Disney Cancels Live-Action Power Rangers Series Citing Business Challenges
Disney's planned live-action Power Rangers series, developed with showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz, remains stalled at the development stage and has reportedly been scrapped. The project faced business-related challenges, primarily due to the high production costs and the fact that Disney and its studio do not own the Power Rangers intellectual property, which is held by Hasbro. Previous attempts to launch a live-action adaptation on Netflix were also canceled, with Hasbro shifting partnerships to Disney before this setback.
