‘Power Rangers’ Brings First Openly Gay Superhero to Silver Screen (Yellow Power Ranger is Lesbo)
Brietbart News ^ | 20 march 2017 | Jerome Hudson

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).

Whether you realize it or not, the original Power Rangers were already ‘gayed up’.
David Yost, who played “Billy” the Blue Ranger, was gay. They kept it quiet, Burberry the series after co planning that everyone from the producers down to his fellow actors were discriminating against him because of his orientation.

Let’s redo that last line, okay?

He left the series because he complained that everyone from the producers down to his fellow actors were discriminating against him because of his orientation.

Find their tribe? Is he saying homosexuality replaces family?
