Power Rangers 2016 Film Moved to January 2017

Posted on April 30, 2015 at 2:28 pm by Den-O under Power Rangers, Power Rangers Movie

We’ve been wondering for months when more updates on the production of the Power Rangers 2016 film reboot would be made public. Earlier in April some news finally trickled out with the reveal of director Dean Israelite helming the project. However today seems to bring more of a set back.

Thanks once again to The Wrap we have details about Lionsgate’s upcoming slate of films & their release dates. As of today we know that the Power Rangers 2016 Film originally slated for a July 22, 2016 release has officially been delayed to January 13, 2017. The change was seemingly made to move the film from a crowded summer 2016 filled with other top box office films.

Join our ongoing discussion of the Power Rangers 2017 Film about this film and the information we have so far for it by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation forums at the bottom of this post.

    The new film franchise will re-envision the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, a group of high school kids who are infused with unique and cool super powers but must harness and use those powers as a team if they have any hope of saving the world.

    Way too early to speculate, but hey, could be interesting.

    I...........don't know how I feel about this. I'll wait until it actually happens. I'm all for some kind of remake/reboot, because MMPR was all kinds of ridiculous.

    I hope they don't try to super modernize it with armored up suits and everything. Because I would consider that a sub genre shift. I want to see Power Rangers. Not Kamen Riders or Armored Heroes. Unless of course they actually ARE Kamen Riders or Armored Heroes.

    Either way, I'm still excited. Sort of. Probably one of those "Even if it's bad it's still good" things.

    I am beyond excited. A big budget production of Power Rangers is something I have always, always dreamed about. Besides the opportunity to get a good movie, there are tons of merchandising opportunities. Give us good toys BoA!

    Rampent/Baseless Speculation: "Oh man, we just had Morphin Madness. What if it's those five Rangers in this movie. It make NO sense but would be cool"

    Actaul Human thought applied: "It sounds like they might be rebooting MMPR based on the press release. Then again the press release is more for share holders than anyone else so who knows at this point."

    Sounds good to me. Lionsgate is smart to try to get in on the superhero movie game. And this is a good brand with a built in fan base. Even if it doesn't please the nerd world, I'm sure the kids and casual fans could enjoy it.

    Sounds irrational but I'm just sitting here wondering if for this major effort, BoJ could actually be the ones to design the toys this time? Or it could be a collaborative effort with BoA like Hasbro-Takara?

    I look forward to this solely to see how Power Rangers will go without Sentai footage to fall back on. Combine that with original toys and this could be quite exciting!

    Wait, so it's specifically a reboot of MMPR? Eh...
