New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie Character Descriptions and Set Photos

The Michael Bay-produced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie hits theaters next month, which means the promotional campaign is ramping up to convince fans to give Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael and Leonardo another chance. Some new character profiles introduce us further to the four heroes in the film.

The TMNT Nickelodeon website (via Comic Book Movie) has been updated with full character bios for each turtle, along with some shots of the turtles' lair in the movie. Check it out here.

In other news, Collider recently saw some footage from the movie and posted the following report:

"It's 2014, it's New York City, there's a lot of crime in the city and Shredder, the leader of the Foot Clan, they are responsible for all the crime.  The movie opens, Megan Fox who plays April O'Neil, she is investigating a crime that has happened at the docks at the Brooklyn Navy Yards, and you think she's this, you know, journalist and then you see the trail who is her cameraman and he yells at her and says, 'April, we've gotta go.  We've gotta get to work!'  And then you cut and you realize that April O'Neil is a lifestyle reporter who wants to be a journalist."

"She is covering a gala that we shot - you guys are all from New York so we can say our locations, at Cipriani's - and Eric Sachs who's played by William Fichtner is giving this big speech, and Eric Sachs and April O'Neil's father worked together 15 years ago."

"This is the scene right after the speech Eric Sachs has given that really inspires April to really try and work harder at her reporting because she just doesn't want to do the lifestyle stuff.  She really wants to be a journalist."
