Jorgito Vargas has had the acting bug since childhood. Relentless with his career, Jorgito got roles in several 1980's shows like "MacGyver," "21 Jump Street," and "Booker."
In the 1990's, he appeared in movies and specials such as the movie "Deceived by Trust: A Moment of Truth Movie" in 1995 as "David," a skateboard boy in "Color Me Perfect" in 1996, and even made it in a movie with Alicia Silverstone in 1997's "Excess Baggage." in 1998, he was in "One of our Own" as "Duncan."
In 1992, he appeared in "Kidszone" as himself.
Also in the 90's, our future Thunder Ranger's television career consisted of "Dark Angel (as "Bug" in the "Dawgday Afternoon" episode)," "The Odyssey (as "Savage" in the "The Plague," "No Holds Barred," "Tug Of War," "Styx and Stones," and "Cry Justice," episodes)," "Millennium (as a young dealer in the "Human Essence" ep)," "Viper (as "Victor" in "Holy Terror")," "Poltergeist: The Legacy (as "Arthur" in the "Substitute" ep)" and even "Stargate SG-1" as "Abu" in "Emancipation."
Throughout the years, Jorgito's gone by several names such as Daniel Jorge Vargas and Jorge Vargas.
Guest starring roles in recent years have been shows like "Neon Rider (several roles), "Northwood" as "Lunker, "The Commish" as "Mark (eps "Born in the USA" and "Keeping Secrets"), "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" as "Felix" in the "The Tale of the Night Shift" episode.
Jorgito was in "Bang, Bang, You're Dead" in 2002 as a stage actor.
Even more TV credits include "Cold Squad" as "Willy Santayana" in the episode named after this character. In "The Sentinel" he played "Serge" in "Pennies from Heaven." Then we get to "UC: Undercover" where Jorgito plays "Miguel" in "Hunting Armando" and the show "First Wave" playing "Stephen Kim" in "The Aftertime."
But his biggest role pre-Power Rangers had to be as the character "Dim" on NBC's "Sk8" and as "Auggie" in the popular series "On Higher Ground.
Finally, our hero lands the role of Blake Trejo (later changed to Blake Bradley) as the Navy Thunder Power Ranger in the 11th incarnation of the show, Ninja Storm. Jorgito shot Power Rangers from October 2002 through about June of 2003. Jorgito's love for the martial arts really came in handy.
In the "Samurai's Journey part 3" episode, he voiced the space ninja "Starvark." After Ninja Storm wrapped up, Jorgito returned to the Rangers' set in 2004's DinoThunder by voicing Kenny Yukito, the Blue Abaranger in the episode "Lost and Found in Translation." Later in 2004, he revived his role as Blake in the Ninja Storm/ DinoThunder crossover "Thunder Storm part 1 & 2."
Lately Jorgito appeared on "Smallville" as a thug who shot Lex Luthor. Brandon Jay McLaren (Jack Landors) also appeared on "Smallville" in a previous season.
