The live-action Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie at Lionsgate was in development for quite a while before the studio selected Dean Israelite (Project Almanac) to direct. However, Lionsgate apparently listened to a pitch from an unnamed director before giving Israelite the job who hired Alex Ruiz and Gregory Semkow to produce some concept art. Here's what the vision for the live-action reboot from the 'mystery' director looks like. Whether Israelite will deliver something similar remains to be seen.





The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers reboot from Lionsgate will be directed by Israelite from a script penned by Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz (Thor, X-Men: First Class, Star Trek Beyond). The film will star Dacre Montgomery, Ludi Lin, R.J.Cyler, Naomi Scott and Becky Gomez. The reboot is currently scheduled to hit theaters on March 24, 2017.

What the hell did I just look at?! Reminds me of a certain Michael Bay franchise that tried to be successful based on visuals alone...

Looks so so. Did they forget it's a kids show though? What's with the nostalgic adult reboots of kids stuff?

@Havenless - @killadeathray is right. 'Cue' would be the proper spelling in this sense.

So when they morph do they get like powers or something, or do they just learn how to fight?

Looks cool generically but I don't like it for Power Rangers. Trying waaaaaaaaaay to hard to make Alpha look cool. Took all the whimsy out of his design. We need dat whimsy, yo!

Moving on, why has Rita lost her awesome dress and Madonna-like pointy boobs? Why is she now in a catsuit?

Finally, the monster in the first picture is just wrong to me. That looks like Pacific Rim. Keep giant alien monsters in humanoid shape as much as possible. That is much more Power Rangers and much less PacRim/Godzilla.

This is concept art from a REJECTED pitch from a director who didn't get the job.
