We got our first glimpse of what the character will look like, and it's nothing if not a radical divergence from what fans will remember of the original Rita. Gone is the rather baggy brown outfit adorned with black spikes and a gigantic metallic hat, swapped out for a form-fitting, spiked green number, dyed hair and facial make-up to give the effect of protruding facial bones.
It certainly looks creepy as hell, and while a major shift from the expected, it'll do nothing if not make this Power Rangers its own beast rather than a lazy homage.
