Effie Trinket just got more reptilian.

We heard earlier that Elizabeth Banks had signed on to play the villain in Lionsgate’s reboot of Power Rangers. People.com revealed a first look at the actress in her new avatar this morning.

The look is drastically different from the original show. Banks herself notes that it’s a “modern and edgy re-imagining of the original Rita Repulsa.”

This is the first time Banks is playing a villain.
