Power Rangers reboot is a joint production of both Saban and Lionsgate, which will be directed by Dean Israelite.

The latest details and spoilers for the 2017 "Power Rangers" movie will feature the possible origins of Zordon and Rita Repulsa, as well as the film's official runtime.

It seems that the official runtime for the 2017 "Power Rangers" movie reboot has been announced as Lionsgate confirmed that the film will be at 123 minutes, which a little over two hours, Screenrant reported.

It is certainly that the "Power Rangers" has a lot to set up and then deconstruct; introducing the new versions of the 90's characters as the new rangers, letting new viewers become familiar with the origins. It should also give us plenty of time to enjoy the fight sequences as well as the CGI action.

Aside from the runtime, Lionsgate also released the film's international poster which features all five rangers unmasked alongside their respective DinoZords, the Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, Pterodactyl, Sabretooth Tiger and Mastodon.

Meanwhile, it seems that a long standing rumor from the "Power Rangers" movie has been revealed regarding the possible origins of Zordon (Bryan Cranston) and Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks).

Zordon's backstory in the 2017 "Power Rangers" movie has been teased as Cranston's version of Zordon could be one of the original Ranger before the events of the movie.

The theory was teased when an Instagram post from Andrew Grey (via Power Ranger Now) which featured Cranston's book "A Life in Parts" with a message that reads “To Andrew, Happy Birthday! To a Power Ranger, from a Power Ranger. Be well. – Bryan Cranston, 2017.”

With that in mind, this could mean that Zordon could be a former ranger, particularly the Red Ranger before Jason Scott (Dacre Montgomary). It is also theorized that the main villain in the "Power Rangers" movie, Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks) was the former Green Ranger, but was seduced by power and betrayed her fellow rangers for the Zeo Crystal, the source of there power.

Rita's mission in the movie to gain the Zeo Crystal using the monster Goldar and deliver it to her master Lord Zedd, which is Zordon will need Jason along with the other chosen teenagers Kimberly Hart (Naomi Scott), Billy Cranston (RJ Cyler), Zack (Ludi Lin) and Trini (Becky G) as the next Power Rangers to defend the earth.

The "Power Rangers" movie will be in cinemas on March 24, 2017.
