“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” Cast, Spoilers: Robert Orci bailed out, Jason Frank to do a cameo? Dean Israelite to be the director?

By

Haim Saban, the entertainment studio that brought us the 90's phenomenon "Power Rangers" has collaborated with Lionsgate to continue and raise the bar for this iconic franchise. The plot will still carry the core backstory of high school students possessing incredible powers and battle skills which they will use to fight evil and maintain peace. The details of the plot and the cast is still scarce but despite the slow progress, the movie is expected to announce its official cast soon.

According to TheWrap, "X-Men : First Class" and "Thor"'s very own Ashley Miller and Zack Stentz will be penning the film. But the film's road to the big screen faced some challenges as Robert Orci dropped the project to direct "Star Trek 3". Allison Shearmur from "The Hunger Games" movie series took over Orci's place in producing the film.

Jason Frank wants to star in the reboot, Dean Israelite to direct?

The original Green Ranger Jason Frank, who held to his character the longest has expressed his interest to be included in the film. "I wanna be in the real 'Power Ranger' movie. You know what I mean? So Lionsgate let's get this stuff going on be in the real movie. I've saved my character for so long. And when I bring my character out in like in the movies or something linke that I want it to be legit. I want it to be a Saban blessing approved project." Frank said in a Facebook video post.

Lionsgate has been reported to be negotiating with "Project Almanac"'s director Dean Israelite to helm the Power Rangers reboot. "I don't know if he's 100%. I know they're looking at him, but I don't think it's a done deal. I know they're in talks with him right now. They're still negotiating a deal. We'll see who ends up directing this thing," Frank said in an interview.

Do you think Lionsgate and Saban should include Frank in the "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" movie? Is Israelite the perfect candidate to helm the movie? Sound off below!

"Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" is slated to hit the theaters on July 22, 2016.
