A new image from the upcoming Power Rangers movie has been revealed. Posted on Twitter as part of a Valentine's Day marketing campaign, the image shows Hunger Games actress Elizabeth Banks as the evil Rita Repulsa.

As we've known for a long time now, the new Repulsa costume is not at all similar to what saw on the '90s TV show. This new image is pretty striking and provides a full-body look at the new costume and Repulsa's staff. Take a look (via CBM):

As part of the Valentine's Day Power Rangers marketing effort, Repulsa took over the movie's Twitter account and made mean remarks such as this one:

Power Rangers opens in theaters on March 24, 2017, and is directed by Dean Israelite (Project Almanac). It stars Dacre Montgomery, Naomi Scott, RJ Cyler, Becky G, and Ludi Lin as the Rangers. Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) portrays the Rangers' mentor, Zordon.

If the film is a success, the series could span up to seven movies.

The newest trailer was released in January--watch it here. Power Rangers is produced by Lionsgate, the film company behind big-name franchises such as The Hunger Games and John Wick, among others.

A multiplayer fighting game called Power Rangers: Legacy Wars is coming out alongside the movie for mobile devices in March. Another game, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Mega Battle, launched in January for PS4, Xbox One, and PC with basically no fanfare.
