The ‘Mortal Kombat’ reboot trailer seems to have appealed to a lot of fans due to the loyalty to the original material and the characterization of the characters.

However, some netizens are complaining about the absence of Johnny Cage, one of the franchise’s most charismatic heroes.

Known for his great humor, Cage is a Hollywood star and talented martial artist who was branded as Goro’s nemesis due to the iconic fight between them in the 1995 film.

Check out the reactions:

Just saw the Mortal Kombat movie trailer, my expectations were zero when I saw a madman in Random, apparently the protagonist, and Johnny Cage gone, but it was amazing Scorpion appearing as Hanzo

Remembering that the premiere takes place on April 15 in national cinemas!

Watch the trailer:

Simon McQuoid (“Premonition 5”) is responsible for the staging.

MMA fighter Cole Young, used to fighting for money, is unaware of his legacy – or because Outworld Emperor Shang Tsung sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, a Cryomancer to ‘another world, to hunt Cole. Fearing for the safety of his family, Cole sets out to find Sonya Blade and Jax, a special forces major who carries the same strange dragon that Cole was born with. Soon he finds himself in the temple of Lord Raiden, an Elder God and Protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Here, Cole trains with seasoned warriors Liu Kang, Kung Lao, and devious mercenary Kano, as he prepares to take on Earth’s greatest champions against enemies of Outworld in a high-risk battle across the universe. But will Cole be under enough pressure to unlock his arcane – the immense power in his soul – in time to not only save his family, but also stop Outworld once and for all?

The cast includes Joe Taslim (Sub Zero), Ludi Lin (Liu Kang), Jessica McNamee (Sonya Blade), Mehcad Brroks (Jax) Josh Lawson (Kano), Chin Han (Shang Tsung), Hiroyuki Sanada (Scorpion), Tadanobu Asano (Raiden), Sisi Stringer (Mileena).

The new feature will be for over 18 years, with the promise of a lot of violence and death.

Released in 1995, the first adaptation of “Mortal Kombat” had a budget of $ 18 million and grossed $ 122.1 million at the global box office. The sequel, “Mortal Kombat – Annihilation,” cost $ 30 million, but only raised $ 51.3 million worldwide. Both have been slaughtered by critics.
