NEW YORK, NY (August 17, 2023) – It’s Morphin Time! Hasbro’s entertainment studio, eOne, today announced that Power Rangers Cosmic Fury will debut exclusively on Netflix on September 29, 2023, bringing the iconic Mighty Morphin Power Rangers cast member, David Yost, to the galactic-themed series as his original character, Billy Cranston.

SHOW LOGLINE: Lord Zedd has escaped, and this time his rampage extends to the farthest reaches of space! The Rangers need to find new Zords and new powers to face Zedd’s latest threat, and they won’t do so alone. Joined by some familiar faces, they will discover the power of the Cosmic Orbs and become the Cosmic Fury Rangers, armed with new uniforms, new weapons, and an entirely new fleet of Zords! Go Go, Power Rangers!

BILLY CRANSTON – CHARACTER DESCRIPTION: In the beginning of season 30, Billy, the MMPR Blue Triceratops Ranger, joins the Dino Fury Rangers in fighting back against the gravest threat the universe has known.

“Creating the details of this new world for Ranger Academy was a lot of fun for me. If there was anything more enjoyable than that, it would have been to portray the characters’ rich sensibilities and expressions of emotions,” said artist Jo Mi-Gyeong. “I hope everyone will love them just as I fell in love with them.”

RANGER ACADEMY #1 features a main cover by Miguel Mercado (Magic) with variants by Jo Mi-Gyeong and Ejikure (Mighty Morphin Power Ranger/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II).

NEWS – Hasbro Ends Power Rangers Production in New Zealand

According to 1News New Zealand, Hasbro is ending production of Power Rangers in New Zealand after 20 years.

In a statement, Hasbro didn’t say why production was ending, but fan speculation and tweets from executive producer Simon Bennett and writers like Becca Barnes over the past few weeks seems to point to Cosmic Fury being the last live action tv series in the current iteration.

From 1NewsNZ:

“We are committed to keeping Power Rangers fresh by reimagining the brand and how we bring our entertainment content to life for our consumers”, a spokesperson said.

“We’ve been in communication with teams to ensure they are set up for success in their next adventures”, a Hasbro spokesperson said.

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with such incredible and talented teams in New Zealand and plan to keep close for any future projects that may be a fit for Power Rangers or across any other of our future entertainment productions”.

Below is the video 1NewsNZ put together for the story including interviews with Sally Martin (Tori, Power Rangers Ninja Storm), Ria Vandervis (Miratrix, Power Rangers Operation Overdrive) and Teuila Blakely (Power Rangers Beast Morphers).

With 25% tax breaks for filming in New Zealand as well as generating more than $340 million for the local economy, it’s hard to imagine Power Rangers without the setting, crew and cast of New Zealand. Some crew have been with the show for 20 years, including VFX Supervisor Carol Petrie, who was kind enough to be interviewed by Ranger Command back in 2014.

The future remains unclear for Power Rangers after Cosmic Fury, aside from a potential reboot from Jonathan Entwistle and Jenny Klein.
