower and eliminate humanity. Superfly preferred to work under the radar most of the time and hire human thugs to steal things for him, but when that wouldn't suffice, his family would use their talents.
Four other mutants, the Ninja Turtles, investigate Superfly and his gang's robberies, and are welcomed into the family as "cousins" when Superfly realizes that Stockman's ooze made them what they are. The Turtles begin bonding with certain members of the crew.
Superfly then has the Turtles ride along with his crew to transport a piece of the assimilator back to their hideout near Staten Island.
•This version of Leatherhead are a non-binary character but the Novelization uses She/her, making this version of the character female.

•When Rose Byrne was chosen to do the voice of Leatherhead, Seth Rogen asked her to make her voice fully Australian, Byrne channeled her voice to the best of herself and thought of actor Eric Bana and her role as Leatherhead was a tribute to Eric Bana.
