            I grew up on the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers so when it was announced that they would be rebooting the series as a film franchise, I prayed that it would be great. The first trailer was good, but today the second trailer was released and it looks GREAT.

            The Power Rangers franchise has been around since 1993 and through 23 television series and 2 feature films, and in this new trailer, you see them paying homage to the original while also bringing it into modern day. In this preview, you see the title high-school students suit up for the first time to take on Rita Repulsa and her allies. We also get a first look at Bryan Cranston as Zordon and it looks terrific and Bill Hader’s Alpha 5 that looks way better in motion than the concept art made him look. I’m even more giddy about this film than I was prior because this trailer spoke more to fans of the original in my eyes than the other Chronicle-esque first trailer.

            Check out the second trailer for Power Rangers below! The movie stars Naomi Scott, Becky G., Ludi Lin, RJ Cyler, Dacre Montgomery, Elizabeth Banks, Bryan Cranston and Bill Hader. It opens in theaters everywhere on March 24^th.
