In an interview with HitFlix, director Joseph Kahn said: “The irony here is that I wouldn’t even want to make Power Rangers: The Movie for real. Like if I had to make a Power Rangers movie, this is it. It’s 14 minutes long and it’s violent and this is what I have in me. If they offered me the 200 million version, the PG-13 version, I literally wouldn’t do it. It’s just not interesting to me.” 
In the interview below, Adi Shankar also discussed the reason behind doing the film:
“When I was a child I had two favorite TV shows: the X-Men animated series and Power Rangers. I eventually came to the realization that high school kids weaponized to fight an intergalactic threat would turn those kids into some seriously disturbed adults,”he said.
