The Power Rangers suit up as their new costumes are revealed for the upcoming film.
It was recently revealed what actress Elizabeth Banks would look like as Rita Repulsa in the upcoming Power Rangers reboot (can be seen here and here) but now fans can look at the Rangers themselves! Playing the Rangers are "Becky G as Yellow Ranger Trini, Ludi Lin as Black Ranger Zack, Dacre Montgomery as Red Ranger Jason, Naomi Scott as Pink Ranger Kimberly, and RJ Cyler as Blue Ranger Billy".
Production Designer Andrew Menzies spoke about the new design and look of the Power Rangers' suits by stating:
"“It’s tricky finding a new language for a superhero costume. Ours is an alien costume that grows on them, that’s not man-made. You can’t win everyone over, but we are trying to appeal to a more mature audience and gain new fans.”"I'm not completely sold on the new costumes just yet but I do not think they are terrible. I want to see them in action to really get an idea of how they will look in the film. That said, they look a little busy (but that opinion may fade as I get used to them) but the glaring thing to me that I do not like is the breast plates on the Yellow and Pink Rangers suits. Literally breasts plates. There is no reason for armor to accent the girls' chests like that. Just looks wrong. If they didn't want to use form fitting lycra then they shouldn't make lycra-esque armor. But that is just my opinion.
What do you think of the new look for the Power Rangers? Will you be checking out this film when it hits theaters?
Entertainment Weekly also released a great photo of the cast out of costume that you should check out and in case you missed it, here is the new logo for the film.
