Johnny Cage does the show in Mortal Kombat 2: trailer
The continuation of the adaptation of the famous video game promises to be bloody, but also funny and meta.
Absent from the first film, Johnny Cage will be the great attraction of Mortal Kombat 2. And it is Karl Urbanthe Star of The Boyswhich embodies this actor on the decline which finds itself propelled into the fatal tournament, with the heavy load of saving our world.
This quirky and human character, not with exceptional attributes like other protagonists (“I am super nice kid“, He retorts in the trailer), is the perfect gateway to accompany novice spectators in the very nag and referenced universe of Mortal Kombat, with what is necessary of second degree and Meta humor.
“We did not want a purely comical and caricatural character, who would change too easily in the parody“, however warned the director Simon Mcquad. And the lovers of Finish Him very bloody will therefore be served, as we can see in these first images.
The first Mortal Kombat was released in 2021, in the middle of the pandemic, and had been offered simultaneously indoors and streaming. In this context, he still brought in $ 85 million (for 55 million budgets), while becoming the most seen film on HBO Max.
Warner Bros. And New Line Cinema therefore bet on this Mortal Kombat 2. He will be available exclusively in the cinema, October 22, 2025 in France. Trailer:
