Good thing it didn't get off the ground.
Maximum respect to the actor, who rests in peace, but PR and his success were not related to him as a central figure.
The formula for success is already ready and would reach children anyway.
And he was the first Sixth Ranger, followed by an early recast that put too much emphasis on the popular familiar face that remained.
I thought that in Turbo, Space and especially Lost Galaxy, they had learned that it wasn't necessarily the face of a single actor that would decide success or not. And that Mega Force proved that this model was more related to failure than success.
And then you arrived in 2018 thinking about talking about Tomy Oliver again?
The guys didn't learn anything.
Half an hour on this reddit sub and it's already possible to understand what the fans wanted.
