Rangercrew Member Fury Diamond once again breaks some news for Super Megaforce.

Not counting the Samurai Rangers, it seems that only 10 past actors have signed contracts to reappear on Super Megaforce.

Earlier, Jason Faunt has confirmed that he will be reprising his roll as Wesely Collins, in addition to David Slavin and Jason David Frank whom both confirmed that they will be making cameos.

Fury Diamond’s exact post is as follows:

One of my sources has confirmed that 10 past cast members have signed contracts and already completed their fitting. Some of these cast members are not active with the fandom and Power Rangers conventions. Jason Faunt confirmed earlier today and Danny Slavin may be one of the other cast members. The Samurai Cast members are not included in the 10 members.

Several cast members got the invite but didn’t get the uninvite letter. They are waiting for production to make a decision. These cast members are very excited to return.

My guess is that the production team only allocated for 10 past cast members.

Update:

Fury Diamond has now confirmed the 10 actors that will be appearing in Super Megaforce, from Diamond’s exact Post here is the list of confirmed Actors that are gonna appear in Super Megaforce:

I got off the phone with my source with a fun list of confirmed cameos. I am waiting confirmation for the final one. They said that only 10 members were confirmed. I don’t know whether they are planning for additional cameos since several cast members are still waiting for confirmation / uninvites.

Here’s some good news.

According to our friends at RangerCrew.com, we have updates on three of the actors who were in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.

Danny Slavin who played Leo the Red Ranger in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy accepted the cameo invite to appear in Power Rangers Super Megaforce. Whether he is still attending or if he received an uninvite E-mail is unknown at the time of this news update.

Valerie Vernon who played Kendrix the Pink Ranger in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy had to turn down the cameo invite, as she’s a mother and did not receive enough time in advance to plan accordingly. She states:

One month wasn’t enough time..especially when you have kids. If I was given two to three months to plan for it I could have gone. I’m so bummed! I was looking forward to seeing some of my old friends! Maybe they’ll do another one soon! I’d love to be in the next one!”

Finally, Reggie Rolle who played Damon the Green Ranger in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy also received the invite and was still considering whether or not to attend as he was given very little advance warning before filming was to begin.

As always check our comprehensive list of returning and not-returning actors for Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

Over the course of the last 8 hours there have been more cast updates about the upcoming anniversary season of Power Rangers Super Megaforce. For starters, we’ll continue with the most famous of the franchise, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

David Yost, who played Billy the Blue Ranger in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, has tweeted that he chose not to go back to Power Rangers.

Megaforce=No 4 me. They lost me when the offer started “Dear Power Ranger” & had several grammatical errors. #donewithabusiverelationships

Through our good friend Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com, we’ve also learned that Sally Martin, who played Tori the Blue Wind Ranger in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, as well as Melanie Vellajo, who played Madison the Blue Ranger in Power Rangers Mystic Force, did not receive invites to appear as a cameo. Fury Diamond confirms it in this tweet here.

And finally, Dan Ewing, Dillon the Black Ranger from Power Rangers RPM, let his fans know that he did not receive an invite either.

UPDATE: Not that this comes as any surprise, but Mr. Yellow was able to discover that none of the Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers were invited to attend. Check out the info by clicking here.

UPDATE #2: Caitlin Murphy, who played Ronny the Yellow Ranger in Power Rangers Operation Ovedrive, received an invite BEFORE the “mass E-mail” sent out by Saban Brands, but has never heard back from production.

We’ve updated our comprehensive list of actors returning and not returning for Super Megaforce. What are your thoughts on the latest developments for casting?

Now we’re not 100% certain on this one, but we’re calling it close enough to call. Today Brand Jay McLaren who played Jack the Red Ranger on Power Rangers S.P.D. responded to Fury Diamond stating that he was not invited for Super Megaforce.

In the tweets that followed, Chris Violette who played Sky Tate the Blue Ranger on Power Rangers S.P.D. joked about how Saban Brands had “dropped them like they’re hot”, and joked with other S.P.D. cast members about flying in to New Zealand anyways and just filming their own reunion.

We also know that Matt Austin who played Bridge the Green S.P.D. Power Ranger was not invited either. While the girls have yet to pipe in regarding their status, seeing as neither live in New Zealand, we just don’t think Saban Brands will have invited any of them to attend.

As for John Tui, (Doggie Kruger, the Shadow Ranger on Power Rangers S.P.D. and Daggeron the Solaris Knight on Power Rangers Mystic Force), we have yet to hear confirmation from him either way but will follow up when we do.

Power Rangers S.P.D. is a beloved season by many fans. What are your thoughts on Saban Brands choosing not to honor their season, or the fans of that season, in the 20th Anniversary “celebration” of Power Rangers Super Megaforce? DISCUSS!

Even though the source material for the upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce showcased what would be the Power Rangers Ninja Storm fighting against, and then alongside the Power Rangers Super Megaforce, it seems that Jonathan Tzachor and the production crew of Power Rangers Super Megaforce are going to go a different route, as it was discovered today that neither Pua Magasiva (Shane the Red Wind Power Ranger of Power Rangers Ninja Storm) or Jason Chan (Cam the Green Samurai Power Ranger of Power Rangers Ninja Storm) were offered invitations to return for Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

Pua Magasiva tweeted his lack of an invitation today, while our friend Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com was kind enough to let us know that Jason Chan was also not invited.

The most curious part about this revelation is just exactly how Super Megaforce will introduce one of the latter Megazords, as the source footage involved the three Wind Power Rangers of Power Rangers Ninja Storm with the Power Rangers Super Megaforce (Gokaigers, technically).

What are your thoughts and feelings regarding the lack of these two great Power Rangers? How is Jonathan Tzachor planning to utilize the footage? Or does this mean we won’t even get the Megazord in question that won’t be named for those not wishing to be spoiled entirely?

This is a day of heart-breaks for many Power Rangers fans as the bad news just continues and continues.

David de Lautour, who played R.J. the Purple Wolf Ranger in Power Rangers Jungle Fury was not invited for a role in Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

One of his counter-parts however, Jason Smith (who played Casey the Red Jungle Fury Ranger), has been spotted on-set and in many Instagram photos with Ciara Hannah, the Yellow Megaforce Ranger.

R.J. was one of the more popular Power Rangers from the Disney era, and especially on Power Rangers Jungle Fury. What are your thoughts about him being left out? Discuss!

For fans of Power Rangers Zeo, it was interesting to see that the mysterious Gold Ranger was an alien being that split in to three separate entities. The actors behind it are actually identical triplets – Tim, Ted, and Tommy DiFilippo. They played the physical body of Trey of Triforia while Brad Hawkins (VR Troopers) played the voice.

Our good friend Fury Diamond at RangerCrew.com let everyone know that the DiFilippo triplets did NOT receive an invitation from Saban Brands to return for Power Rangers Super Megaforce.

Considering Rhett Fisher, the Titanium Ranger from Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue, had his invite rescinded, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that these three were not coming, but it is a little shocking that they didn’t even receive an invitation. They have had a renewed popularity after their appearance at last year’s Power Morphicon.

Sad news for those hoping that Jen, the Pink Ranger from Power Rangers Time Force, would be returning for a cameo in the upcoming Power Rangers Super Megaforce season.

Close friend of Erin Cahill, kalenabear posted the following message at our friends at RangerBoard:

Hung out with Erin (Jen, PRTF) last night and she confirmed that she’ll be out of the country in the last two weeks of May (not in NZ), which is when Super Megaforce would be filming the cameos, per Fury’s message. Then Erin sent me this today, referring to Tokunation’s article,
http://www.tokunation.com/showthread.php?t=43499:

“So, a friend just sent me the article below.
Oh no! I don’t want fans to be upset with me!
I TRULY want to do it, but the show is not Union anymore. The bottom line is I can’t risk union status to do it. :-(. I have been so sad over not being able to. How can I reach out to my fans and let them know?
Xoxo
~E~”

We are saddened to know that one of our favorite Pink Rangers will not be returning for Power Rangers Super Megaforce, but we wish Erin Cahill all the best in her continued and storied career!

Without actually coming out and saying it, Jason David Frank posted a picture on his Instagram of the Power Rangers Megaforce logo. As you may remember from an earlier story, Jason David Frank cancelled his upcoming appearance at Puerto Rico Comic Con 2013, citing an important project out of the country that he couldn’t miss. The dates for Puerto Rico Comic Con 2013 are the same for the Super Megaforce cameo filming dates.

So we’re going to go ahead and call this CONFIRMED – Jason David Frank to Appear in Super Megaforce!
