ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: MORTAL KOMBAT II Cast Answer Burning Questions

Very rarely does your castmate call you and say, hey, congrats, you got the job.

This is a war for the fate of your world.

HOST: I have some burning questions from the IMDb team, so let's see how many we can get through.

All right, all right, let's go.

HOST: Let's talk a little bit about Johnny Cage 'cause he is such a great character.

Come on! What's one aspect of playing this character that you wish you could actually bring into your real life?

When he believes in himself and transforms into Johnny Cage and the level of the skill set that he has, I would love to be able to do that.

Is there anything you admire about Johnny Cage?

Of course. I mean, yeah, his-- his good looks.

Good looks, his taste in style.

HOST: His resilience. - Yeah.

No. Where do we begin?

The bromance is real.

Tell me you're not some crazy fans.

HOST: What type of special preparation did you need to get ready for the famous nut punch?

A lot of stretching.

JOSH LAWSON: Yeah.

KARL URBAN: A lot of-- to be fair, a lot of stretching.

Maybe some injuries did occur.

Maybe they didn't.

Allegedly. Yeah.

Ouch. HOST: Now, this sequel centers on a large-scale battle for Earthrealm.

How does this level of threat raise the stakes for your characters in this sequel?

The stakes for the individual characters are raised in the second sequel.

Everything's higher.

Everything's heightened.

And now I think that the main threat is the big bosses here, Shao Kahn.

And immediately when you see him, you feel the menace.

And it could mean the end of the world for us.

I don't have anything to add to that because that's all true.

That does-- both of those things are true.

And I-- I feel like it's a biography of what's happening in the world today.

So, yeah. HOST: You both worked on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

What was it like to reunite on this project?

- The best thing in the world. - A gift.

- Like, yeah. - Truly a gift.

You could not ask for a better situation, especially in a movie where we had to have such a strong emotional connection.

To enter that project with something so amazing and pre-existing was a dream.

Yeah. HOST: Who texted whom first?

I did. So I-- Yeah.

--found out before she found out.

Like, and I couldn't hold it.

Like, I was texting.

I was like, congratulations on Mortal Kombat.

Oh my god! And-- For reference, usually the way it works is as an actor, your team calls you, and they let you know that you booked it.

Very rarely does your castmate call you and say, hey, congrats, you got the job.

So it was amazing.

It was so-- it was the best way to find out.

HOST: How did you get yourself pumped up for the action sequences of the movie?

Lots of coffee.

Or mine, my day would normally start at midnight.

I'd wake up, go to the gym in the hotel.

And then I'll be in the makeup chair anything from 2:00 AM, 3:00 AM start.

So I'd already kind of done a day before we do a day.

So for me, the-- the actual getting ready for the fight scene was important.

And music, visualization, nutrition, hydration, and then just being around the energy of the film was-- was enough.

Music, visualization.

You visualize the fight day before at least-- you sleep on it, right?

And then on the day, good stretching and then get into their character.

It was also an added pressure of just how many people are going to judge this. - That's a good point.

Yeah. And-- and not just normal fans.

Like, absolutely-- Yeah.

Life dedicated to the franchise, and they-- they know more than we do.

That's a good pressure.

The pressure of that on your shoulders-- It gives you that .

It's a make or break.

HOST: Yeah.

Face him! OK, I in some-- not always.

Not-- not-- I'm not like a lunatic.

But, like, sometimes, like especially in the last fight with Shao Kahn, I would just really rile myself up, room full of, like, however many people, and just scream before action.

You know, just, like, really get into it and just, like, shout at him from my gut.

Yeah. And then-- wait and then action.

Yeah. HOST: I love that. That's amazing.

- Yeah. - Was he prepared for that?

It's Martyn.

Martyn's prepared for everything.

Right. Right.

For me, I don't know.

It's music a lot of the time and then just a lot of jumping up and down, just sort of, like, just, like-- like, psyching myself up physically.

- Yeah. - I walk around with weights.

- Yeah, we had a-- - Yeah, she does.

We had a little Mortal Kombat pump truck.

There's a truck full of weights and bands, and there was a sign that said-- - All the BTS-- - Pump truck. - Just me just holding weight-- - Yep. - Doing this.

I bring music sometimes, but, like, it's-- we're interfacing and interacting the whole time. Like, we're making jokes.

HOST: Yeah.

We're just hanging out like a family.

HOST: How do you get yourself pumped up for an action sequence in this movie?

Peptides. I-- no-- Coffee, cigarettes, shot of tequila.

Yeah. Old school.

No, look, I mean, I-- shout out to the stunt performers because they are ridiculously talented.

But having said that, you know, some of the cast, namely Joe Taslim and Ludi and Max and Louis, like, these guys are actual fighters.

Like, they don't have to have stunt guys come in.

And, you know, Karl did a load of his own stuff.

I don't do too much of that in this film, but I do what I can.

I mean, I think what's fun about this job is, like, every time you get a challenge, it's like, I'll try.

I'll do my best.

But then at some point, the director goes, your best sucks, and we're going to get this stunt guy to do it real good.

But you trained months for this.

Like, you trained? KARL URBAN: Months.

100

Yeah, yeah, months and months.

101

And not-- as part of my approach to it, I actually went to martial arts tournaments and just to absorb the culture and just to see families and-- and kids when they would win or lose a tournament and how they interacted as part of, like, imagining, you know, where Johnny, you know, came from.

102

It was hands down the most challenging thing that I've ever done in my career.

103

It was terrifying, but to me, I think that's-- that's where the interesting comes in, you know.

104

I'm an actor.

105

HOST What's a special skill or hobby that fans may be surprised to know that you have in real life?

106

I'm an incredible musician.

107

I produce, I write, I sing, and I have an album coming out this summer with-- with an incredible producer who won a few Grammys.

108

His name is Kizzo, and we're putting out a genre-bending, spoken word hip-hop album.

109

I'm a puzzler.

110

HOST: What type of puzzles?

111

1,000 pieces, baby.

112

People are going to be sending you puzzles now.

113

Like-- That would be my freaking dream.

114

- I'm a pretty good dog trainer. - I was gonna say-- I was gonna say-- I was a pretty good dog trainer.

115

My dog now packs.

116

He's like-- he's five months old, but he's working his way toward a PhD.

117

No, I can attest to that.

118

I'm decent at golf.

119

She's great at golf.

120

I'm not great at golf, but Karl and I would, on the weekends, play golf, almost every weekend.

121

You're great at golf.

122

I-- depends who you ask.

123

I feel like she's being modest.

124

For me, I mean, I used to compete with a bow staff.

125

Like, I have a black belt in karate, but I feel like that's public information already.

126

And she sings.

127

She's an incredible artist.

128

She sings. She draws really well.

129

All at the same time.

130

You should-- we should ask each-- yeah.

131

Right. Special skill or hobby, I'm-- I'm incredible at getting my five-year-old son to sleep now.

132

It's quite a special skill.

133

Well, I think some people probably know that I'm a gamer.

134

My rank in Fortnite is Unreal.

135

And then I DJ as well.

136

Mixing music, it gives me peace.

137

Sometimes my mind is quite chaotic, but every time I mix music, somehow, it just gives me the soothe-- - Relaxation.

138

Yeah. It may surprise you to learn that Kano loves wildlife photography.

139

I do love wildlife photography.

140

That's a hobby of mine.

141

I love going to faraway places and-- and taking photos of animals.

142

HOST: What was your most recent photo trip to?

143

I was in Patagonia.

144

Yeah, so I trekked-- I trekked with the pumas in Patagonia, and that was quite-- that was quite special.

145

I don't know if it's a skill.

146

Maybe it's a condition, but I-- I'm very adept at taking elements of wardrobe from my characters home with me.

147

They-- somehow they end up in the suitcase.

148

I see. No, that is a condition.

149

That's called kleptomania. - Kleptomania?

150

Yeah, I thought so. - Yeah.

151

Thief. - Yes.

152

I'm very good at stealing .

153

You've got a Dred helmet.

154

Yes. You've got a Butcher crowbar.

155

You've got a Butcher jacket.

156

You've got a Lord of the Rings helmet, which was actually given to me.

157

I didn't steal that one.

158

I've got like-- I've got sunglasses from the Bourne Supremacy. - Oh, wow.

159

I mean, I've got-- I've just collected - It's really smart. - From everything, You know.

160

I should have done that.

161

It is smart, but then you end up with just, like, a house full of stuff that-- you know. - Yeah.

162

I don't know.

163

It sounds like a museum to me, the Karl Urban Museum.

164

Oh, I'd visit.

165

I'd visit that museum.

166

Yeah.
