Johnny Cage

Like many stars before him, Johnny became addicted to his fame. He came to measure his self-worth by his fans' adoration and their praise of him on social media. But with his star now fading, Johnny is fighting an uphill battle to remain relevant. His personality in the new timeline is toned down, in regards to his arrogance, cockiness, and competitiveness but he's still protective and cares for his friends. One of the expensive purchases he made was the Takahashi clan's sacred sword, Sento, which was since lost from their hands since ancient times. After he and Kenshi fight for possession of the sword, Fire God Liu Kang recruits them alongside Kung Lao and Raiden to serve as Earthrealm's defenders in the Mortal Kombat tournament. This also develops a friendship between him and Kenshi after he saves him during their fight with Mileena in Shang Tsung's Lab. Cage undergoes another bout of maturation, wherein he steps down from acting and switches over to film directing to give new faces in the acting industry room to grow & shine. While also carrying out Liu Kang's plan to share the realms' existence, by easing the public into the revelation of there being more worlds beyond than the one they know through his scripted cinemas.
