You're building practical sets.

It'll start to rack up money and also all the visual effects.

So I'm assuming Carl Urban was a little bit, but not as much as like, let's say, Glenn Powell.

Yeah.

Because I do think there is sometimes.

Yeah.

I think there is an actor that could give an older Johnny Cage.

That is kind of like, this is just because I'm thinking off the top of my head.

That's like a Matthew McConaughey, but a little bit younger.

Like it's still like a Brad Pitt, but younger.

Like it's like someone that clearly is like mid 40s, drinks a lot, but still has that attitude that's like, I used to be something.

And be more energetic.

But I think the direction they gave Carl Urban was like the best they could do.

Which is not what you want to say.

Which is not what you want to say in a movie reviewing it.

But like, that's where I sat with.

watching this it's just it's tough to go from Billy Butcher to Johnny Cage like literally I got home from the theater and tuned into the latest episode of The Voice and it's quite a jarring contrast in characters and accents so yeah to be fair I think he's becoming Billy Butcher yes in his real life yes he's like how Austin Butler became Elvis right I think he's becoming Billy Butcher but also when I look back at all his roles I'm like yeah your accent's always there I haven't really got to see a lot of movies where you don't have the accent

But yeah, I still agree with the sentiment.

But I will say I was less hating on it now when I realized, oh, he's supposed to be kind of old and washed up.

Yeah, yeah, definitely.
