Yes, he is. He's an Asian-Pacific Islander... which you'd know if you read the tweet GoseiWonder linked to.
I'm kind of bummed out, I was looking forward to the diversity of this team! There would have been three Asian men, a black woman, and a Latina woman. I guess I'm still pleased by the diversity, but it would have been pretty monumental if every one of the rangers was a person of color. Maybe they'll give him the role of StarNinja as compensation. That'd rock because I want him to still be a Ranger. |

B): If they did see it, why did the casting and Saban allow this when they knew that backlash was possible because of the issue with Trini and Zack, to say nothing of Overdrive doing something similar? C): Have they even started filming yet? All that said, hope the original finds peace in another endeavor and the new guy works well with the remaining cast. |

Or maybe that has nothing to do with it. There's always the chance he had to go back to the US for some reason. Like a family emergency.

"Unforseen circumstances" = He wanted more money than we wanted to pay him.

If it was greed, they wouldn't have gotten that far with him. Same thing for the issue of casting an asian actor/actress as the Yellow Ranger.
I'm guessing he left due to either a family emergency or an illness.

If he was greedy, then why not Greedham...I mean Greetham? Come on, they're taking a Chantz on him.
Man, they love hiring the kids with the two part names. Louder Milk. Greet Ham.
