Director Dean Israelite and his design team would modernise – or in this case, weird-up – the look of their loyal robot pal, Alpha 5 . IGN got their hands on the first image. Alpha 5 (who will be voiced in this incarnation by Bill Hader ), is the enthusiastic artificial intelligence known for outbursts including his trademark "ay-yi-yi-yi!". And from the looks of this, he's been at the hormone supplements. With Bryan Cranston voicing powerful, peaceful alien Zordon and Elizabeth Banks physically present as villain Rita Repulsa, the movie will find the Rangers battling Rita's evil schemes and defending the Earth while figuring out their own teenage issues.

EW scored the first image of the cast photo from the upcoming reboot of THE POWER RANGERS . The new cast — singer 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 — will don translucent extraterrestrial armor that crystallizes around their bodies. The sartorial update may look radical, but the outfits are visual throwbacks to the franchise’s long-running mythology. “The show was about kids coming of age, about metamorphosis,” director Dean Israelite (Project Almanac) says. “These suits needed to feel like they were catalyzed by these kids and their energy, their spirit.” Please Leave A Comment-

It’s time for Elizabeth Banks to conquer Earth — as Rita Repulsa , that is. The actress stars as the iconic monster-unleashing villain in the upcoming reboot of the small-screen franchise about five teens with attitude and abilities to round up alien menaces. Unlike her ’90s-era counterpart, Banks’ Rita sports lighter, sleeker headgear, including gold accents and a green rope entwined around her ponytail. “It’s definitely a modern and edgy re-imagining of the original Rita Repulsa,” Banks tells PEOPLE. “We wanted to give her a backstory that connects her to the new Rangers.” Even better: Banks gets to flex her evil-doing muscles in the role. What’s she most looking forward to? “Obviously, first, world domination,” she tells PEOPLE. “I’ve never played a villain before, let alone an alien warrior.” Power Rangers morphs into theaters March 24, 2017.

Elizabeth Banks is going bad. The actress has signed on to star as the villain in Power Rangers , Lionsgate’s big-screen take on the 1990s kids television show, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. Dean Israelite, who helmed the time-travel found-footage movie Project Almanac, is on board to direct the project, which is being produced by Saban Brands’ Haim Saban and Brian Casentini as well as Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey. Allison Shearmur will executive produce. A quintet of relative newcomers — RJ Cyler, Becky G, Ludi Lin, Naomi Scott and Dacre Montgomery — are playing the teens who, infused with powers, form a colorful team who must stop the world from being conquered. Banks will play the classic Power Ranger character Rita Repulsa, an alien witch who has designs on the planet. Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama (The Last Witch Hunter, the upcoming Gods of Egypt) wrote the script. Last year, Banks directed, acted in and produced Pitch Perfect 2 for Universal and also rep

Click below to see if Loot Crate delivers the goods with May 2015's Unite-themed box. Review by Matt Cummings After a series of very good Loot Crate boxes including March and April , May 2015's submission does more than its best to UNITE them with its awesomeness. The result is yet another great cornucopia of goodness for a very affordable price of $20. The monthly geek subscription box service is among dozens of entries vying for your hard-earned dollars, with Loot promising a nice return on that monthly subscription. Its hand-picked, cool geeky collection wrapped around a theme faces a lot of competition, but let's see why I think May undeniably delivers the goods. Loot's nondescript sex toy packaging makes my elderly neighbors nervous. A quick scissoring of the tape underneath and it's clear May is going to rock. Is that Green Ranger?! Upon cracking the case, we find The Power Rangers representing in a terrific t-shirt. This is consiste
