Remember when we posted this announcement about our favorite teen NON mutant turtle ninjas getting a new movie?  Well, it looks like that project is moving forward with the writing team of Ashley E. Miller and Zack Stentz (X-Men: First Class, Thor).

Additionally, Roberto Orci, one of the screenwriters behind the Transformers and Star Trek movies, is coming on board as an exec producer.  Orci will develop the movie’s story along with Miller and Stentz, with the latter two handling screenwriting duties.  The new movie promises to completely re-envision the Rangers, a group of high school kids who are infused with unique superpowers but must harness and use those powers as a team if they have any hope of saving the world.  Haim Saban, who created the franchise, will produce Power Rangers with Saban Brands’ head of development and production Brian Casentini.

No details yet on WHEN they’re thinking the film will happen, but Lionsgate might talk about it during SDCC.
