Power Rangers movie to film in Vancouver?
A secret film project led by Power Rangers director Dean Israelite set to shoot in Vancouver
The Power Rangers are coming back.
And it looks like they just might be morphing right into our backyard.
The popular 1990s children's television show is getting a rebirth as a major live action feature film with 2017 as a planned released date. Dean Israelite, best known for the sci-fi thriller Project Almanac, has been tapped to direct.
According to the Directors Guild of Canada's production list for B.C., early production is already underway on a $20 million dollar film directed by Israelite.

At this point, the production company responsible for Israelite's film is coded as "Shirt".
The location manager listed for the Power Rangers film, Monty Bannister, also confirms he will be working on a movie in Vancouver for Shirt Productions Canada, Israelite's production company.
So watch out alien invaders, if you roam around B.C., a mighty morphing Power Ranger just might send you back to where you belong.
