What happens

Space Squad (スペース・スクワッド, Supēsu Sukuwaddo) is a set of two V-Cinema movies, first released in Japanese theaters on June 17, 2017 while DVD and Blu-Ray releases were made on separate dates. It features the crossover between 2012 Metal Hero Series movie Space Sheriff Gavan: The Movie and the twenty-eighth Super Sentai Series entry Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger, both works are distributed by Toei Company. In addition, past actors from Metal Hero Series are also set to appear as guests in the films. Both films were directed by Koichi Sakamoto and written by Naruhisa Arakawa, who previously worked in Space Sheriffs: Next Generation. Another work from Space Sheriff Gavan was planned since 2015, but production was moved to 2016 due to Sakamoto's scheduling conflicts. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
