When the Power Rangers revival morphs into theaters, the five teenagers with attitude won’t be wearing the original series’ campy costumes to battle Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks). Instead, 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.”

What a surprise: The suits for the females, look like they were made for a sex doll.

So for a woman to be strong she needs to be a man? Because thats what women look like.

Not whilst wearing armour.

It’s nothing to do with pecs, armour doesn’t mold around tits.

Any little interest I had in watching this movie died today watching this suits… they are plain awful

Are those actual people in costumes or toys? They look so awkward.

The girls look so uncomfortable in those ugly heels

Def too busy looking. Way too heavy handed in the ‘updating’ department
