The Community and It's a Wonderful Knife star says Urban is 'one of the best actors around.'
When Warner Bros. Animation first announced that Joel McHale would be playing Johnny Cage in a series of animated Mortal Kombat movies, plenty of fans thought it was the perfect fit. Now McHale, who has played the part in three movies since 2020, says that's how he feels about Karl Urban, the Dredd and The Boys star who was recently tapped to play the role in live action.
"He's one of the better actors around," McHale told ComicBook.com's Chris Killian."My sons and I watch The Boys religiously, so yeah, he's perfect. I think he was nominated for an Emmy for The Boys, pretty sure. It's perfect casting."Here's the official synopsis for Mortal Kombat Legends: Cage Match:
The film stars Joel McHale as Johnny Cage and Jennifer Grey as Herself. Also starring in the movie is Gilbert Gottfried as David Doubldy, Dusan Brown as Chuck Golden, Grey DeLisle as Kia, Robin Atkin Downes as Shinnok, Zehra Fazal as Jataaka, Gilbert Gottfried as David Doubldy, Kelly Hu as Ashrah, Matt Yang King as Concierge, Phil LaMarr as Brian Van Jones, Matthew Mercer as Director/Bully, Dave B.
