Bryan Edward Hill, writer of DC's Batman and the Outsiders and HBO Max's Titans, has been tapped to pen the script for eOne and Hasbro's forthcoming Power Rangers film."I'm INCREDIBLY excited about this," Hill tweeted. "I LOVED [director Jonathan Entwistle's] work before I came aboard this, and when I heard his ideas I immediately got stoked. This is one of those 'Wow I get to do this!' projects."
Hill boarding Power Rangers comes just one week after eOne announced Entwistle would officially helm the project, which is itself just one piece of what's expected to be an interconnected series of films and television shows. This will collectively serve as a reboot to the Power Rangers movie that was released in 2017.
"This is an unbelievable opportunity to deliver new Power Rangers to both new and existing generations of awaiting and adoring fans," Entwistle said. "We'll bring the spirit of analog into the future, harnessing the action and storytelling that made this brand a success."
Created by Haim Saban in 1993, Power Rangers is one of the longest-running franchises in history. In addition to a number of TV shows, the team has featured in video games, movies and various other media over the years, and BOOM! Studios' current line of comics based on the characters has been running since 2016.
