October 8, 20159 yr Author I hope they are new characters rather than telling the same story as before. Not sure on this girl as I've never heard of her before.
October 21, 20159 yr Everyone meet Dacre Montgomery, the RED RANGER! He's a newbie (as in, not done much). http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMjQ0MzQwMzUxN15BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNzY5OTc5NjE@._V1_UX214_CR0,0,214,317_AL_.jpg Jason's Character Bio (via Collider) for Power Rangers 2017: 17 years old, the makings of someone or something great if he would just get out of his own way. Jason was a legend of this town—a freshman quarterback with the skills to take him all the way. People knew his name. Children wore his jersey. Until, one night Jason wrapped his car around a pole and busted out his knee. Everything Jason was going to become ended in an instant. And with it, he lost himself. When we meet him at the start of the film, he’s a kid in need of redemption. By the end, he’ll be leading this disparate group of teens to shed their individual baggage and find who they truly are.LOVING these inspired/new actor choices. Very excited to see what they do with the characters!
October 22, 20159 yr We have a Black Ranger now too! Ludi Lin! http://photos.modelmayhem.com/photos/120419/18/4f90bcd330726.jpg
December 17, 20159 yr We have a date: 24th March 2017! I'm looking forward to this car crash, so, SO much!
February 2, 20169 yr Author Elizabeth Banks is cast for Rita Repulsa! Omg! This makes it even more amazing! She is perfect for Rita!
February 2, 20169 yr Haha I literally came straight to this thread after replying to your tweet Joe. This is amazing casting. I can't believe this movie is still a year away. I want to relive my childhood NOW! I wonder what they'll do with the theme song? I've no shame in saying the original version they released as a single was an absolute bop.
February 2, 20169 yr I would never have thought of Elizabeth Banks myself, but I'm racking my brain and I honestly can't think of anyone I'd think was a better casting choice, so we'll done casting directors!
April 19, 20169 yr http://img2-3.timeinc.net/people/i/2016/news/160502/elizabeth-banks-2-435.jpg YESSSSS! I love how it's extremely different to what we know of Rita. I like the fact she's "reptilian green"! *.* She looks like she's being casted as Katy Perry's double for one of her new music videos or something, though! :lol:
April 19, 20169 yr Author I really love it. For people who can't see beyond the original six rangers (season 1) of a show that has run for over 20 years. They will hate this, and will claim they won't go and see this movie, however they would need to get out of their parents basement to go and see it, so it wouldn't happen anyway.
May 5, 20169 yr http://www.ew.com/sites/default/files/i/2016/05/04/prangers.jpg Wasn't sure at first, but I'm really coming round to them! I LOVE the helmets and how they're very similar to the original MMPR helmets <3
May 7, 20169 yr They look a little too Iron Man for my liking. The blue ranger looks like an alien! That's deliberate. They revealed in an interview that the suits are alien tech and grow on the body. They're not man made. I like them a lot. My only issue is (and it's more of annoyance at not being able to spoil it for myself) is that it's impossible to determine the animal each suit is for from the helmets. The original helmets were pretty clear in defining the triceratops, mastadon etc but these helmets all look fairly similar and non-specific. Have they revealed anywhere whether or not they're using the original dinosaurs or whether they're going in a completely new direction? There are definite similarities to other movies in those suits though. The red ranger looks like an Iron Man invention and the black ranger looks like Robocop from the 2014 remake. I don't mind that though - the black ranger actually looks amazing in that photo. So excited for this. I cannot wait for our first look at the zords. Edited May 7, 20169 yr by PaulM1983
May 7, 20169 yr Author From the concept art I saw of the zords, pink is still pterodactyl. I think because those suits look more CGI it's hard to pick out the dinosaurs other than on red and pink. From zoomed in pics I've seen elsewhere the other three Rangers helmets are more subtle.

Do they look like the original zords or have they amped it up?
