‘Power Rangers’ star Jason David Frank dies at the age of 49

Sunday, Frank’s manager Justine Hunt released a statement confirming his passing. She did not specify the reason for death or the date he died, but she begged for the privacy of his family and friends as they “come to terms with the loss of such a great human being during this terrible time.”

Walter Emmanuel Jones, the original Black Power Ranger who played alongside Frank in “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers,” expressed his disbelief on Instagram.

n addition, he portrayed him in the films “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie” and “Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie” and made a brief appearance in the 2017 revival of “Power Rangers.”
