Jason David Frank, the original Green Power Ranger has died. RIP
Jason David Frank, legendary star in the long-running Power Rangers and more action franchises, has died at the age of 49. While in the latter half of his career Frank had been more focused on original efforts such as the Legend of the White Dragon project, many who became familiar with the star most likely recognize more of his work as Tommy Oliver in the massive Power Rangers franchise.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers co-star Walter Emmanuel Jones took to social media this morning to express his grief and disbelief, saying that he"can't believe it, and"My heart is sad to have lost another member of our special family." Frank took on the role of the White Ranger with the second and third seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the Red Zeo Ranger in Power Rangers Zeo, and finally the Red Turbo Ranger in Power Rangers Turbo's movie and TV series, before retiring from the role.
Early in his career, Frank's youthful good looks landed him small parts on series like Sweet Valley High and Family Matters. After becoming synonymous with Tommy Oliver, Frank's action-hero cred took him to roles like Fall Guy: The John Stewart Story and as Bloodshot in Ninjak vs. the Valiant Universe. He also became well-known as a geek culture figure, appearing in Making Fun: The Story of Funko and his own websires My Morphing Life.
