Confirmed – Rhett Fisher Denied Cameo on Super Megaforce Due to Budget Constraints

This just in from Jetbolt at our sister site of TFW2005.com!

Rhett Fisher, better known as Ryan the Titanium Ranger in Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, was invited for a cameo role in the upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce season. However, due to apparent budget constraints, Saban Brands rescinded their invitation, and Rhett Fisher will no longer be appearing in Super Megaforce.

We got this from his official tweet:

Guess who was invited to do a cameo on PR Megaforce and then un-invited the next week because of budget restrictions. #majorletdown#titanium

This is a devastating blow to a lot of Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue fans, as the Titanium Ranger was the first USA-exclusive Power Ranger, and many wondered if the suit would make an appearance in Super Megaforce. Since the actor was uninvited, it leads us to believe the suit no longer exists.

How does this strike you? Did you want Rhett Fisher to be part of Super Megaforce? Could you care less? What's this say about Saban Brands and just how far, or how little, they're interested in going for this upcoming anniversary season?

DISCUSS!

A few things that bug me:

1) Here's a guy who WANTS to come back, WAS EXCITED TO COME BACK, yet Steve Cardenas REJECTS the offer because of the lack of money. Love how some actors can't get enough money to justify going, yet others are excited to (for probably even less) and then are told tough luck.

2) Does this mean there's others who are going to have their offers rescinded as well?

This sucks. This sucks a lot. I loved Rhett Fisher as Ryan.

C'mon saban! Don't do this to the titanium ranger! He's an american-made power ranger and he shouldn't be treated like this!

This fucking sucks, I love The Titanium Ranger, I hope he does come back.

Man, this blows. Ryan was one of the best parts of that show.

I wonder if the fact that there's no Gokaiger footage of the Titanium suit plays into this any.

What the fuck.

He was invited, and then, after 2 others rejected the call (Thus meaning that there's 2 more people who don't need to get paid) he was booted due to budget restraints?

I'm genuinely curious now. How much were they offering Steve and Erin? I'm gonna stop hating because the problems with pay have cut 3 characters now.

Well, we know that Steve and Erin reportedly turned it down due to relatively low offers from Saban. And now we know that Saban is rescinding offers to lower tier characters (I love Rhett/Ryan, I do, but let's face it ... he was around for like 10 episodes). Does this mean they under-estimated how many were interested in returning? Or did they blow all their money on "key cameos"?

When your reason for not having one actor show up is inverted in the same scenario by the same company, I think you have a problem.
I don't even care about Power Rangers, but this sucks. This guy wanted nothing more than to be a part of this anniversary. And when they offer it to two people who reject it, only for they to have to reject someone else, it really doesn't sit right.

You know how mad, Sentai was over at Robo-Knights maker over for Megaforce...? Well I am just that mad now, because of this news. The Titantum ranger was like the MMPR green ranger for me as a child. Ryan was a well done character back in Lightspeed, and I'm just sad that he's not going to make a cameo.

Let's create a "Save Titanium" page, make sure it's linked to Saban. Rhett Fisher deserves to go be on Super Megaforce!
