posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The Power Morphicon convention revealed the cast of Power Rangers Beast Morphers, the upcoming 26th season of Power Rangers, on Saturday. The cast includes Rorrie D. Travis as the Red Beast Morpher, Jacqueline Scislowski as the Yellow Beast Morpher, and Jasmeet Baduwalia as the Blue Beast Morpher.
The panel also showed a teaser trailer for the show.
Saban Brands describes the series:
Set in the future, a secret agency combines a newly discovered substance called the "Morph-X" with animal DNA to create the Power Rangers Beast Morphers team. The rangers must fight off an evil sentient computer virus bent on taking over the source of all Ranger power, the Morphin Grid itself. Featuring never-before-seen leather suits and an all-new beast-themed arsenal (including dynamic new Zords), fans should get ready for a full season full of secret ops and and morphinominal fun.
The series will use footage from Toei's Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters series, which premiered in February 2012 and was the 36th entry in the Super Sentai series.
Power Rangers Beast Morphers will be the first series to feature a toy collection from Hasbro Inc. starting in spring 2019. Hasbro announced on May 1 that it will acquire Power Rangers and several other brands from Saban Properties. The agreement, which is expected to close in the second quarter of 2018, includes all of Saban's related intellectual property, category rights, and content libraries. Hasbro was already named as the master toy licensee for the Power Rangers franchise, and will take over for the previous license holder Bandai America on April 1, 2019.
Nickelodeon is currently airing Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel (seen right), the second season sequel to the Power Rangers Ninja Steel series, and the 25th entry in the Power Rangers franchise. The series premiered on January 27. The show uses footage from Toei's ninja-themed Shuriken Sentai Ninninger series, which premiered in February 2015, and marks the 40th anniversary of Toei's Super Sentai franchise.
