After more than two years in development, everything is ready for this Netflix series based on a cult pop culture franchise. Characters that rocked the childhoods of millions of thirty-year-olds.
The year 2024 is far from over for Netflix! Beverly Hills Cop 4 will be one of the next highlights. A film that will be released exclusively on the platform and nowhere else from July 3, 2024. Will the company with the red N succeed in bringing the cult trilogy from the 80s back to the market? It’s up to the subscribers to decide in a few days. The SVOD service has also been working on a 90s saga for some time, but after a decision by the brand owner, everything was suddenly stopped.
A Netflix series with a discarded license from the 90s
Netflix has made a habit of reviving old hits from the past that still resonate in people’s minds. A few weeks apart, the platform offered two new films: Nicky Larson and Ultraman. And there are many more examples of this kind. Amid the resurrection of old franchises, we note the recent return of Power Rangers with the Cosmic Fury series and Power Rangers: Always to the Future. A 58-minute film to mark the 30th anniversary of the original television show that shook the childhoods of millions of people. After these two new projects, Netflix should have continued with a reboot of the live-action series. You can forget.
According to data from TVLinethe new Power Rangers series in development at Netflix is no longer available. The media does not give a reason, but points out that Hasbro Entertainment has left the project AND the license under its arm. The toy company is therefore looking for another partner and will take a different direction for this Power Rangers series. However, Netflix had tried to make a good deal by recruiting Jenny Klein, co-producer of Daisy and the Six. Jonathan Entwistle, co-creator of “The End of the F***ing World” and “I Am Not Okay With This”, directed this project.
When the Power Rangers franchise was validated more than two years ago, Entwistle was even set to oversee the development of films and series for Netflix. So there won’t be any “Go, Go Power Rangers!” anytime soon.
