It's a Power Ranger world and we're all just living in it. 

Even though production on Lionsgate's upcoming Power Rangers reboot has yet to wrap, the studio must really like what they've seen so far from the Dean Israelite-directed film as during a conference call earlier today, Lionsgate 
CEO Jon Feltheimerafter sharing his enthusiasm for the upcoming project: "We are really, really excited about the ‘Power Rangers’ movie," revealed that he potentially envisions a future where "We could see doing five or six or seven." He also added that they were quite pleased with the positive reaction to the costume reveal.

Now, we all know how this turned out for LeBron James, former Miami Heat forward and current Cleveland Cavaliers flopper extraordinaire, who more or less guaranteed eight titles at his Miami welcome party back in 2010, but only delivered two before jetting off back to his mom's house. However, this could turn out better and there's plenty of reason to be optimistic. The Power Rangers franchise has already proven its ability to withstand the test of time as it remains wildly popular nearly twenty-five years after its initial launch in 1993 and there's certainly still a large market of fans worldwide, spanning multiple generations now, eager to see future installments based on the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers as well as see later iterations like Zeo, Turbo, In Space, Lost Galaxy, Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, etc. get their own adaptations.

Whether it all actually happens will be determined by how well the upcoming reboot is received and performs at the box office next March. The film stars Dacre Montgomery, Naomi Scott, RJ Cyler, Ludi Lin, and Becky Gomez as the five teenagers with attitudes and features Elizabeth Banks as the villainous Rita Repulsa.

Check out the latest set photos below featuring a suited up Red Ranger as he battles a couple guys in green screen suits, who are rumored to be depicting Rita Repulsa's band of Putty Patrollers, and head over to YVR Shoots for a lot more!







So, what do you guys think? Pretty cool, huh? Sound off with your thoughts below and don't forget to head over to YVR Shoots for more photos!

Saban's Power Rangers follows five ordinary high school kids who must become something extraordinary when they learn that their small town of Angel Grove – and the world – is on the verge of being obliterated by an alien threat. Chosen by destiny, our heroes quickly discover that they are the only ones who can save the planet. But to do so they will have to overcome their real-life issues and band together as the Power Rangers before it is too late.

Director: Dean Israelite
Dacre Montgomery as Jason Lee Scott, the Red Ranger
Naomi Scott as Kimberly Hart, the Pink Ranger
Ludi Lin as Zack Taylor, the Black Ranger
RJ Cyler as Billy Cranston, the Blue Ranger
Becky Gomez as Trini Kwan, the Yellow Ranger

David Denman as Sam Scott
Anjali Jay as Maddy Hart

@incredibleTalk - It really does depend on your age. I watched the original series religiously when I was a kid, so I may see this movie, depending on how it looks.

@MattBellissimo - I watched it as a kid too... Up until Power rangers in Space. But honestly, I'd be too ashamed to walk into the cinema to go see this (lol!) I may just have to take my nephew and pretend I'm really going for him to see it

I'm noticing a trend of them releasing official photos very shortly before they have to do outdoor shoots. Smart move, I think.
