Lionsgate Plans Power Rangers As A Significant Series Of Movies

Lionsgate executives shared plans for the company's upcoming film slate with the press on Friday morning, including an update on the upcoming Power Rangers reboot movie.

The company says that, despite pushing the film's released date back from July to January, they have confidence in the project.

"We're very excited and with Dean's [Israelite] vision; we felt very comfortable looking for opportunistic dating," Lionsgate Motion Pictures Group Co-Chairman Rob Friedman explained on the conference call. "We really believe that great movies deliver no matter what date they're on."

The executives went on to say that the company sees Power Rangers as a "significant series of movies."

Power Rangers is scheduled for release on January 13, 2017.
