Karl Urban’s Johnny Cage: First Look in ‘Mortal Kombat 2’

Fans have been treated to their first glimpse of “The Boys” actor Josh Brener as Johnny Cage in a recently shared image on the official Mortal Kombat X/Twitter account. With many eagerly awaiting his arrival in the upcoming sequel, fans are undoubtedly excited about how Brener will portray this iconic video game character. While it’s just a movie poster for one of the characters’ fictional films, there’s no doubt that fans are looking forward to seeing Brener’s take on the role.

After the initial movie’s release in 2021, there was much discussion about the conspicuous absence of Cage, and with a sequel being uncertain at that point, leaving out a major character from the original video games seemed daring. However, the film’s ending hinted at his future appearance by depicting protagonist Cole Young (Lewis Tan) on a quest to find Cage in Hollywood.
