“Power Rangers” was finally released in March, and the film seems to have been well received by fans and critics alike for the most part. The powers that be had high hopes for future sequels, but it appears the sequels may be in jeopardy, as the film underperformed at the box office.
We’ll have to wait and see what the future holds for the franchise, but one way or another, Jason David Frank is still out and about keeping the legacy of the Green Ranger alive.
Jason David Frank proudly waves the Power Rangers flag high, and he had to shoot two different cameos for the reboot film. Jason recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about his cameos, and he says for the first one he grew out a ponytail, but unfortunately it was cut from the movie.
“The first cameo we did was cut. Me and Amy were filming in the Krispy Kreme. I grew a ponytail out for that. I was thinking, ‘If I grow the ponytail out, I’ll shock the fans when they see me.’ We shot a scene there with Rita [Elizabeth Banks], and we were dressed in green and pink.”
After filming the cameo, he cut off the ponytail, but there’s hope that the original cameo might be included as part of the film’s home release.
“Power Rangers” will be released on digital HD on June 13, and DVD and Blu-Ray on June 27.
Five ordinary teens must become something extraordinary when they learn that their small town of Angel Grove – and the world – is on the verge of being obliterated by an alien threat. Chosen by destiny, our heroes quickly discover they are the only ones who can save the planet. But to do so, they will have to overcome their real-life issues and before it’s too late, band together as the Power Rangers.
