    His name was Art Lean. Why is this bit of trivia engraved in my brain? Who knows?! He wasn't a central character. He wasn't a PoV character. And the rest of that movie has gone enough casting and pacing, and ultimately in retrospect is kind of perfect for what it is. It wins on embracing it's campiness. Will this take a similar approach.

    Yea, Art wasn't a main character like this dude Cole is going to be. Hey, at least the actor is part Asian and we aren't get a Streets of Rage character instead.

    Since James Wan is involved, maybe it’s a big twist and it ends up being another character well-known from MK lore coming into the fold from a different angle?

    Imagine if it was a Goro origin story. Like, one day he wakes up and he has two extra arms.

    I was reading up about the film again and I thought the same thing. My initial reaction was like "Really... Cole." So I'm hoping the branding he has on his bod is an indication of him being important instead of just some dude.
