Pua Magasiva, star of “Shortland Street” and “Power Rangers: Ninja Storm,” was found dead in Wellington, New Zealand on Saturday at the age of 38.
Magasiva got his start in acting through “Power Rangers,” playing Red Ranger Shane Clarke in the kids series’ eleventh season in 2003. Magasiva joined the show after Disney, which acquired “Power Rangers” from Saban, moved production of the series to New Zealand to keep costs down.
That same year, Magasiva became known in New Zealand on the soap opera “Shortland Street,” playing comic-relief nurse Vinnie Kruse. Magasiva played the role from 2003-06, later returning to the show in 2011. Magasiva also had a career in radio, co-hosting the morning show on Kiwi station Flava. He left the show in 2018.
Wellington Police told the New Zealand Herald that they received reports of Magasiva’s death at an address in the city’s central business district. No suspicious circumstances were found at the scene,...

It’s been quite some time since team Nerdly attended McM Comic Con Birmingham, in fact its been 4 years – thanks to the terrible winter weather which put the kibosh on attending the Birmingham event back in March – since we were a part of the last NEC event. And in the intervening years a Lot has changed… For the better. The biggest change is the fact this event was back to being family-friendly again – with organisers ReedPOP putting a stop to “glamour area” which had become something of both a joke and an unwanted aspect, of McM Birmingham in the early 2010′s.
The other big change, for us, was the layout. McM Birmingham was, back in the day, split into two distinct areas, McM and Memorabilia – which meant that guests and attendees were often divided across two halls of the NEC. Which was fine in terms of foot traffic (more floorspace...
