- I got cast in the role of a lifetime as the Red Ranger in Power Rangers Dino Charge. However, there is a whole side most people don't get to see. In this video, I share the truth about being a Power Ranger.

You never really realize how nice it is having people talk about their experiences on set until they actually do it. It really is nice hearing your experiences.

I’ve always heard how the stuntman had it the hardest. They’re the unsung heroes of this hard job for decades.
Stuntmen Suit actors were working hard since a good amount were already doing Sentai as well
The stuntmen and suit actors including the monsters - the ones where you don't often see their faces except in BTS photos, very true. Great on you for considering them.
Brennan had a lot to explain that he did not get time to mention about Claire or James post power rangers career. Claire got her Master's degree, started in a few movies (Her Worst Nightmare, Stalked by my doctor 2, Hillhead), perform in several plays out in New York, Washington D C, & Idaho, and also musical lessons and packages for upcoming performers.
James has done more acting in New Zealand and he runs his own company, Healthy Artists, in coaching artists for their future opportunities.
Exactly! Can only talk about so much per video haha. But everyone has stayed busy after Dino charge :)
Power rangers is also underrated theme that people like compared to kpop, so I am glad actors are coming out to talk about the dark sides of the industry
Power rangers dino charge is my favourite season ever...and you are my favourite ranger ever❤
@@JohnLee-jw8bj maybe power ranger fans take a baby franchise too seriously
I just finished re-watching dino charge and your channel appeared in my recommended. From what I have seen even after 8-9 years since dino charge, you are still decided to power rangers, which is good because seeing my childhood and favorite red ranger (you) just giving your love to power rangers and your experiences. (again, best red ranger and ranger of all time for me) 😊🔴🦖😊
Simple really! Being a power takes talent, perfection and lots of athleticism
Yeah, I’ve heard how rough nonunion stuff and Power Ranger specifically can be. We appreciate you guys.
This is so cool to see you talk about behind the scenes stuff. You are one of my favorite Red Rangers. And I think I remember seeing you in a Supergirl episode and on American Ninja Warrior.
Thanks! And yes I was on both of those shows :)
Have you ever considered writing a BOOK!? I've always wanted one of the former power rangers to write a book about their experience.
I have actually! Just need to find the time lol. I recently released a fitness app so I am focusing on that at the moment, plus this yt channel lol
@Faraj-bq2mf I don't think he's started yet. He's considered it but hasn't got the time.
@@BrennanMejiaI’d buy it. Assuming it’s not super expensive 😅
Hehehe
Nice, brief insights.
I feel like a lot of the accolades and fame won't be felt until your particular audience grows up and becomes nostalgic. It's not a bad thing, but maybe something to anticipate and prepare for through side-gigs or backup plans (studying, side business, etc).
Agreed, this is how Morphicons became a thing in the first place back in the mid 2000s.
Power Rangers has always been CHEAP. Buy low, sell high. Saban knew this when he started. Jason Frank once said: "Saban and Disney (when they owned PR) are a lot alike: they're both cheap."
Thank you!!!! This is literally not new news.
I hope the reboot isn't cheap
IIRC, that stipend you mentioned for moving to NZ was the key factor in a lot of alumni (especially the older cast members from the Saban Era shows) declining to appear in Megaforce for the Legacy team-up with all of the past teams up to that point.
You My Childhood Hero Of Red Ranger
😎👍🏻❤️🦖🔥
(Power Rangers Dino Charge Your Speech)
I really liked Tyler, and I'm glad to hear that while it was a complicated experience, he ultimately considers it a positive one
Especially hearing how everyone got to enjoy good work after the season ended
Oh I absolutely loved being a ranger! I just want people to realize even dream jobs have their ups and downs :)
Thanks for informing us about your experience Brennan! Really enjoyed hearing the pros and cons of your experience in Power Rangers, loved your red ranger and wish you even more success
Agility, poise, confidence and companionship with your Onset Ranger actors, gave you Brennan all the experience needed!!!. Haim saban's greed from the project was why PR wasn't unionized, it caused pain to some Veteran actors( ask Austin St John & Walter Emmanuel Jones), he never wanted it unionized!!! It won't be that long before the franchise goes out of stock, that he should have leant to union!!! Imagine being hospitalized without proper insurance, bro!!! You have wised up since your seasons have ended, keep it up!!!! It's going to be wild!!!!
You’re full of confidence and positive energy Brennan, those two features are what I think make someone truly an honorable red ranger.
Thank you! I like to look at the positive side of things whenever possible!
@@BrennanMejia I totally agree 🙌🏻
You’re the best red ranger I’ve ever watched and your acting was phenomenal 100%. Keep inspiring people, as you inspired me Brennan💪🏻💪🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love all your videos about power rangers I think your the best red ranger and your doing awesome
Very glad to have found your Chanel and learning more about what it was like filming, I grew up with dino charge as it’s the only season that’s easy to find in the UK and was the first one I have memory of watching so when I saw this title and thumbnail they caught my eye :) 🦖🔴
Brennan out here spilling all the tea 😂
This video reminds me a lot of what Maven is doing with his channel and talking about his experiences with the WWE and what goes on in the background. Awesome video!
As fan of the franchises and the series since childhood, I've had some inkling questions tucked aways at the back of my mind and surprisingly, you've actually answered some of the bts questions I've often wondered about after each season was done and hoped that maybe one day any one of the rangers from at least one of the seasons could or will either write a book or a UA-cam video covering exactly that ❤ and well, you answered that hope 😊 thank you Brennan, I hope to see you again at PowerMorphicCon in Pasadena 🥰😊
Power rangers Dino charge is my favorite power ranger show!
Glad to hear that despite the difficulties you're still positive on the experience. After some of those challenges, I don't think anyone would blame you if you were somewhat embittered to it all.
Your one of my favorites power ranger ❤❤ I've been watching every power rangers rangers show 💪🏻 i would really be happy if you reply to me btw will you ever come back as a ranger 😊 i would to have an answer to that,love you brennan you will be your favorite power ranger ❤🎉
The thing im intrested abt hearing the most is the process of filming the morphing sequence
We could do a video on that :)
What if you put a documentary Behind the scenes of your story before Dino charge/ Super Charge Where i became... 9/ 10 years old i think... i remember likewise about my 9th and 10th birthday.. i watched all of the episodes when I was both 9 and 10 years. Im kinda in the bits of recapping what I watched and should i perfer.. You know.. Super Sentai as continuation of my love for Power rangers and apparently Masked Rider. cus you didnt knew you had a crossover with a fruit samurai Warrior Kamen Rider Gaim. 🍊 And I gotta say my rating on dino charge/super charge in 2nd place
1st is obviously Mystic Force (2006) Cus im in to magic and Creatures from medieval times. 🐉⚔🔮🧝♂️🧙♂️🧚♀️
Brennan you was my favorite power ranger in Dino charge
@BrennanMejia your amzaing actor. keep doing your best I hope to see u in differnt show or moives. I miss JDF i cried so hard hero
You can tell they didn't pay well enough for these recent shows - even the writing was way tooo brain dead even for a show meant for kids. The writing alone was a good indication..
It’s brilliant how passionately you talk about your life experiences it really comes across on camera how genuine of a person you are thanks for being awesome Brennan
Definitely one of the best power rangers series that i love behind spd, rpm, and mighty morphin
Yeah. mine too.
This is my favorite power rangers
TV show
Thanks Brennan
Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨
I'm glad you took the time out of your day to tell us this man.
Thank you for taking the time to watch!
I think the guys from Mighty Morphin probably set the president for what it was going to be like, I assume the pay got better e.g. reason 3 cast members were replaced red, yellow and black. Other than that, you can sorta see what's happened to everyone before so you know what's coming, like you said, bitter sweet. I think the most well known would be Jason Frank aka Tommy Oliver (may he RIP), I think he probably became the most recognized of any season of rangers.
Well really after MMPR it was only one season up until RPM. The two season formula started with Samurai. Also, how are u filming this? Do u have a cameraman?
Your almost at 100k subs😊
So close!
Your one of my favorite red rangers
I was the 100th like
This video is very informative. Thank you for sharing your experience
hi brennan Meija, I've been watching you since you released Power Ranger Dino Charge and you're still an inspiration to me and I wanted you and the production of Power Rangers Dino Charge to do more seasons I was very sad when it ended😥😪 and I even made a morpher made of cardboard hahaha. My name is Gabriel and I'm from Brazil, Espírito Santo, could you send me a signed morpher? I love you and I admire you so much bye 👋👋
I've never been this early 😂! I wanted to say that you are one of my top fav rangers man! You are so inspiring! I myself actually auditioned for a Dino themed season, aka Dino Fury, using advice from your audition tips video! I hope you are doing well! -Nate
That’s so cool! The auditions are always fun :)
not getting anything from the sales of your likeness is dirty my brother; but hearing you'd be a ranger again? heck yeah. Its like they say: Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger💪💪 you and the team are heroes for putting in that work
Have you watched last year's season of Super sentai: Ohsama Sentai King'ohger, or did you at least heard about their crossover with Dino charge's sentai counter part, Kyoryuger?
Brennan, you were seriously an amazing red ranger and brought so much energy to the show! If you weren’t the red ranger, what color would you choose next?
I want to talk to you on a call 😢😢
I've got a question and its because Power Rangers Legacy Wars didnt add you
Why did lionsgate not add you in legacy wars
I primarily grew up with Samurai, Dino Charge, and Beast Morphers, but Dino Charge definitely is my favorite out of the three. Thanks for sharing your experiences! Can't wait to hear more from you!
I watch a video of a guy who bought his own figure and the cashier didn't notice. People also mentioned if there show goes to Netflix or Hulu theres no money from that.I watched a lot of the behind the scenes about Power Rangers and found out how long the writers have been on the show and that a kick in the face was something they stopped like chair shots to the head in wrestling. Some people didn't have time to pack for travel after they got casted.But It's all about a passion project and living the dream and having a action figure of yourself.For the figure did they scan you or take from a photo?
They took it from a photo haha
So really nailing the accuracy but I understand with body parts be recycled more often then they would want to admit.Especially with the first Power Rangers figures.
YOOOO ITS THE DINO CHARGE RED RANGER I LOVE THIS MAN BRO
Same here love him ❤🎉
Power rangers forever
Wassup red power ranger from Dino charge haha. You literally were my childhood and my brothers actually lol and we both loved you from Dino charge as u had such a good leading role as red power ranger and ur small amount of stunt scenes like you vs doom wing was epic!l anyway Dino charge is me and my brothers favourite 100% but I agree being an actor is HELLA BUSY!
It’s awesome 😎 don’t tell laxybox
I love Dino charge❤
Hello bro great content am a fan of u.. ill be posting pr dino charge soon season 1 and 2
You make me feel nostalgic. Thank you for for the lovely memories Brennan.
This is funny because I just started binge watching some of the newer power rangers series I haven’t seen,and Dino charge is started to become my “newer” favorite.
Its so nostalgic
One of my favorite power rangers!!!
So you should know when l was at kinder garden l have a lunch bag with the blue ranger and the black ranger and the green and red which you ranger because when l was a kid l would always watch all the time and l would always rewatch it again which is dino charge which l will watch it again now
Hey man im robin on your twitch i really enjoyed this insight i remember loving this as a kid dino charge i fell in love with Never got enough of it it genuinely was my favourite show back then here in uk it was on a tv channel pop i remember dino charge would repeat i would watch the episodes again anyway then superdino charge came out i would watch every week to get new episodes it was my absolute favourite i will never forget what u guys did for me i love u all and am grateful to have spoken with u and played smash with u also!
2 views in 1 minute, power ranger fell off 😭
I your the best red ranger ❤️ forever red
Brennan not only you are an amazing youtuber but you are an amazing power ranger I used to watch you since I was a kid now I am a grown now I really remember the power ranger Dino charger series it was epic you rock bro keep up the amazing work as always
Yes Power rangers was banned here in NZ for the longest time even though a lot of it was filmed here. It's a shame that it's not being filmed here anymore it was good for our film industry. I lived pretty close to the studio where they filmed parts of them too
I love hearing this kind of personal behind-the-scenes experience, thank you for posting this!
When i find out your channel first thing i have done is subscribe because you are my childhood hero ❤😊the last amazing season of PR i have watched is dino charge .. missing thoses days😢
Great Video. In some ways I thought of actors as contract work, which is most of my career. Get hired and the contract is a 2 year contract, so going in you know when it starts and when it ends.
Hopefully hasbro bring back power rangers series with cross over 4 to 5 red dino rangers
In my home town, I have been getting type cast as the comedic relief, and the disabled characters. I got old man jenkins, then crutchie the year after, type casting is real...
i love videos like this. Keep it up man
I literally finished watch every episode of power rangers dino charge and power rangers dino super charge for the second time
Did you know I’m a helicopter?
I love u so much tyler
That totally blows that you dont get any residuals from merch/toy sales
I’m an actor and stuntee id love to have a shot at power rangers
I have always love watching power rangers Dino charge. I hope one day to meet y’all. My friend also
loves power rangers Dino charge. I am hoping to meet you and your power ranger friends one day.
I need to watch your season.
dude, you're still an awesome ranger even after Dino Charge, keep it up!
Brennan you were my favorite power ranger of all time when I saw Dino charger
8:40 Weirdly that makes sense. Your team is full of Time Force fans, so you may appreciate this: I still remember how I was playing Black Ops II and learned that Karma was played by Erin Cahill, aka Jenn Scott, and thought "Huh, I can't remember a single project of hers in between those two."
Super rad video. I'm always interested to see how Power Rangers actors feel and what their experience was, growing up watching it and being a Sentai fan into adulthood. I enjoy learning about how it worked, how it felt, and what you did in the process!
A real hero with or without the spandex. Loving the fitness app
1:27 I just had a mental shock! As in close to 10,000? Whoooo!
3:47 Well, that's a downer.
7:05 That's a downer as well. Got to pick and choose which sites to go to.
Damn, they still paying power rangers actors like crap
Hey Just Wondering Do You Still Talk To Anyone From Power rangers like anyone rangers if so can u tell me who u can use their real name idc but pls also use their name for the show so I will now thank you
Another great video!
I’m loving these insights into the show!
The most important video for me thank you Brennan Mejia.
Yeah power ranger actors particularly in the beginning weren’t treated the best I think it improved a bit but it isn’t the bedy
I love your Videos man
Brennan Mejia you are a great power ranger
Thank you!

I met Brennan once at a comic con. Pretty cool guy.
loving THESE!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I just appreciate how honest you are man. It's rare! You have my sub!
Hey Brennan, if Power Rangers continues, how would you feel if they decide to make their own footage instead of using Super Sentai footage?
you deserve a million dollars.
As someone who has worked and lived abroad for more than a year, at a young age (25 to 27). I completely understand the homesick feeling, it hits you out of nowhere even when you have a connection to him or have amazing new friends.
The mental toll is so much more difficult than you expect and you Co stsnrly ask yourself "why am I doing this".
Best red ranger ever!
