When we think of Power Rangers now, some of us might picture spandex-clad heroes striking funny poses before transforming or walking away stylishly from explosions without a scratch. But despite all that, they still hold a dear place in our childhood memories, as we did all of that ourselves as kids. And it looks like Disney has something in mind to reignite that nostalgia.

Recent reports from The Wrap, hint that a live-action Power Rangers show is in the works at Disney+. The news has left fans both old and new excited, especially after how cool they found the 2017 Power Rangers movie.

Hilarious fan reactions to the possibilities of a Power Rangers show

Fans were quite amused by the reports and wasted no time sharing their hilarious reactions online.

"They're all live action," a fan said.

Wait a minute, did that headline just say Disney+ is working on a live-action Power Rangers show? But haven’t all Power Rangers been live-action since 1993? That’s like saying Cartoon Network is working on a cartoon!

"So when do the avengers show up? because disney will cross it over eventually," wondered another.

So Disney+ is apparently working on a live-action Power Rangers show, and Disney also owns Marvel now. Does that mean we might see the Avengers show up in Power Rangers too? Looks like this user might be on to something.

Now that Power Rangers is on Disney, we might just see one of the Rangers doing the "And you're watching Disney Channel" intro in his own style. Here's White Ranger from Power Rangers: Dino Thunder giving it a shot!

"I literally watched the 2017 one a few days ago and here we go I may have done something to the universe," a fan wrote.

Looks like this user may have put the making of a new Power Rangers series out there in the universe by recently watching the Power Rangers movie from 2017. So now we know who to thank, or blame in case it doesn't turn out as expected!

"Unless you’re getting Michale Bay or the Russo Bros. Keep it in your back pocket Disney," commented another.

C'mon Disney, you have the Russo Brothers working for you on the new Avengers movies. Tell them to take a break and direct Power Rangers! Or better yet, catch hold of Michael Bay and make it an explosion-filled extravaganza!

Disney+ seems to be all set to invoke some nostalgia for all the 1990s and 2000s kids while also building a new fanbase with its new Power Rangers series that is reportedly in the works. So looks like it's time to get those morphers out and strike a pose!
