JDF WATCH

  • A KickStarter from Tammie Frank, wife of Jason David Frank, is asking $200,000 to fund a documentary called “Jason David Frank: An Intimate Look into Your Hero”. The documentary “explores his life and legacy while promoting suicide awareness and mental health.” With only 11 days to go and only 8 backers, it seems like Ranger Nation is tired of funding Power Rangers actor-related projects.

OFFICIAL MERCH

  • SuperX has some new Power Rangers Workout Gear including:
    • Green Ranger Pullover Gen. 2

BEHIND THE SCENES

  • A year after the release of Power Rangers Cosmic Fury, Simon Bennett was interviewed by Blue Screen Reveals. In the interview, Simon talked about ideas for a 31st season that will never happen and that the fandom was totally normal about online:

“I came up with a pitch for a possible Season 31, which never went anywhere. It was a fully fledged kind of bible document, and within it were types of Rangers that I would like to see in the future. I would have liked to have seen a plus-size Power Ranger. I would have liked to have seen a Power Ranger in a wheelchair that could transform into some kind of very cool fighting tool when that Ranger morphed. I would have liked to have seen a non-binary Power Ranger. That was actually something that we were kind of setting up … It was going to be [J.J. Oliver], Tommy Oliver’s teenage child who was established in canon in [Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel Episode 10] Dimensions in Danger. We saw potentially Minh from Once & Always and the non-binary character putting together a team of misfits. It was an idea that never actually went anywhere.”
