Dean Israelite, director of the highly-anticipated sci-fi action flick Power Rangers, says the kid-friendly film features a short, but “pivotal” scene that reveals the Yellow Power Ranger is lesbian. Audiences will see Trini (Becky G.), the Yellow Power Ranger, stressed over issues concerning her romantic relationship. Trini’s woes are assumed to be “boyfriend problems,” but are in fact revealed to be “girlfriend problems.”
“For Trini, really she’s questioning a lot about who she is,” Israelite told The Hollywood Reporter. “She hasn’t fully figured it out yet. I think what’s great about that scene and what that scene propels for the rest of the movie is, ‘That’s OK.’ The movie is saying, ‘That’s OK,’ and all of the kids have to own who they are and find their tribe.”
There has been a growing presence of LGBGT characters in print, but Power Rangers marks the first appearance of an openly gay character in a big-budget superhero movie.
The LGBGT storyline in the Lionsgate-produced reboot of the popular ’90s children’s TV show comes after Disney included its first-ever “exclusively gay moment” onscreen in the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast.
The fantasy film, which was released in theaters on March 17, sees the character LeFou (Josh Gad) expressing romantic sentiments toward Gaston (Luke Evans).

I thought they were all pretty gay.
Simon Cowell was so on top of this trend years ago when he made Tinky Winky a gay Tellitubby.
always thought that the telitubbies were baby power rangers
Of all the big budget “revivals to big screen”, this one looks the most cheasy and destined to fail. I don’t care either way, was never a fan.
Ever notice how there are more homos on TV and in the movies than actually exist?
They just have to shove this crap in our face. I really don’t care what two consenting adults do. They will have to explain it to someone far more important than me. I just don’t understand this fanatic desire for everyone to embrace their behavior.
They had to make the one Italian girl on NCIS New Orleans a Lesbian.
even on basic cable you cant get away from it..
I thought the Yellow Power Ranger (the Vietnamese one) was killed in an auto accident.
I guess the lesbian porn version of Wonder Woman doesn’t count.
Why not go all out and change the name to “Power Rump Rangers”.
This mainstreaming of sinful and debauched behavior is not wise not good for our society.
“Simon Cowell was so on top of this trend years ago when he made Tinky Winky a gay Tellitubby.”
Thank god! When Tellitubbies were the thing, my son was always Po.
Dang it, they’ve queered the power rangers.
We’ll see. After many viciously lied about beauty and the beast. Credibility is questionable.
