In an odd twist, she soon found herself re-dubbing her own lines as Rita when Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was broadcast in Japan after the show became a surprise hit in America.
Barbara Goodson
Barbara Goodson played voice of Empress Rita Repulsa in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, and Power Rangers in Space.
