Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always Trailer Teases Netflix Reunion Special

Netflix has finally released the official Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always trailer for the upcoming reunion special for the series’ 30th anniversary. The video gives viewers a glimpse of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers cast’s reunion, as they must once again team up in order to stop Rita Repulsa from wreaking havoc after she found a way to revive herself. It will be available for streaming on April 19, 2023.

The Netflix reunion special will feature the return of Steve Cardenas as Rocky DeSantos/ Red Ranger, Walter Jones as Zack Taylor/ Black Ranger, David Yost as Billy Cranston/ Blue Ranger, and Catherine Sutherland as Katherine Hillard/ Pink Ranger, with Barbara Goodson as the voice of Rita Repulsa. They will also be joined by Charlie Kersh, who has been tapped to play Trini Kwan/ Yellow Ranger’s daughter.

“The Rangers come face to face with a familiar threat from the past,” reads the synopsis. “In the midst of a global crisis, they are called on once again to be the heroes the world needs. Inspired by the legendary mantra from the franchise ‘Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger,’ Once & Always reminds everyone when you become a Ranger, you are always a part of the Ranger family and always welcome.”

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers originally premiered in 1993, adapting stock footage from the Japanese TV series Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger. Following its premiere, the series became a cultural phenomenon, spawning a huge line of toys, action figures, and more, as well as a litany of spin-offs and films based on the series. The original series ran for a total of three seasons and 145 episodes, before coming to an end in 1995.
