There are more and more Hollywood stars in Mortal Kombat 1.

Yesterday we told you about Megan Fox, who will lend her looks and voice to the vampire Nitara. Now it's time to look at another famous actor who will appear in the fighting game.

Here's What We Know

In the new edition of YouTube-show First We Feast's Hot Ones took part the creator of Mortal Kombat franchise and head of NetherRealm studio Ed Boon.

He told a lot of interesting things about the new part of the game, but we'll pay attention to another one: the game designer showed how Johnny Cage's alternative look will look like, in which the hero will get the appearance of young Jean-Claude Van Damme from the film Bloodsport.

Ed Boon revealed that he has been trying to attract Van Damme since the first Mortal Kombat instalments, but the actor has only agreed to the offer now. It is noteworthy that the exclusive skin changes not only the appearance of Johnny Cage, but also gives him the voice of Jean-Claude van Damme.

Everyone will be able to buy such a skin in the DLC format.

Twitter user David cut the Johnny Cage/Jean-Claude van Damme segment from the show, and we have the full show below.

When We Can Expect It

Mortal Kombat 1 will release on September 19 on PC (Steam, EGS), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch.
