Well over a year after it was first reported that Disney+ was planning to reboot Power Rangers for a live-action series, the streamer has ultimately decided against it. This is per Deadline, which reports that the series, intended to come from Percy Jackson And The Olympians showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz, would not move past the development stage. The outlet cites budget issues as the primary reason the series will not be moving forward. The investment needed to get Power Rangers off the ground apparently doesn’t make economic sense given that it’s Hasbro, not Disney, that actually owns the IP.
