The celebrities of Energy Rangers might discover it straightforward to morph, however Hollywood is discovering it difficult to morph them into a brand new franchise. Filmmaker Jonathan Entwistle has been connected to the franchise since 2019, first as a film director then as overseer of a larger, expanded universe. That expanded universe was trying prefer it would possibly seem as a Netflix series however now that sequence is lifeless, and the franchise is again to the drafting board.
TV Line confirmed rumors that started circulating on-line that Netflix’s live-action Energy Rangers sequence showrun by Jenny Klein (Daisy Jones & the Six, Supernatural) is not shifting ahead on the streamer. Because of this, franchise proprietor Hasbro is presently in search of a brand new companion to work with on bringing Energy Rangers again.
No phrase on how that’s going however Netflix had been a reasonably fertile floor for the franchise. It’s the place followers bought the animated sequence Cosmic Fury and, most famously, the reunion special that brought back many of the unique forged. That it has determined to not transfer ahead with one other, probably extra bold iteration isn’t an important signal.
As for Entwistle, he’s presently engaged on Karate Child, the 2025 reboot/sequel to the 4 theatrical Karate Child motion pictures starring Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan. We have now excessive hopes for that; possibly as soon as that’s accomplished, he may help convey Energy Rangers again in a brand new, thrilling method.
