They can't really reassemble all the old actors, could they? Do they actually mean the costumed characters?

Yeah, Odagiri will probably never EVER return to being Kamen Rider Kuuga, and while a lot of Sentai characters returned for Gokaiger, EVERYBODY won't be returning, I think the only guarantees for Kamen Rider people would be Den-O, Decade, W, OOO and Fourze. Sentai will probably only maybe bring back a select few characters, probably Gokaiger crews and maybe one or two veterans. No WAY they can afford to pay 485 actors to come back, most of them won't even be voiced!

all 173 members of the teams in the live-action special-effects Super Sentai franchise


Try again. Last year's Gokaiger Goseiger movie was 199 Heroes. Add in Go-Busters, and we're up to 202. That is not "all".

[edit]
Reading it again, I'm also questioning
Quote:
all 50 cast members from the four-decade-long Kamen Rider franchise

Considering that Fourze (Four-Ze[ro]) is Main Rider #40, and at least all of the Heisei Riders have had at least one secondary rider (I think Ryuki had, like, 13 riders total? And Kabuto's got a bunch, too), this number is wrong for "all". Either it means main riders, in which it's too high, or all riders, in which it's too low. And we already have confirmation on at least 3 secondary Riders (Accel from W, Meteor from Fourze, and DiEnd from DCD). And that's not counting non-Rider cast members (since it says "cast", not "riders"), of which the movie is confirmed to have at least 7 of them (Owner, Naomi, Momotaros, Urataros, Kintaros, Ryuutaros, and Hina).

[edit2] Saw the full-length trailer just released, adjusting the previous edit.

They might not be counting the Extra Hero subset in that number, which is about 13+ sentai warriors that aren't counted in the main groups.

Fourze is the 40th Anniversary Rider, not necessarily the 40th Rider ever (who would have probably been Todoroki in Hibiki). Going by (semi) official Rider lists, it should actually be 62 Riders altogether (unless you count movie Riders, or ignore villian Riders, the number could be up in the nineties!)

There is no way to come to 173, even discounting the 6th Rangers or Extra Heroes.

5 Members each: Goranger, JAKQ, Battle Fever J, Denjiman, Goggle-V, Dynaman, Bioman, Changeman, Flashman, Maskman, Liveman, Turboranger, Fiveman, Jetman, Kakuranger*, GoGo-V (16 teams, total of 80)
5 Members + 6th Ranger: Zyuranger, Dairanger, Ohranger, Megaranger, Timeranger, Gaoranger, Hurricanger*, Goseiger, Gokaiger (9 teams, 45 "base" + 9 = 49)
5 Members + Extra Hero: Gingaman, Carranger (2 teams, 10 "base" + 2 = 18)
5 Members + More than 1 "extra": Dekaranger (6th + 2 Extra), Magiranger (6th + 2 Extra), Boukenger (6th + 1 Extra), Gekiranger (2 Extra), Go-Onger (2 "6th"), Shinkenger (6th + 1 Extra) (6 teams, 30 "base" + 10 = 40)
4 Members + "6th" Ranger: Abaranger (1 team, 4 "base"+ 1 = 5)
3 Members each: Sun Vulcan, Go-Busters** (2 teams, 6 total)
*Kakuranger also has Ninjaman, who is neither counted as a 6th or an Extra, but as a Mech, in Gokaiger, and is therefore not in the count.
**Hurricanger is officially recognized as a single team of 5, rather than a team of 3 and a team of 2, by Gokaiger.
***Go-Busters spoilers: spoiler[Toy previews and magazine scans show that there are two more Go-Busters coming, one being human and the second being a Buddyroid. We don't know if they'll be in the movie, or how they'll be counted, so, for now, they're being left off.]

Since we know from the previews that at least Gokai Silver is included, we should assume that most "6th" Rangers are included as well, bringing the total to 194. Which is still 21 higher than the number given. Discounting anyone but the core teams, that's still 178, 5 higher than the number given.

I'm not as versed in KR history as Sentai (Decade did not inspire me as Gokaiger did to do research), but it is my understanding that Fourze is the 40th Main Rider. Not 40th Rider period. I'm well aware that the number of total Riders is much higher.

Regardless, for both, listing "all" is highly inaccurate. Those numbers can neither be "all" the Sentai members, nor "all" the Kamen Rider cast members.

These numbers are what Toei gives as promotion.
The trailers say "all" maksed riders and "all" super taskforces so there you go. Fourze is the 28th main rider, by the way.

spoiler[Rider 1, Rider 2, V3, Riderman, X, Amazon, Stronger, Skyrider, Super-1, Black, Black RX, ZX, Shin, ZO, J, Kuuga, Agito, Ryuki, Faiz, Blade, Hibiki, Kabuto, Den-O, Kiva, Decade, W, OOO, Fourze]

There's also the thing that 6th rangers are frequently not counted as full-fledged members of their team, because a Super Taskforce is ultimately a 5-people group, it's even in their franchise logo.
