Power Rangers comes to a End


Well, it has finally happened. Disney has decided to stop shooting on Power Rangers. Executive Producer Sally Campbell says, "at this stage we will not be shooting another season." My heart goes out to the hardworking cameramen, crew, editors, suit actors, etc. My insider says that they had announced the end in the pre-production of Power Rangers RPM and this season was not even gonna happen. There is a rumor the Animated series may still be in the works. I have closed the polls about Shinkenger and Power Rangers. It humbles me that Shinkenger will not become victim of American butchering. But who knows? Kamen Rider Ryuki took 6 years to be adapted.

THERE WILL BE NO LIVE-ACTION POWER RANGERS FOR 2010.

Here is an interesting post from Namihei Koshige, the suit actor for most of the female Power Rangers for the past 15 years. This picture includes him (in middle), Adelaide Kane (Tenaya 7) and some of the crew, I do not know who exactly. The post is about the wrap-up party for Power Rangers.

This is picture has Koichi Sakamoto, stunt director and producer of Power Rangers recieving a card and flowers at the wrap-up party for Power Rangers RPM. This was posted March 30, 2009, Namihei reflects on his 14 years being on the show since 1995. I can not translate it, but I got most of this from a google translator, which isn't 100%.

A revision a.k.a. supplement to Disney A to Z: The Official Encyclopedia, has been made by Disney's head archivist Dave Smith notes that "production on new episodes ceased in 2009." Other than a CEO or public relations person producing an actual statement, this is probably will be as official as it gets. Most of the fandom still denies the franchise ending and want an 'official' statement.
