Summary
Get over here friends because the trio of stars we have on Popcorn Podcast for Mortal Kombat II is a flawless victory. Karl Urban (Johnny Cage), Jessica McNamee (Sonya Blade) & Josh Lawson (Kano) are here as the fan favourite champions pitted against one another in the ultimate battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders. In our chat, the gang share how much improvisation came into play with the “battle of the one liners”, how important the strong female voice was for the film, why Karl Urban was happy to hand over the “dangerous stuff” to the stunt team, and what sits at the heart of each of their characters.
