Karl Urban is a wise-cracking Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat II

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-03 23:06:01

Karl Urban takes a break from The Boys to play a washed-up Johnny Cage in the trailer for Mortal Kombat II, a sequel to 2021's Mortal Kombat reboot and the fourth live-action film in the franchise based on the 1990s video game series. It comes one day after Warner Bros. released a (very entertaining) fake trailer for a new in-universe, faux 1990s Johnny Cage movie, Uncaged Fury. (Cage's prior fake film credits apparently include Cool Hand Cage, Hard to Cage, and Rebel Without a Cage.) The first

Ahead of the release of the official trailer for Mortal Kombat II, Warner Bros. sneakily released a spoof movie trailer to go along with its meta marketing for its leading man, Johnny Cage, played by The Boys star Karl Urban. When Mortal Kombat first released back in 2021, fans of NetherRealm’s long-running fighting game series collectively scratched their heads in confusion over one of its original characters, Johnny Cage, being absent from the film.

Medieval preacher invoked chivalric hero as a meme in sermon

Medieval poet Geoffrey Chaucer twice made references to an early work featuring a Germanic mythological character named Wade. Only three lines survive, discovered buried in a sermon by a late 19th century scholar. There has been much debate over how to translate those fragments ever since, and whether the long-lost work was a monster-filled epic or a chivalric romance. Two Cambridge University scholars now say those lines have been "radically misunderstood" for 130 years, supplying their own tra

For better or worse, M3GAN’s sophomore outing in M3GAN 2.0 brought with it much more action-packed mania than the killer-doll horrors of the original. That, and of course the awkward inconvenience of M3GAN’s body being destroyed in the climax of the first film, meant her return for round two needed a mechanical do-over… including a few upgrades for good measure.
