Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Animated Series (Season 1)

View source
Icon-mightymorphin This article is about a/an series entry (the 1st) in Power Rangers: The Animated Series, a different continuity than the live-action TV series.


The first season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Animated Series is the first overall season of Power Rangers: The Animated Series, serving as an adaptation and reboot of the Power Rangers season of the same name. The season follows a group of "teenagers with attitude" recruited by Zordon to fight the awakening Rita Repulsa and her goons.

The series aired on Disney+ from January 27 to October 7, 2024.

Production[]

The thematic genesis for The Animated Series began with a few works of Power Rangers media. First, in 2016 Boom! Studios began its acclaimed line of Power Rangers comics featuring new stories that are told in an updated then contemporary (2010s) setting. Next in March 2017, Lionsgate and Saban Brands released a new Power Rangers film that served as a modern re-imagining of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers television series. Despite underperforming at the box office, the 2017 film would be followed that same month by a graphic novel sequel, Power Rangers: Aftershock. The 2017 film would also later influence the creation of the later Animated Series by both providing important lessons on what to avoid while also depicting its own take on an updated setting to draw influence from as the latter series would create a balance between the darker, grittier take of the 2017 film and the more child-friendly atmosphere of the original series. Finally, in 2023, Power Rangers: Future Force was released honoring the franchise's 30th anniversary. Future Force would establish the universe of The Animated Series with the creation of a new timeline in which the new series would take place.

Despite taking place in the same continuity established in Future Force, it was decided that for the most part, all-new actors would be casted in the re-imagined iconic roles from the original series. Max Mittleman auditioned and was cast as Jason Lee Scott. Robbie Daymond also auditioned for the role of Jason but didn't make the cut, though he would later be brought on as the very first Sixth Ranger, Tommy Oliver. Yuri Lowenthal, who voiced Jason in Power Rangers Super Legends as well as Future Force, instead became Billy Cranston. Erica Lindbeck became Kimberly Ann Hart. AJ Beckles got the role of Zack Taylor. Finally, Faye Mata was casted as Trini Kwan. Dante Basco would later be asked to reprise his role as Zorion for the series. The villain voice actors were hired more sporadically. Christina Valenzuela was casted as Rita Repulsa. Richard Epcar, a veteran Power Rangers voice actor who voiced a number of villains in the series, was casted as Goldar.

Synopsis[]

Long ago, the ancient wizard Zordon battled the evil sorceress Rita Repulsa. After many years he managed to defeat her using five magical power coins. As punishment for her loss, she was sealed in a canister on the Earth's moon. Before being sealed away, Rita attempted to trap Zordon in a time warp. However, due to the interference of the Future Force Rangers, Rita's attempt to trap Zordon was thwarted, leaving Zordon free of his time warp.

10,031 years later, Rita and her minions have escaped their prison and are out to conquer Earth. Zordon, desperate to stop her, has his assistant Alpha 5 recruit five "teenagers with attitude": Jason, Trini, Kimberly, Zack, and Billy. Granted the powers of prehistoric animals in the form of Power Coins, they become the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

After several losing battles, Rita captures a newcomer to Angel Grove named Tommy Oliver and brainwashes him to become her Evil Green Ranger. Though Tommy inflicts repeated and crushing defeats to the Rangers, they are ultimately able to wrest control of his mind away from Rita, and he joins the team as the Sixth Power Ranger. His first stint with the Rangers would be short lived, however, when Rita creates a magical green candle to strip Tommy of his powers and return them to her control. Tommy elects to give what remains of his powers to Jason in order to keep them away from Rita.

After the Rangers continue to manage to secure a number of additional victories over Rita's forces, her second-in-command Goldar becomes disillusioned with her leadership. Plotting with her boss, Lord Zedd, Goldar with the aid of Zedd's newest servant Evil-Lyn, a witch of equal power to Rita's, Goldar stages a coup against Rita and usurps control of her crew. Around this time, the mysterious Gray Ranger arrives on the scene to help the Rangers. This new Ranger is later revealed to be Zorion, Zordon's former student who has been off fighting great battles in the far reaches of space, who had been sent by Tommy, whom Zordon had sent on a dangerous mission to the planet Onyx to retrieve the lost powers of an ancient team of Rangers.

The Rangers continue to battle Goldar's increasingly evil schemes, and Tommy is later brought back to their side (albeit in limited capability) when Zordon is able to infuse his Power Coin with his own ancient power. However, Goldar's presence only invites even more trouble...
