If Banks excels in the role, Power Rangers has a chance to be a huge success.
If the rumored backstory for Repulsa is true, then the story of the Power Rangers reboot will ultimately be satisfyingly faithful to the original source material.
There’s also a voiceover of Rita saying “I’ve killed Rangers before,” during what appears to be a ruthless path of destruction for the evil sorceress.
Banks has looked menacing in the small handful of clips that have been revealed, but until Power Rangers makes its debut, it will remain unclear how powerful her performance really is.
