MORTAL KOMBAT II: Karl Urban Unleashes "UnCaged Fury" In First Teaser; Full Trailer Tomorrow

The first full trailer for Mortal Kombat II is set to release online tomorrow, but for now, we have a truly awesome faux teaser for Johnny Cage's (Karl Urban) latest action movie, "Uncaged Fury."

"They pissed him off. They f*cked with his shades. They should have brought more guys..."

The first official poster and teaser for Mortal Kombat II are now online, with the full trailer set to arrive tomorrow.

The poster is just a redesigned take on the classic MK dragon logo, but the teaser takes the form of a brilliantly cheesy and OTT faux trailer for Johnny Cage's (The Boys and Star Trek alum Karl Urban) latest movie, "Uncaged Fury."

The cocky Hollywood B-movie star turned heroic freedom fighter's debut was set up at the end of the first movie when Cole Young (Lewis Tan) told his fellow kombatants that he knew someone "out in LA" that could aid them in the impending rematch against the forces of Outworld.

"You finally get to see Johnny Cage," Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon previously teased in a recent interview with EW. "His integration into the Mortal Kombat story and universe is a big part of what this movie explores. He's a washed-up Hollywood guy thrown into this magical, ultra-violent thing."

The first movie didn't exactly achieve a flawless victory at the box office, but it performed well enough - especially as one of the first major Covid-era releases with a day-and-date streaming debut - to warrant a sequel.

The follow-up will also see the debut of some other new heroes and villains from the long-running video game series. Martyn Ford (Red Sonja) will play villainous Outworld emperor Shao Kahn, Desmond Chiam (Joy Ride) will take on the role of Edenian King Jerrod, Ana Thu Nguyen (Suka) is on board as Queen Sindel, and Damon Herriman (Once Upon a Time In Hollywood) will portray Netherrealm demon Quan Chi.

Pretty much all of the main characters - even the ones that were (seemingly) killed off - from the first movie will return, with Lewis Tan back as Cole Young, Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade, Josh Lawson as Kano, Tadanobu Asano as Lord Raiden, Mehcad Brooks as Jax, Ludi Lin as Liu Kang, Chin Han as Shang Tsung, Joe Taslim as Bi-Han and Sub-Zero, and Max Huang as Kung Lao.

"Hunted by the fearsome warrior Sub-Zero, MMA fighter Cole Young finds sanctuary at the temple of Lord Raiden. Training with experienced fighters Liu Kang, Kung Lao and the rogue mercenary Kano, Cole prepares to stand with Earth's greatest champions to take on the enemies from Outworld in a high-stakes battle for the universe."

Simon McQuoid is back in the director's chair, this time working from a from Jeremy Slater. James Wan is producing alongside McQuoid, Todd Garner, Michael Clear, and E. Bennett Walsh.

Love KU... But if I'm being honest. I would have liked to see someone else play Cage. Probably someone slightly younger...
Decent enough teaser though..

I appreciate that they gave this a cheesy 80’s martial arts movie vibe. Perfect for Cage. Hoping this is better than the first one.

I have no interest whatsoever in this movie, but that promo was pretty fun.

Can we get that movie instead of Lewis Tan and his literal Plot Armor?
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 7/16/2025, 10:10 PM
@Reeds2Much - I’m no fan of Lewis Tan but I will say I didn’t mind the literal “plot armor” since it played into the character of him having a very aggressive fighting style that was lacking in certain areas like in defense so it made up for that weakness but I get yah.

The character as it was was fine but I do hope he has a secondary or even minor role in this.

@Reeds2Much - If it helps any...Johnny Cage is the new lead of this film.

@BlackStar25 - Unless the are pulling a fast one and they kill him off in the opening of the movie only to reveal the real antagonist, but if they do that they will piss off all the fans so I highly doubt it but you never know these days.

That was a pretty great fake teaser imo lol…

Urban seems to capture the screen persona of Johnny Cage well there imo and the cheesy b movie action vibe felt fitting for the character , especially this version who is apparently an aging washed up star.

Also going by Ed Boon’s comments , if Johnny’s the main character or audience POV in this then it already sounds like an improvement over the first one (which was mildly enjoyable at best) since Lewis Tan’s Cole wouldn’t be the lead anymore.

This is great; I like how they're leaning into humor with the sequel.

The spot was clever although I don't think it is as good as the Johnny Cage intro in the 1995 film.
