Mortal Kombat 1 had a huge ad campaign, including but certainly not limited to a live-action ad featuring Dave Bautista, and bagging Megan Fox on the voice cast. But perhaps the most eye-catching of all was its ad spot on the MSG Sphere, something no one nearby would have been able to look away from.
Cliff Bleszinski Talks Gears of War Movie, If Dave Bautista Would Make a Good Marcus Fenix
16.09.2023 - 18:59 / comingsoon.net / Dave Bautista / Cliff Bleszinski / Of War
Gears of War creator has revealed whether he’s involved in the movie adaptation of the video game as well as his thoughts on Dave Bautista possibly starring in the film.
In an interview with ComingSoon, Bleszinski was asked about if he’s been asked to take part in the production of the movie. He revealed that nobody has reached out to him, but that he’d love to consult on it and approves of the popular fancasting of Dave Bautista as Marcus Fenix.
“Absolutely not. Nobody’s reached out to me and it’s weird … Marcus is like Bruce Willis in Die Hard — everything he touches seems to turn to crap. I used to say back in the day, I didn’t want like a pro wrestler to play Marcus. But Bautista has emerged from the pro wrestling circuit and has shown his range in Blade Runner 2049 and Knock At the Cabin and Guardians of the Galaxy and whatnot. He literally did that cosplay — he’s wearing the armor that he posted on social media, and he has my full support as … people consider me to be ‘the father of Gears.’ I would love for nothing more than to consider consulting on the movie.”
Netflix currently plans to adapt Gears of War into a live-action movie that will be followed by an adult animated series and potentially further projects after that. Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista has been quite open about wanting to be in the Gears of War film, stating that the part of main character Marcus Fenix is a “dream role,” though as of last month, the actor hadn’t heard anything about being added to the cast.

One Change Would Make Zelda: TOTK’s Ending So Much Better
The main story in is nothing short of grandiose, but its ending took a turn that missed an opportunity for more poignancy. As a direct sequel to, at the end of which Calamity Ganon was seemingly destroyed, gets rather inventive with its narrative, choosing to tell two parallel arcs spanning untold millennia. Its conclusion is satisfying and emotional, but one change could have been for the better, though such an ending seems incredibly unlikely with the history of Nintendo's flagship fantasy series.
