What's left behind the scenes
- Plans to film a sequel to "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" were announced two days after its release in 2014.
- Stephen Amell compared the role of Casey Jones to his role as Oliver Queen in the series "Arrow" (2012). "Casey Jones is somewhat reminiscent of Oliver Queen from the older comics," he said.
- Judith Hoag, who played a cameo role, played April O'Neil in the film "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (1990). She also appeared in "Armageddon" (1998) directed by Michael Bay.
- The motto on the battle van reads "Turtle Brothers" ("tartaruga" is Italian for "turtle"). In the animated series "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. New Adventures!" (2003), the motto "Tortuga Brothers" ("tortuga" is Spanish for "turtle") can be read on the second battle van.
- Professional Irish wrestler Sheamus (real name Stephen Farrelly) played the role of Rocksteady.
- The film was originally scheduled for release in 2017.

While Amell starred in the television series "Arrow" about a superhero from "DC Comics" (2012), Evans was involved in filming projects based on "Marvel Comics" (and others, but less frequently).
- Alan Ritchson (who plays Raphael) and Stephen Amell (who plays Casey Jones) previously starred together in the series "Real Boys" (2010-2011). Ritchson played a midfielder on the football team and one of the central characters there, while Amell played a defender, but only in the first season.

- This is the second comic book-based project in the careers of Brian Tee, following the film "The Wolverine" (James Mangold, 2013), and Stephen Amell, following the television series "Arrow" (2012).
- This is the sixth project based on comics in actor Brad Garrett's career, following the film «Casper» (Brad Silberling, 1995), «Tick Hero» (voice acting in the 1994-1996 animated series), «Superman» (voice acting in the 1996-2000 animated series), «Garfield» (Peter Hewitt, 2004), and «Asterix and the Vikings» (voice acting in the English dub of the 2006 animated feature film).

- Brad Garrett, who voices Krang, appeared in an episode of the television series «Monk» (2002), which starred Tony Shalhoub, whose voice is Splinter in «Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2».
- This is the fourth time in Brad Garrett's career that he has voiced a character in a film that combines live-action actors with computer graphics. He previously played this role voicing Fats in «Casper» (Brad Silberling, 1995), the Doberman Luca in «Garfield» (Peter Hewitt, 2004), and the Rottweiler named Riff-Raff in «Underdog» (Fredrik Du Chau, 2007).

- At the beginning of the credits, the viewer hears remixes of original music written for the franchise, and the song "Go Ninja Go" by American rapper Vanilla Ice.
- The license plate of the vehicle reads "Mirage 84". The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles first appeared in comics published by "Mirage" in 1984.
- The new battle van of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in this film exhibits characteristic features of its predecessors: - the second battle van from the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Fast Forward" 2003 animated series (used for surveillance and covert observation), - the van from the 2009 animated film "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Forever" (a converted garbage truck), - the van from the 2012 "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" animated series (with a cannon that shoots manhole covers).
- Casey Jones is shown for the first time without his traditional hairstyle (short hair on the sides and front, long in the back). Shredder is shown with a beard for the first time – he is usually clean-shaven.
- Bebop and Rocksteady (the men Shredder mutated into mutants) are depicted as they appear in the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" cartoon (1987-1996), with some details taken from the comics published by "IDW Publishing" (tattoos on both, and a nose ring for Bebop).
- During the Halloween parade, a person in a Bumblebee costume from the Transformers universe is shown. Megan Fox, producer Michael Bay, cinematographer Alan D. Purwin, and composer Steve Jablonsky all worked on the Transformers films.

- In the film, Baxter Stockman names his computer "O.M.N.S.S." (pronounced "OMNUS").

- Casey Jones serves in the police force. This is a tribute to the character known as Nobody, an ally of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles who was a police officer and became a superhero.
