Power Rangers contains a slew of references to the original series, including a subtle one regarding the leader of the team, the Jason Scott.

Spoilers coming for Power Rangers, so if you haven't seen it yet you've been warned.

During a scene in Jason's house, he goes to take something out of the refrigerator. A newspaper clipping can be seen tacked to it, which he narrates out loud. The headline reads "Angel Grove's Golden Boy", referring to his star quarterback days, but savvy fans will also recognize it as a reference to his future role in the Rangers.

JLSProblemDog caught a screenshot of the scene, which you can see below.

During the Power Rangers Zeo series, Tommy Oliver took over the Red Ranger role. Jason had left the role during Mighty Morphin, but Tommy enlisted him once again to be the host for the Gold Ranger power, needing someone he implicitly trusted.

While the movie's Jason will probably not become the Gold Ranger anytime soon, it's still a nice homage to Power Rangers Zeo and a character that fans adore.

You can find the official description for the film below.

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.
