Becky G will play the first ever openly gay superhero in what is believed to be a first in film history. In the movie, Trini, the yellow ranger, will touch on relationship problems with her girlfriend.

Director Dean Israelite said Trini’s “girlfriend problems” are “pivotal” to the film’s plot. He told the Hollywood Reporter: “For Trini, really she’s questioning a lot about who she is.
