Netflix has released the trailer for the upcoming Power Rangers reunion, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always 30th Anniversary Special. The upcoming special will be a scripted event celebrating the enduring legacy of the first installment of the now iconic Power Rangers franchise. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was a television show that premiered on Fox Kids and was adapted from the Japanese series Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger. The series chronicled the adventures of the six Power Rangers and quickly became one of the most far-reaching pop culture sensations of the 1990s.
Now, Netflix's new trailer for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always 30th Anniversary Special shows the return of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
The trailer teases even more adventures from the original 1993 cast and guest actors as they suit up in Angel Grove for the first time in 30 years. Fans also get a glimpse at the behind-the-scenes of filming the special in the trailer, including the cast members' off-screen chemistry and evident excitement to inhabit their past beloved roles.
