A Masterclass Actor

The interesting thing about the original Power Rangers gang is that despite their successes, only a few of them really managed to follow their dreams of becoming A-list actors. Sure, the show was cheesy as hell, but those teenagers and twenty-year-olds really played their parts to perfection. Especially Walter Jones, who like we said brought such life to his role that he stole every scene.

In the end, Walter Jones actually only lasted a year and a half as the Black Ranger, eventually walking from the set after a contract dispute couldn't be resolved. That hasn't harmed his acting career, though, which has been nothing short of stellar. Aside from eventually returning to Power Rangers for the odd episode, he's also been in Family Matters, Step by Step, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Moesha, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Early Edition, NYPD Blue, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, The Shield and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Not bad at all, right?
