Mighty Morphin Power Rangers assembles usual comic-book movie team
The upcoming expansion of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers brand with a “re-envisioning”—one that, echoing the show’s original format, splices borrowed characters with the enhanced effects of ’90s nostalgia—has found its producer and writers. Like a team of teenagers with attitude who are conscripted to join forces and wrangle all manner of genre tropes, producer Roberto Orci and writers Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz have been assembled to develop the new Power Rangers movie, tasked once more with using their individual franchise rebooting skills to pilot the giant dinosaur machine of faded intellectual property.
