Austin St. John Is Bringing Something New to Power Morphicon
Austin will be in Pasadena as Jason, the original Red Ranger fans know and love. This year, he is also opening the door to a new world and giving fans an early look at Calder Coldwater before the saga reaches the screen.
Hey there!
You’re reading Fanward, where fandom gets personal. We bring you stories, memories, and behind-the-scenes updates directly from the people who helped create the worlds you love.
This time, Austin is inviting you to experience the beginning of something new.
A MESSAGE FROM AUSTIN
Hey there,
Austin here.
We are still probably six months or more away from filming Calder’s first conversations and seeing the full shape of this character begin to emerge.
But there is something special about this stage of the process.
The world is still being built. The character is still revealing himself. The story is still gathering momentum.
And I do not want you to miss that.
I was talking with Olivia Blair, Fanward co-founder and partner in Mighty Morning Coffee, about what it means to let fans experience a story this early.
She described it as watching something at that level begin to build.
That is exactly what this is.
You are not arriving after everything has already been decided. You are being invited in while Calder is still becoming Calder.
I want you there from the beginning.
I will be at Power Morphicon as Jason, exactly like always.
I am still showing up as your OG Red Ranger, ready to meet you, hear your stories, answer your questions, and spend the weekend with the fans who have supported me all these years.
But this time, I am bringing another story with me.
I will also be introducing you to Calder Coldwater and the saga we are building through Mighty Morning Coffee.
This is not simply a name or image placed on a bag of coffee.
Calder has a history, a family, a mission, and a war waiting ahead of him. His story is still taking shape, and Power Morphicon is your chance to see where it begins.
We will have stickers, giveaways, free Fanward memberships, and a new experience built around Jason and Calder.
No purchase is necessary.
Just come find us, spend some time with the Fanward team, and be part of the beginning.
I cannot wait to bring this story to you.
This is more than coffee.
It is a saga.
I will be around with the Fanward team all three days, so come say hello.
Bring your questions.
Bring your theories about Calder’s runes.
I actually want to hear them.
And if you cannot make it to Pasadena, you are still part of the family. Fanward members will receive stickers in the mail, so nobody gets left out.
More details about exactly where and when to find us are coming next.
Much love,
Austin
