Stephen Antonio Cardenas (born May 29, 1974) is a former Mexican-American actor and martial artist, perhaps most noted for playing Rocky DeSantos in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers TV series. Cardenas was born at Langley Air Force Base, in Hampton, Virginia, U.S. and is of half Mexican descent.[1] His character, Rocky, replaced Jason Lee Scott (played by Austin St. John) as the Red Ranger in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers TV series, and he later became the Blue Ranger for Power Rangers Zeo. Cardenas left the Power Rangers series at the beginning of the Turbo season, after he was really injured while filming the last episode of Power Rangers Zeo. Cardenas started training in martial arts when he was about 12 years old. He appeared at the 2007 Power Morphicon convention along with other veteran cast members, including Austin St. John, Walter Jones, Johnny Yong Bosch, and Daniel Southworth.[2] He also appeared at Anime Expo 2009 along with fellow veteran Power Rangers actors, Walter Emanuel Jones, Karan Ashley, Blake Foster, Barbara Goodson, and Robert Axelrod, who are best known for their voice actor roles as Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd, Catherine Sutherland, Selwyn Ward, Patricia Ja Lee, Nakia Burrise, and Daniel Southworth.

After a devastating defeat at the hands of Divatox’s forces, Angel Grove falls into chaos. The Power Chamber lies in ruins, Zordon is unreachable, and the Turbo Rangers are presumed defeated. Stripped of their powers, they struggle with failure as Divatox tightens her grip on Earth.But hope is not gone. A mysterious signal hidden within the remnants of Turbo technology is uncovered by Alpha. It activates a secret protocol left behind by Zordon: Project Turbo Reignite, a system designed to restore and evolve the Rangers’ powers. As the team fights to recover, a new ally emerges — the Turbo Black Ranger, a lone warrior with a mysterious connection to the origin of the Turbo powers. Stronger, more experienced, and carrying secrets tied to Zordon’s earliest experiments on Earth, he becomes both a mentor and a wildcard. With upgraded vehicles, rebuilt Zords, and a more battle-hardened team, the Rangers rise again. However, Divatox is no longer acting alone — a darker force is manipulating events behind the scenes, hinting at a much greater threat looming over Earth. Now, the Rangers must prove that they are not defined by their defeat, but by their ability to rise again. Core theme: redemption, rebuilding, and evolution.
