Dredd and The Boys star Karl Urban is reportedly in-line to play Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat 2.
According to IGN, the Hollywood movie star is in final negotiations to play the video game movie star in the sequel to 2021’s popular Mortal Kombat film.
For me, Urban is an odd pick for Johnny Cage. In the Mortal Kombat games Cage is a clean cut, quick-witted action movie star whose vanity is matched only by his star-studded smile. When I think of Karl Urban, I think of all his gruff, beardy roles, such as Judge Dredd in the wonderful Dredd movie, the superhero hating Billy Butcher, and the hairy rider of Rohan, Éomer in The Lord of the Rings. For Cage, I’m thinking Ryan Gosling’s Ken or Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool, without the suit.
