She has been cast alongside Liam Hemsworth and Chloe Moretz who will be playing as the Red and Pink Power Rangers respectively in the upcoming MMPR movie set to be released in 2016.
I'm really excited to see Meryl Streep's performance as Rita. I loved MMPR as a kid but unfortunately the show has become so dated that when I tried re-watching it on Netflix I couldn't even get through the first episode. However, I'm kind of excited to see this movie now and hope that it's actually good. Rita was actually one of my favorite characters and casting an A-list celebrity like Streep as her has me very interested in this.

The cast is shaping up nicely. Streep is amazing, a legend. Liam is a bonafide star. Moretz WILL be the top female movie star for many years to come.
Really liking this.

I don't believe any of that.. I had to do some digging just to find anything you mentioned.
Doubt any of it holds truth.

It's a movie and she's in it so she'll get nominated for an Oscar.

I'd be interested in it. The short film that just came out called POWER/RANGERS was awesome.

I also had to dig to find it. Strange. Don't believe it.

If true what a bizarre cast.

There's no way this is confirmed yet. Names like Hemsworth and Streep would be breaking all over the major sites.

I'd be up for that; the POWER/RANGERS short film was fantastic IMO...more of that, with Van Der Beek, Sackhoff and Yun Lee, please.

Wow if this is true because they are serious about making this awesome then if they actually got Streep to play the villain!
I loved Rita in the original show so I hope she does her justice (as a big Streep fan I expect her to).

I thought Hemsworth and Moretz have been tied to the film since last fall. I don't know why people are acting surprised. Jason David Frank just said in that video he did commenting on the Dawson/Starbuck video that he was going to be in this new movie as well. It has a July 2016 release date last time I heard. Which means casting and production are probably ramping up as we speak. Lionsgate is obviously tied to Hemsworth through Hunger Games. It makes perfect sense.
I didn't see the Streep thing, but I don't think it's that far fetched. The script is probably going to be pretty good since it's the X-Men First Class duo. It's not like Saban can't afford to pay Streep.
Seems perfectly believable to me. I expect Power Rangers to be the next big franchise behind Divergent.

If I was 5 I would be interested in this movie. Since I am 25, I don't have any intention of seeing a MMPR movie. On the other hand Gene Snitsky was cast in an unrelated MMPR movie www.imdb.com/title/tt3133380 |

Moretz and Hemsworth were nothing more than rumors, and this appears to be the same thing. They could all very well be in it, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet. Last time Moretz was asked about the project, she said she had not auditioned and didn't even know if there was interest.

I just hope the movie is nothing like that fan film with Dawson. That thing was laughably bad.

For one thing, Meryl Streep is really boring and gets high off the smell of her own farts. I actively avoid her movies regardless of the story, director, writer, producer or cast.
For another, seriously? Power Rangers? I can't believe there are fans of that show.

Power Rangers has a target demographic of a 5 year old kid. Most people who grew up watching the show will have zero interest in the movie |

No one is "connected" to the new reboot of MMPR.. If Liam Hemsworth was in serious talks, we'd know.. Why? Because of The Hunger Games.. Same with Chloe Moretz..
Those 2 are big young names in the industry.. If they were signed on OR about to sign on to a franchise like Power Rangers, believe me.. We'd know by now.. It would have been in Variety or on one of the many websites that leak news early.
