Saban today unveiled a super-charged first-look of Power Rangers Ninja Steel, the 24th season of the popular Power Rangers franchise, in a special trailer shown during a panel at Power Morphicon 2016 in Pasadena, CA! During the panel, Saban also revealed that Nickelodeon USA will start to premiere and show Power Rangers Ninja Steel in January 2017!:



At the end of the PMC 5 panel, fans got a first look at the show's cast!:


Will Shewfelt as Brody, the Red Ranger
Chrystiane Lopes as Sarah, the Pink Ranger
Chantz Simpson as Calvin, the Yellow RAnger
Zoe Robins as Hayley, the White Ranger
Peter Sudarso as Preston, the Blue Ranger

Fun fact about Peter Sudarso – he is actually the younger brother of Yoshi, who plays the Blue Ranger on Dino Super Charge. It's nice to see that a proud tradition of fighting evil runs in the family. But if a who's who of the new cast isn't enough, take a sneak peek at a brand new villain they'll be fighting when Ninja Steel premieres next year... Galvanax!:


Saban's Power Rangers Ninja Steel starts deep in space, where Zircon is the reigning champion of the most popular intergalactic game show in the universe, and monsters battle to prove who is the mightiest warrior. Zircon is determined to become invincible by controlling the mythical Spirit Crystal, which contains six supernatural Ninja Power Throwing Stars. The only thing standing in his way is a new team of heroic teenage Power Rangers who possess the Spirit Crystal. The evil Zircon sends his warrior contestants down to Earth to steal the Crystal, where each epic battle against the Rangers is broadcast throughout the universe. Together, the Rangers must master their arsenal of Throwing Stars, Zords and Megazords, each made of legendary ninja steel, in order to stop this evil threat and save our planet from destruction. The series will be based on Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, Toei's 39th ninja-themed Super Sentai special effects series in Japan.

Power Rangers Dino Super Charge, the current season of Power Rangers, continues with brand-new episodes every Saturday at 12/11c only on Nickelodeon USA starting August 20th. PRDSC will also make its UK debut on POP on Monday 5th September 2016.
