Was Rita supposed to have Bandora's history?
Do you think Rita was originally intended to have a similar backstory to Bandora? I mean before season 2 and 3 gave us Zedd and Vile?

Re: Was Rita supposed to have Bandora's history?
I don't think she ever would have had as dark a history as Bandora. If they stuck with the Zyu3 footage, perhaps a toned down version of Bandora's backstory would have been used.

probably not there were plans to use Kai but previous scripts that mentioned him just made him seem like a monster that looked human

On the one hand I think that would be cool but on the other unless one of the writers or producers said it I doubt it.
Then again I also would have liked something similar to the Lionsgate movie. |

I think Rita was originally just supposed to be an evil witch that wanted to rule the galaxy. I don't think she would have been a former Princess during the dinosuar era. And really wasn't supposed to be from Earth at all.

Its possible that they could have when that route. Wasn't Kai originally going to be included at some point?

Re: Was Rita supposed to have Bandora's history?
yes but as I said scripts that mentioned him all treat him like a typical monster there's nothing to indicate that he would be her son in Power Rangers

Didn't Kai look like a kid though?

I think Rita is her own character. Even if you are doing a backstory just based on season 1 Rita.

Kai would most definitely have been a monster or a minion. Rita wasn't going to have Bandora's complicated backstory. It didn't fit the story MMPR was trying to tell.
