The first image of 2017’s team of cinematic teenagers with attitude is online! This gives us a great look at the new Movie Rangers in civilian dress.
Movie director Dean Israelite offers some comments about the (sadly still-unseen) hero suits for this film:
““We’ve really pushed ourselves to make them feel different from any other superhero costume that’s out there. One key that’s different to the Power Rangers suits is that they’re not really suits that people get into. They’re suits that morph onto our kids, so they already have this almost metaphysical quality to them.”
Israel also had this to say about the films’ villain, played by Elizabeth Banks:
“It’s very exciting that we got [Banks], and I think what she loves is the opportunity to really embrace the insanity and deliciousness of Rita Repulsa in terms of how weird and wonderful that character was, and really dive into and consume that character. You should always be off-balance when you’re watching her. Is she insane? Is she totally calculated? Does she know what she’s doing? Elizabeth can toe that line really well.”
Power Rangers premieres in theaters on March 27, 2017! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this exciting project!

Not much info that we haven't heard, but a picture is worth 1000 words...
I really like this bit about Elizabeth Banks playing Rita:
“It’s very exciting that we got [Banks], and I think what she loves is the opportunity to really embrace the insanity and deliciousness of Rita Repulsa in terms of how weird and wonderful that character was, and really dive into and consume that character,” Israelite explained. “You should always be off-balance when you’re watching her. Is she insane? Is she totally calculated? Does she know what she’s doing? Elizabeth can toe that line really well.”
Looks fine I guess. Billy's jacket is...meh at most and honestly I couldn't tell if he was Billy. Hopes this ends up good.
It's very cool we now have a cast photo. I like it. Very up dated.
Is it bad that I'm disappointed that they aren't wearing their ranger colors? Other than that though they all look pretty good, can't wait to see the suits.
Of course the colors are muted. Heaven forbid Hollywood would have bright colors in anything they made these days. The cast photo looks like it's advertising L.L. Bean than Power Rangers.
This is gonna be good.
