Mortal Kombat Johnny Cage actor casted....

[MKF30]

So it's this dude. Thoughts? Not sure how I feel, I know a few Cage fans personally who wont be thrilled lol.

Odd choice to pick an Asian dude. I think it just seems weird because everybody else was on the money. It could be alright but it’s out of place with the rest of the cast so far.

lewis tan will be playing the original character cole turner/marino. guess a standin for jonny.

i can understand that as johny could be a target for pc culture.

double post pls delete

Interesting choice, don't really know anything about the guy.

One thing I do know is that girls voice is the worst thing I've heard all day possibly ever.

 

[Blade4693]

He looks Asian...which is fine since MK has a ton of Asian characters or characters intended do have Asian features but I don't think Johnny Cage is one of them lol

 

[DrFolmer]

Wait, so Liu Kang is Johnny Cage

 

[ItsYaBoi]

Seems like a good casting.

He certainly has the charisma and cockiness of Johnny Cage. Think he could pull it off.

 

[Owerbart]

I don't want to sound racist but making Johnny an asian? really? who made the casting? Stevie Wonder?

 

[nathancorsini]

Kitana was never asian-esque and now she is. I know she was pretended to be asian in the past, but she never was. There is no reason for JC fans hate on it.

Didn't really watch the video but that smells like major clickbait to me. Is there any concrete evidence presented?
To be really honest I think it would be a pretty big mistake to cast an asian JC. Especially since like 99% of the rest of the roster has been cast pretty damn well so far.

 

[Tigerbang]

So rumor has it that Sonya is going to be cast by an Indian male. For real tho this seems more like an Ed Boon Troll than anything.

 

[deathstroke187]

wtf ?

 

[Error404]

Wow. Just wow.

Shes been right so far, I dont think its click bait. But i do agree with most, I dont get the choice but then every movie franchise now has to have those one or two PC castings. Its dumb, but true.

 

[NothingPersonal]

Shouldn't they cast Van Damme for this role? Or they're keeping him to play an asian emperor?

 

[exflyingbooty]

he's not playing johnny cage, he's play shujinko

 

[GLoRToR]

It's a movie, guys. It will probably have very little to do with the game.

Since he no longer has white male privilege maybe NRS will finally fix his forceballs.

 

[Metin]

I feel no simple fucking hype for this movie.

LOL He'll be S tier.

Let me get this straight guys. Someone writes a shitty 500 word article with the only source for "Lewis Tan Confirms he's playing Johnny Cage" being Lewis Tan's tweet where he said "heads will roll" because that's "obviously" a reference to a Johnny Fatality. #Journalism

After that, some shitty youtuber who turns off their comment section makes a ten minutes video(just long enough!) about said article. Then this video got posted here and now you guys are actually getting all mad about it? Really?

 

[Owerbart]

asian JC means he's dying in the first 10 mins of the movie so they didn't care a lot lmao

 

[Kanalratte]

solid choice. he's also in "wu assassins" and "into the badlands"
