Power Rangers insider Jinsakuu recently shared some interesting details regarding the new series, sharing what appears to be an early script from Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz, who are the showrunners on the upcoming series. In addition to the opening scene of the series, Jinsakuu also revealed that from the other pages he’s seen, the Rangers in this series are not the ones from the original show, meaning it’s not Jason, Trini, Zack, Billy, or Kim. This is apparently a new group of Rangers, but there’s an interesting twist.
While he can’t confirm that the suits are Mighty Morphin, he does say that the powers for the new Rangers seem to be passed down from a previous Ranger team. The colors of those Rangers are Red, Blue, Black, Pink, and Yellow, which could indicate that the powers the new Rangers now have were passed down from the original Mighty Morphin Rangers. Other notes included that the series is set in high school, and that the villain appears to be female, though they aren’t mentioned by name.
The Power Rangers Reboot Might Reestablish The Franchise In A Meta Way
In a separate tweet, Jinsakuu shared what appears to be an early synopsis of the series, and it suggests that the series is going to approach establishing the franchise again in a somewhat meta way. The synopsis reads, “When a small town is rocked by a series of bizarre time anomalies, people vanishing, memories changing, and fragments of futuristic tech appearing, a group of misfits and outsiders are drawn to the center of it all.” Another snippet then says, “They are chosen to become the first Power Rangers team in decades. But the world doesn’t remember the Rangers ever existed.”
