Damned If You Do
According to Deadline, Harvey Guillén, Ginger Gonzaga, Paulo Costanzo, Beth Dover, Ed Weeks, Molly Bernard, Jillian Gottlieb, Matthew Stephen Smith, Liza Treyger and Ashley Austin Morris have joined the cast of Damned If You Do, a dark comedy starring Kate Siegel. The story is said to follow, “a group of teenage friends who have sold their souls to the devil. Subsequently, life takes them down different paths, as a rock star, a tech mogul, and a high-profile activist. Years later, they must rely on an old classmate to try and escape Hell’s grasp before the contract’s deadline of their 25th high school reunion.”
Mortal Kombat 2
In conversation with Screen Rant, Liu Kang actor Ludi Lin hyped Karl Urban’s portrayal of Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat 2.
I hope you guys are ready for the next one. We’ve been shooting this one forever, I’m back in Australia still shooting MK 2. I was here for almost a year last time. Yeah, it’s gonna be pretty immense, everything is going to be bigger. The story’s going to be great. Karl Urban as Johnny Cage, I hope you guys are ready, because he’s going to blow your socks off. Just from the experience that actors like Karl, actors like Nicholas [Hammond, his co-star in Art of Eight Limbs] brings on set… He mentioned that, in The Art of Eight Limbs, they really changed the script – started tweaking it – after they found out that they’d nailed an actor like him to play the role. You can tell, as soon as he comes on it really fills out the entire movie, he fills out the role, just like Karl does with Johnny Cage. There’s just a level of expertise, there’s some toolbox, the essence that they bring to the role just adds another dimension to it. In both cases I really look up to actors like this that can really bring a movie to the next level.
