Doesn't look like April to me.

Looks like Megan Fox with dark red hair.

You don't say. Megan Fox looks like Megan Fox? What a great observation.

You rather her wear a yellow jump suit? Yeah that's so 2013. She looks great. Not to sexed up. Just looks like a regular channel 6 reporter to me. I like her look a lot.

The wardrobe doesn't bother me. It looks like something a white twenty something new york woman would wear on her day off. What bothers me is the lackluster red hair. I guess the red hair isn't a must, but it looks like a lazy effort to make it reddish.

The problem is its dark red to the point where you still see her black streaks.

Her hair should be more orange like a ginger.

Good luck getting that color starting from black.

In the article it's funny how all the comments are saying how ugly she looks. At least 3 posters call her a tranny and say her lips were ruined by plastic surgery.

Looks like Megan Fox being casted for sex appeal backfired.

Well this is sort of a relief. I was worried that they were going to over sexualize Fox, but from these pictures she's looking pretty modest so I'm not even going to be nit picky with the hair or anything.

There is something off with her face in those pictures. I can't figure what it is though, I just assume its her lips since everyone in the comment section said she had plastic surgery there. I don't follow celebrity plastic surgery news so I have no idea if that's true or not, but I don't really care either.

April is supposed to be a cute girl next door type of character, she has never been portray as some sexy go getter.

Any well known actress is going to look like that actress made up differently. Its whether they act well enough for us to suspend our disbelief so we stop thinking its Megan Fox.

April has never been consistent from version to version. Even in the original Mirage comic she had a vastly different look and personality from issue to issue in the first year. I think April is one of those characters that they can get away with reintepreting.

Those pictures don't really give much away but I like her "look" here, if this is indicative of how she'll look during most of the movie. While a glammed up April wouldn't have been unwelcome this gives off the vibe that she's a normal woman who gets pulled into the bizarre TMNT world...and looks like Megan Fox.

She's only really been portrayed as the 'girl next door' twice. The 2k3 show and the current show. And even in 2k3 it's debatable.

Unless you'd honestly describe the OT April as a girl next door.

Considering OT April barely cared about relationships and was always shown to be sweet and understanding rather than some rude sexy bitch, I'd say so. She came across as a passionate reporter but would never hesitate to help someone.

Also Mirage April is hideous but that goes without saying.

The OT April was a 30 something reporter that cared mostly about her job and had ginormous cleavage on display. That sounds more like the 'sexy go-getter' you don't want.

You have the weirdest hang-ups and don't seem to understand half of the things you whine about.

That's why you go with a lighter color as an in-between.

Wish they would have at least given her a yellow jacket or something.

She just looks like Megan Fox in a regular attire. Like others said, doesn's exactly scream APRIL to me. I know it my sound like a trivial critique, but April's yellow like Donnie is purple and Raph is red.

But... on the other hand, if Bay is working directly with Laird, it's no wonder they went for a more 2k3 look. My problem with it is it's just too generic.


Oh well... guess that's done so no point rambling. Hope at least she puts up a good act as April.

The red hair isn't a big deal to me.

I gotta agree with some comments. She looks weird and I really think its her lips. To me ALMOST doesn't even look like Megan Fox.
