Finally, Legend of the White Dragon is set to see its big screen release after years of waiting, crowdfunding and dedication on part of the film’s creators. The independent superhero film is scheduled to see theatrical release on August 28th, 2026 in selected North American cinemas. As if poetry of the time, Legend of the White Dragon film release was scheduled to fall on National Power Ranger Day. Such a date was chosen due to the great significance of this day to the film. The film was made as an act of love fueled by tenacity and high respect for its audience base.
At the heart of this movie lies a tale that carries far more emotional weight than those found in average superhero films. The storyline revolves around a man named Erik Reed, who was previously an acclaimed hero by the name of the White Dragon. He becomes an outcast after a disastrous fight makes his true identity known and turns people against him, causing him to spend years trying to restore his reputation. Despite having many characters from the Power Rangers franchise and being reminiscent of a Power Ranger film, it does not belong to the franchise.

Among the veterans are Jason Faunt, Ciara Hanna, and Cerina Vincent from the Power Rangers franchise.
