April O'Neil appears in the 2014 film reboot Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles played by Megan Fox . She is a "Lifestyle Reporter" for Channel 6 news.

April was born on May 16, 1986. As a child, her father used the Ninja Turtles and Splinter as test subjects for his mutagen experiments, with April treating them as her pets, feeding them pizza when they were little. After her father destroyed his lab, she placed the Turtles and Splinter near a sewer grate.

As an adult, she worked in journalism at Channel 6, but felt that her talents were under-utilized reporting on relative puff pieces such as a new sports movement. While trying to follow up on an attempted story of stolen chemicals from a docking port, she first witnessed the Turtles active as vigilantes, later finding them when they thwarted a Foot Clan attempt to take hostages in a subway station. After hearing their names, she realized their ties to her father's work, but revealed the truth to Eric Sacks before the Turtles and Splinter could warn her of his real agenda.
