I saw a lot of speculation that it's Scoprion, but why not announce him if it is. Why beat around the bush with this guy. I'm thinking this could probably go back to what DLKMK1989 was talking about in terms of Hollywood constantly changing established characters and I wouldn't be surprised if it's Johnny Cage cause they could very well be concerned that someone might get offended by having a martial arts movie star being a white guy, so they could naturally decide Cage should be a mixed-raced Asian instead. That's Hollywood in 2019 after all. My money is on him playing Kung Lao.
