Dang, Doctor Tracksuit really looking svelte.

gamerlance.bsky.social•56 days ago

Looks more like Johnny Wesker.

kingedawg.bsky.social•56 days ago

Get ready for a movie that spent most of the budget on hiring Karl Urban and Hiroyuki Sanada

Why does shao kahn look like yoshimitsu with that mask

paladin356.bsky.social•56 days ago

Probably the eyes

bensanfg.bsky.social•56 days ago

I am mostly talking about the tekken 3 design for yoshi

paladin356.bsky.social•56 days ago

Definitely can see the resemblance. Ironically this has always been one of my favorite designs. Its super unique without getting too odd like say Tekken 7's design

bensanfg.bsky.social•56 days ago

I think everyone likes tekken 3 yoshi more than the more weirder designs, so much to the point where sfxt used that design and tekken 8 yoshi took heavy inspiration from this look

Be interesting to see Karl Urban as Cage in this. Always give MK movies a chance, good or bad.

markshatraw.bsky.social•56 days ago

Scott Adkins would've been a killer Johnny Cage but Karl Urban looks more the part than I expected

salamatpoo.bsky.social•56 days ago

I love Karl Urba, but Scott Adkins would be peak. Imagine Johnny Cage doing the moves of Accident Man.

markshatraw.bsky.social•56 days ago

Exactly. Love Karl Urban, but I don't need Johnny Cage to be able to act lol. He needs to be able to throw a roundhouse kick over his head without hurting himself.

gamedadvii.bsky.social•56 days ago

I think they were like "hey we like Butcher on the boys can we have Johnny act like him?" And then someone just said can we hire Karl??

howtheforceworks.bsky.social•56 days ago

I really disliked the first one, but in my head I can imagine this being what Annihilation couldnt be.

domrocco.bsky.social•56 days ago

Kahn mask goes hard. First one stunk but I'm hoping they learned from it. I just want a tournament with gore and fatalities.

ben.pours.wine•56 days ago

I like Karl Urban, but that's a weird cast for me

scholarlycowboy.bsky.social•56 days ago

Right?!

concandycorn.bsky.social•56 days ago

Never even seen the man smile. Weird casting.
So many vain actors to cast for the role too. Confusing

concandycorn.bsky.social•56 days ago

If it were Tom Cruise i could see it. Older actor, in good shape, fighter, white, vain. Meets all the marks.

Chris Evans would make more sense given Johnny Cage is also supposed to be handsome tho.

fluffynuts.bsky.social•56 days ago

Except Tom Cruise is like 5 foot nothing and Johnny Cage would NEVER be seen in public with a formerly broken nose…

My picks would have been either Rob McElhenney or the wrestler known as The Miz (he’s basically Johnny Cage of the WWE).

concandycorn.bsky.social•56 days ago

I could see Cody Rhodes as Johnny Cage

jettiandretti.bsky.social•56 days ago

He actually smiles a lot in The Boys, just not in the way you're thinking lol

scholarlycowboy.bsky.social•56 days ago

I think of the wry grins of Billy the Butcher. But I still don’t see it.

falconpunch777.bsky.social•56 days ago

I think the reason they went with Karl is they want to have an "Old washed out actor" for this version.

howtheforceworks.bsky.social•56 days ago

They went with Karl because they liked his audition. That's how actors get cast.

falconpunch777.bsky.social•56 days ago

You can still search for people with a preference. "Looking for actor who's....etc"

howtheforceworks.bsky.social•55 days ago

Thats a starting point, not the deciding factor. If in the end the director wasnt convinced he wouldnt have hired him.

falconpunch777.bsky.social•53 days ago

Just so there's no confusion. The character of Johnny Cage is probably going to be A washed out actor is what I mean.
