Ahead of the release ofMortal Kombat 2, more details can be learned about Johnny Cage’s career on his very own IMDb page. Since Johnny Cage is one of the most popularMortal Kombatcharacters, fans were disappointed that he wasn’t in the first movie. However, thankfully, the ending of the first film teased his inclusion in the sequel.
There will be a lot ofnew characters inMortal Kombat 2, such as Shao Kahn, Quan Chi, Baraka, and Kitana, but Johnny Cage is definitely the most exciting inclusion in the upcoming movie. In the sequel, Johnny Cage will be played by beloved actor Karl Urban, who seems to be a perfect choice to portray the Hollywood superstar turned Earthrealm champion.
The officialMortal Kombat MovieX account has posteda screenshot of Johnny Cage’s IMDb profile, building more anticipation for his role in the film. The page includes a very humorous biography of the action star and lists many of his most popular movies. However, it’s worth noting that this page is just a screenshot and can’t actually be accessed on IMDb. Check out the post below:
What Johnny Cage’s IMDb Page Means For Mortal Kombat 2
Johnny Cage Will Be A Standout In Mortal Kombat 2
This IMDb screenshot continues the trend ofMortal Kombat 2’smarketing focusing primarily on Johnny Cage. Before anyofficial images forMortal Kombat 2were released,a fake movie poster for Johnny Cage’s action film titledUncaged Furywas posted by the marketing team, giving us our first look at Urban in the role.
It seems like Johnny Cage will be the main character ofMortal Kombat 2, potentially replacing the controversial Cole Young.
Uncaged Furyis included on the actor’s list of movies on the IMDb page along with many others, such asHard to Cage,The Gist of My Fist, andRebel Without a Cage. In addition to including some notable movies from his filmography,it’s also amusing that the screenshot features a proper biography for Johnny Cage, which of course highlights how handsome he is.
Even though he wasn’t in the first movie, it seems like Johnny Cage will be themain character ofMortal Kombat 2, potentially replacing the controversial Cole Young. Since Urban is the most well-known member of the cast, this would make sense. This has not been confirmed yet, butthis IMDb page once again proves that the creative team behind the movie loves the character.
Johnny Cage Should Be Hilarious In The Sequel
After 1997’sMortal Kombat: Annihilationcompletelywasted Johnny Cageand the 2021 movie didn’t even include him, it’s exciting that he will have such a prominent role in the upcoming sequel. The previously released movie poster and this IMDb page prove thatMortal Kombat 2can have a lot of fun with the character by highlighting his Hollywood background.
Even thoughJohnny Cage becomes an important Earthrealm champion in the franchise, he is also often treated as a joke because of his silly movie performances. More than likely, Johnny Cage will be introduced inMortal Kombat 2as a super cocky, sometimes completely oblivious, Hollywood star before he undergoes some character development. Therefore, I can’t wait to see Urban’s version of Johnny Cage inMortal Kombat 2.
