A reboot of the iconic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, with a grittier, more hard-edged tone matching that of the initial 1990 live-action film adaptation from director Steve Barron, the 2003 animated 4Kids television series, and particularly that of Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird's original graphic novels, which were a satire of Frank Miller's run on Marvel's Daredevil. A quartet of anthropomorphic teenaged turtles — noble leader-type Leonardo, the brooding and rage-prone Raphael, the technologically gifted Donatello, and the fun-loving Michelangelo — spend their days in the shadows, living comfortably in the sewers of New York alongside their adoptive father and martial arts instructor, a human-turned-mutated rat named Splinter. By night, they take to the streets dishing out justice towards New York's criminal underworld, during which they miraculously find human allies in computer programmer April O'Neil and hot-tempered vigilante Cassandra "Casey" Jones. But when the ruthless Shredder and his criminal ninja organization, the Foot Clan, arrive to spread chaos and destruction, it's up to the Turtles to put an end to their reign of terror.
