A new "Power Rangers" poster has just been released and we'll be seeing awesome, massive Zords this time.

According to IGN, the new poster showed five Zords and their massive, bestial, mechanical, imposing presence. Up in front we see the Yellow Sabre-Toothed Tigerzord for Trini Kwan, or the Yellow Ranger will be portrayed by Hispanic American singer Becky G. Behind the Tiger is something bearing close to the Red Tyrannosaurus Rex or the Dinozord of Jason Lee Scott, or the Red Ranger played by Australian actor Dacre Montgomery.

Up in the sky is most probably the Pterodactyl Zord (obviously), given to Kimberly Hart or the Pink Ranger played by English actress Naomi Scott. This leaves the Triceratops Zord of Billy Cranston or the Blue Ranger (RJ Cyler) and the Mastodon Zord of Zack Taylor or the Black Ranger (Ludi Lin).

In an earlier article of Entertainment Weekly, the teenagers' new suits will not be Spandex any more but instead be showing a bio-organic, insectile, mechanical armored appearance.

According to production designer Andrew Menzies: "Ours is an alien costume that grows on them, that's not man-made. You can't win everyone over, but we are trying to appeal to a more mature audience and gain new fans."

"The show was about kids coming of age, about metamorphosis," explained director Dean Israelite. "These suits needed to feel like they were catalyzed by these kids and their energy, their spirit."

Along with those changes, the villain from the original series, Rita Repulsa, will also go through changes in terms of appearance for the upcoming film and will be played by "The Hunger Games" actress Elizabeth Banks.

In other news, "Breaking Bad" actor Bryan Cranston will be taking the role of the Power Rangers' mentor Zordon.
