Simon Bennett also revealed that when he signed on in 2019, he only saw himself giving Power Rangers approximately 4 years in foresight. He also stated that the show requires a big amount of sustained output, which is supported by his activity as he shows how much he cares about the work of his team and the fans that love the franchise. He also stated that now thinks it’s time to “feed the soul again”, which he plans to start by traveling with his wife later this year to take in theatre and art.
Bennett is one of only a few creators that could be called a real-life Morphin Master as he kept the fire burning for fans over the years. His presence on social media has been wholesome as he shares his excitement for everything the Power Rangers team has worked on, while also being polite and respectful to all views. Bennett leaving will also have a bigger impact than fans realize as many previews were shared by the executive producer himself, including previews of the Cosmic Fury Morpher and behind-the-scenes images.
The Executive Producer has also shared his view on the negativity that some fans have addressed, which he beautifully addresses with kindness and understanding. Pessimism directed at Cosmic Fury has been believed to be due to the unused adaptation of Uchu Sentai Kyuranger’s team but states that Power Rangers is its own entity and that many should watch before condemning.
