AceShowbiz - We've got a first look at Elizabeth Banks as Rita Repulsa in "Power Rangers" before, but new set photos reveal the villain's secondary costume. Instead of a green one which she dons in the official image, the leaked pictures from the set show her wearing a black outfit.
Rita's secondary outfit consists of a torn skirt and a top which is seemingly made of ropes sewn together to cover her chest part. She looks menacing with her eye makeup. Words are, it will be the costume she first makes her debut in.
Rita is seen confronting Naomi Scott's Kimberly Hart in one of the images, before leaning to kiss her. Sources, however, say that the scene that was shot in Steveston on Wednesday, April 27 actually features [SPOILER ALERT!] Rita draining the life out of the five Rangers.
