After Power Rangers had the gritty and grounded remake through what is known now as the Unauthorized NSFW Bootleg Power/Rangers, the studios are finally moving forward with the official movie of their own. Thus, besides some new casting announcements, they have also revealed some plot details concerning the movie, as well as who will be the main villain.

From what we know until now, this will be no reboot of the original TV series/franchise of films. Instead, it will be what is called a semi-continuation of Power Rangers Dino Charge, which had the first season released this year.

So far, from what we know, Lionsgate and Saban intend to start the production of the movie in early 2016. Screenwriters Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz (Thor and X-Men: First Class) have already finished the script, reportedly. Also, Dean Israelite (Project Almanac) is onboard to direct. The casting is well underway, for young actors to portray the teenagers with an attitude: Jason, the Red Ranger, Kimberly the Pink Ranger, Zack the Black Ranger, Trini the Yellow Ranger, and Billy the Blue Ranger.
