Bryan Cranston Joins Power Rangers

Bryan Cranston has joined the cast of the Power Rangers movie. The Breaking Bad actor will play Zordon, the wise galactic sage who put together the Power Rangers team.

While it may be surprising, Cranston already has a history with the franchise. He once voiced some of the original monsters on the show, including Snizzard.

The film will be released in 2017 and is directed by South African filmmaker Dean Israelite.

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.

Saban’s Power Rangers follows five ordinary high school kids who must become something extraordinary when they learn that their small town of Angel Grove – and the world – is on the verge of being obliterated by an alien threat. Chosen by destiny, our heroes quickly discover that they are the only ones who can save the planet. But to do so they will have to overcome their real-life issues and band together as the Power Rangers before it is too late.
