A Powers Rangers Sequel is Officially Morphin’ in Development

It’s early. Like, pre-production stage early but can I talk my shit again?!? Power Rangers looks like it’s gearing up for the part two most thought would never happen. The first movie did decent at the box office, raking in $142 million, but in today’s market that’s nothing to be proud about unless the movie cost less than $50 mill to make. Then there’s the whole marketing budget to take into account, so yeah, not the greatest position to be in when you’re allegedly trying to start a seven movie franchise. With all that said, there was still room for Hasbro to make some dough. DVD sales were a bigger hit than expected, and then there’s the merchandise angle that these superhero films always have in their back pocket. You wouldn’t believe the amount of Power Ranger action figures that were sold since 2017!

Flash forward to this summer and we got ourselves a sequel. Or at least a sequel in the works. Here’s what Hasbro had to say about the potential of this happening: “We see tremendous potential for the Power Rangers franchise around our entire brand blueprint, including feature films. We have nothing specific to announce at this time, but please stay tuned for future news and updates around the Power Rangers brand.” We need teenagers with attitude! The kids who played Jason, Billy, Zack, Kimberly and Trini all have seen their stardom take off since last summer and it wouldn’t hurt ticket sales to reel that tantalizing talent back in for another hoorah.
