Morphin’ Time Returns: Everything We Know About the Power Rangers Disney Plus Series

Get ready to morph into action because the Power Rangers are making a grand return! Recent reports have ignited excitement among fans with news of a live-action Power Rangers Disney Plus series in development.

Announced on March 19, 2025, this project promises to bring the iconic superhero franchise back to the small screen under the creative vision of Percy Jackson and the Olympians showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz, with Hasbro Entertainment at the helm. Here’s everything we’ve uncovered about this highly anticipated reboot.

What Is the Power Rangers Disney Plus Series About?

Details about the storyline remain scarce, but the series is poised to reinvent the Power Rangers franchise for a new generation while honoring its legacy.

Originally launched in 1993 as Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the show followed a group of teenagers who transform into superheroes to battle evil forces, drawing inspiration from Japan’s Super Sentai.

The Wrap reports that Steinberg and Shotz, currently in talks to write, produce, and showrun, aim to delight both longtime fans and newcomers.

Expect a fresh take that could explore modern themes while retaining the core elements of teamwork, martial arts, and giant mechs known as Zords.

Who Is Behind the Power Rangers Disney Plus Project?

The creative team is a major draw for this reboot. Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz bring their proven expertise from Percy Jackson and the Olympians, a Disney+ hit that balanced action, mythology, and character depth.

Hasbro Entertainment, which acquired the Power Rangers franchise in 2018, is producing alongside Disney’s 20th Century Television.

This marks a homecoming of sorts—Disney previously owned the franchise from 2001 to 2010, producing seasons like Wild Force and RPM. With Hasbro’s focus on expanding its IPs across media, this collaboration signals big ambitions for the series.

When Will the Power Rangers Disney Plus Series Premiere?

As of March 20, 2025, no official release date has been announced. The project is still in early development, with Steinberg and Shotz’s involvement yet to be finalized.

Given Disney+’s track record with high-profile series and Hasbro’s push to capitalize on its brands, production could ramp up quickly once the creative team is locked in. Fans might expect a premiere in late 2026 or 2027, though this is purely speculative for now.

How Does This Fit Into Power Rangers’ Recent History?

The Power Rangers franchise has seen its share of ups and downs. After a stalled Netflix reboot in 2024 and a 2017 film that underperformed, Hasbro shifted gears. The 30th anniversary special Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always in 2023 showed there’s still love for the brand.

Meanwhile, a separate reboot film is reportedly in the works at Paramount for 2026, suggesting a multi-pronged revival. The Power Rangers Disney Plus series could complement this by building a connected universe—or stand alone as a bold reimagining.

Why Is Disney+ the Perfect Home for Power Rangers?

Disney+ has become a hub for nostalgic reboots with a modern twist, from Star Wars to Percy Jackson. The platform’s family-friendly yet expansive audience aligns perfectly with Power Rangers’ appeal.

Plus, Hasbro’s toy-driven strategy fits Disney’s merchandising machine. A successful Power Rangers Disney Plus series could spark a new wave of toys, games, and apparel, echoing the franchise’s ’90s heyday.

What Can Fans Expect From This Reboot?

While specifics are under wraps, the involvement of Steinberg and Shotz hints at a character-driven narrative with high stakes. Will we see the original Mighty Morphin team, or a new squad of Rangers? Could classic villains like Rita Repulsa return?

The series might also lean into Disney+’s cinematic production values, offering epic Zord battles and martial arts choreography that rival blockbuster films. Whatever the direction, it’s clear this reboot aims to morph Power Rangers into something fresh yet familiar.

Some Closing Thoughts: It’s Morphin’ Time on Disney+

The Power Rangers Disney Plus series is shaping up to be a must-watch for fans old and new. With a powerhouse team behind it and the promise of a reinvented franchise, this could be the spark that reignites Power Rangers fever.

As we await more details, one thing’s certain: the countdown to morphin’ time has begun.
