Yeah, you heard us. Bryan Cranston aka Walter White aka Heisenberg is going to be in the upcoming Power Rangers film.
Cranston, the star of Breaking Bad, Malcolm in the Middle and so much more, has signed up to play Zordon – the disembodied head that creates and mentors the Power Rangers.
In case you aren’t much of a nostalgia junkie and you’ve forgotten all about Zordon, he looks like this:
