Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ original April O’Neill hasn’t aged a day in 32 years
Thirty years later, an actress who acted in one of the biggest movies of the 1990s is hardly older.
When Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was launched in 1990, movie was a box office success and one of its primary characters won over fans.
As the turtle’s first human companion, April O’Neill, played by Judith Hoag, played a crucial part in the movie.
Judith was replaced by Paige Turco in the sequels, even though the original movie was a big success.
Even though the star is 61 years old, she still looks young.
She still has a devoted following of fans who follow her acting career and frequently plead for the star to make a comeback to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies because of her iconic auburn hair.
Judith has developed a successful career in TV and movies outside of her role as April O’Neill.
Her most well-known parts were Denise in Armageddon, Molly in Cadillac Man, and Gwen Piper in Halloweentown.
She most recently starred as Stephanie Quinn in The Magicians, Jennifer Sinclair in Finding You, and Ruby in Laugh Love Karaoke.
It’s interesting to note that Judith was scheduled to make a cameo appearance in the 2016 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
She would have appeared in the brief sequence with new April O’Neill actress Megan Fox, but sadly, it was removed.
Fans and those who worked on the original have called for Judith to return, even if she did not make it into the most recent reincarnation.

Tom Waltz, the writer of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, has stated that he hopes to see the legacy cast member reprise her role as April O’Neill in the next Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, The Last Ronin.
“My dream is for the beautiful and talented Judith Hoag to be a part of something we do in other media for THE LAST RONIN,” he said in a recent interview with Screen Rant.
