Wait wait. Jean Claude Van Dam, the guy who was the inspiration behind Johnny Cage, is going to be a skin for the character in the game.

Lets hope Nyl doesn't rip that for his memes.

As I understand it, they were planning on making a game based on Bloodsport the movie. For whatever reason, they (then Midway) lost the rights to it and ended up making Mortal Kombat instead. The JCVD Johnny Cage skin is an homage to Bloodsport and the upcoming 35th anniversary.

While this is happening, Karl Urban is in talks to play Johnny Cage in the upcoming MK2 film.

What a time to be alive.

Although I like Karl Urban if they can't get van Damme I would rather see Scott Adkins or Bren Foster as Johnny Cage. Does Urban even have a background in martial arts?
