(updated 9/1/22) SEPT. 1 2022: November done, only two Dino Fury-only WEEKS left. SO CLOSE!
We finally got word -- the back half of Dino Fury Season 2 drops on Netflix on Sept. 29. Then came the mega news from Power Rangers Day -- Aug. 28. It started with a botched scheduling of a Hasbro Pulse tweet (2 a.m. Eastern!), with a video from Simon Bennett that Season 30 of Power Rangers will be called "Cosmic Fury" (they're going into space!), and that it'll be out in 2023, that he will be back as Executive Producer/showrunner and that the ENTIRE six-person Dino Fury Cast is back as well.
The video had a short snippet of a reworked theme and the new logo:
Other than that, we don't know squat. What Sentai are they adapting? Are they even adapting a Sentai? How many episodes? One year or two? These answers will, certainly, come to the fore. We're used to living in the land of not knowing, so a little more of that is called for now. I think the next good chance will come at Hasbro's Pulse Con, which is Sept. 30 and Oct. 1. That comes one day after the Season 2, Part 2 drop of PRDF.
What do I think? Obviously, if Sentai IS to be adapted, Uchu Sentai Kyuranger is space-based and lends itself as the choice. Plus, with six established characters carrying over from PRDF, the "chore" of developing such a large ranger team (it winds up with 12) is lessened. But I DON'T think they're doing that. That's because my lean is that this is a one-year, one-season project with an episode count in the mid-20s. That's not enough to use all that is Kyuranger. Also, I think this is a one-year "extension" of the "original" Power Rangers because a) it gets them to a nice 30 years number and b) it gives the Entwistle project another full year of development before making its debut.
We shall see. SO MUCH is unknown and it could go anywhere.
