Check out a first look at the new Power Rangers movie costumes below which is described as “translucent extraterrestrial armor that crystallizes around their bodies.”
“The show was about kids coming of age, about metamorphosis,” director Dean Israelite told EW.com. “These suits needed to feel like they were catalyzed by these kids and their energy, their spirit.”
“It’s tricky finding a new language for a superhero costume,” production designer Andrew Menzies said. “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.”
“It’s the coolest costume ever,” Becky G, the Yellow Ranger, added. “I’m gonna wear it for Halloween for, like, five years.”
“Power Rangers” has a March 24, 2017 release starring Becky G as Trini, the Yellow Ranger; RJ Cyler as Billy, the Blue Ranger; Naomi Scott as Kimberly, the Pink Ranger; Ludi Lin as Zack, the Black Ranger; Dacre Montgomery as Jason, the Red Ranger, and Elizabeth Banks stars as the villain, Rita Repulsa.
