It Sounds Like Another POWER RANGERS Movie Is In The Works At Hasbro And Paramount Pictures
The 2017 Power Rangers movie was widely considered a disappointment but it seems as if the franchise still has a future on the big screen thanks to Hasbro and Paramount Pictures' ongoing relationship...
The last Power Rangers movie to hit the big screen was a total mess. It wasn't until the final act that the heroes showed up ready for a fight, while some awkward Krispy Kreme product placement was widely ridiculed (as was the attempt to give the Rangers a superhero origin story).
However, it now appears as if a reboot could be in the works because Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner has revealed in a financial call that the toy makers (who acquired the rights to the Powers Rangers last year) and Paramount Pictures are currently talking about a new movie. No further details were revealed but this partnership obviously makes perfect sense.
After all, Hasbro's collaboration with Paramount has resulted in $5 billion of box office earnings from the Transformers and G.I. Joe franchises, not to mention the increased toy sales those resulted in.
There have been rumblings about a new Power Rangers movie for a while now and a reboot definitely seems like the best route to head down. It is, however, possible that the original actors will return with redesigned uniforms as they were a mostly well-cast bunch and there's still time for the franchise to be fixed providing they avoid some of the mistakes made by the first movie.
