The most substantial evidence for such a version of this movie came in the form of the Power/Rangers short from director Adi Shankar that debuted online a couple of years ago. So, there is definitely a slightly adjacent universe where Lionsgate makes a Power Rangers movie with an R-rating, but not in this universe. The movie wound up grossing $783 million worldwide and encouraged Fox to give the upcoming Wolverine movie Logan an R-rating as well. Deadpool proved last year that a movie that is rated R can truly succeed and crossover to mainstream audiences. Some may laugh at the idea of an R-rated Power Rangers movie, but it isn't as unthinkable as it may seem.
Granted, they now have twenty years worth of nostalgia to work with. Lionsgate definitely recognized something needed to change in order to make the property work as a movie, since Turbo made less than $10 million worldwide. So, giving the movie a PG-13 rating will give a lot more flexibility in terms of how much more gritty it can be when compared to the 1995 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie and Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. There hasn't been a theatrically released Power Rangers movie for nearly two-decades, but the two previous Power Rangers movies were both rated PG. Still, it would probably be a much less cheesy take than the show, but it won't quite be the very violent, gritty affair that it perhaps could have been. There was some hope that maybe this new take on the Power Rangers would push the envelope a bit more and perhaps wind up being R-rated, but Lionsgate is clearly going for something a bit more family friendly. The fan site Power Rangers NOW has confirmed that the MPAA has rated Lionsgate's upcoming Power Rangers reboot at PG-13, which was confirmed at the CES expo in Las Vegas. We now know that the movie has been rated PG-13.

It will be a bit more gritty and grounded than the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series was, but maybe not as gritty as some might have hoped. It is a property that has been ripe for a new take and that time is now. There are a lot of movies to look forward to in 2017, and while it may not be the most anticipated, Power Rangers is certainly on a lot of people's lists.
