Gail Simone Wants To Write A Power Rangers Project

07/05/2017 12:06 pm EDT

Power Rangers is now on home video, allowing those who missed it in the theater (there were more than a few after all) another chance to see it. You can count Gail Simone as one of those new viewers, and it seems to have sparked some ideas.

Simone tweeted some of her reactions to the film, including her investment in the characters outside of the costumes and Zords (via Bleeding Cool). Simone said "Damn, this is weird, but I am actually invested in the kids' lives in this Power Rangers movie. How did this happen?"

That seems to have prompted some story ideas, with Simone adding later "Dang it, now I want to write the Power Rangers." She reiterated this later, saying "Now I have a Power Rangers plot in my head."

Simone also confirmed her favorite scene in the film when someone asked "Tell me, are you in love with #Trimberly yet?", referencing the scene where the two are having some fun in a cafe.

There are currently no announced plans for a sequel, but that will hopefully come to pass eventually. As for the comics, there are two series of Power Rangers books at BOOM! Studios, so who knows? Maybe it's time for some Simone backup stories, or a new series entirely.

Who's going to say no to a Gail Simone Power Rangers team up? No one, that's who.

Power Rangers currently has a 73.17 on ComicBook.com's composite rankings.

The action-packed, coming of age feature film Saban's Power Rangers will morph onto Digital HD June 13 and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack (plus Blu-ray and Digital HD), Blu-ray Combo Pack (plus DVD and Digital HD), DVD and On Demand June 27 from Lionsgate. As part of the 24-year-old global phenomenon and based on the five Rangers from the original TV series, "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers,", the reimagined movie features a modern generation of Rangers including Dacre Montgomery (TV's "Stranger Things") as Jason the Red Ranger, Naomi Scott (The 33) as Kimberly the Pink Ranger, RJ Cyler (Me and Earl and the Dying Girl) as Billy the Blue Ranger, Ludi Lin (Monster Hunt) as Zack the Black Ranger, and Becky G. (Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising) as Trini the Yellow Ranger, as they attempt to stop the evil and unpredictable Rita Repulsa (played by Elizabeth Banks, The Hunger Games Franchise) from destroying their city…and ultimately the world. Bryan Cranston ("Breaking Bad") as Zordon, and Bill Hader (Finding Dory) as Alpha 5 train the Rangers to morph and master their powers as a united team.

The Saban's Power Rangers DVD will include exclusive audio commentary with director Dean Israelite and writer John Gatins, and deleted/alternate/extended scenes and outtakes. Saban's Power Rangers will be available on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, and DVD for the suggested retail price of $42.99, $39.99, and $29.95, respectively.

Power Rangers is in stores now.
