TMNT is a 2007 American computer-animated action film based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) franchise. The film is the fourth and final installment in the original film series. It was the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film made with computer-generated imagery (CGI), created by Imagi Animation Studios, as well as the first feature film in the franchise in 14 years. Written and directed by Kevin Munroe, the film features the voice talents of James Arnold Taylor, Nolan North, Chris Evans, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kevin Smith, Patrick Stewart, Zhang Ziyi and Laurence Fishburne (who provides narration). It was the last film that Mako Iwamats made before his death and was co-produced by the franchise's co-creator Peter Laird for Warner Bros. Pictures. Chronologically, the plot of TMNT takes place after the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live-action film trilogy.[4][5] The film sees the four Turtles (Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo) grow apart after their final defeat of the Shredder, when strange things are happening in New York City as ancient creatures threaten the world and the Turtles must reunite to save it.
