Mortal Kombat 1 is gearing up to be a bit of a celebrity fest - what with the likes of JK Simmons, John Cena, and Megan…
all putting in an appearance - but perhaps its most perfect addition is 80s action star Jean-Claude Van Damme, cameoing as Johnny Cage, whose in-game likeness has now debuted online courtesy of series co-creator Ed Boon and a bunch of chicken wings.
Boon's 14-minute appearance includes some breezy chatter about Mortal Kombat 1 and the history of the series, interspersed with bits of gameplay footage. Some of that takes the form of a brief - and by brief I mean barely five-seconds-long - in-game look at Van Damme, who "So we called his people...and I don't know if he declined or it just never got to him or something like that," Boon told host Sean Evans."But this is a couple of 20-something-year-old kids who wanted make a video game – I could see how Van Damme would go, 'No, no, we're not doing this'."
