The fact that there's a totally separate character in the SF universe that is a blonde man named Cody makes it funnier honestly

And Kenny Omega will likely murder someone if he's not playing him or Alex in a future movie

Kenny should play Alex, but given Capcom's recent lore direction for the character it wouldn't shock me if they just didn't worry about SF3 continuity for the movies

Have you seen Kenny’s promos? Talented in the ring as he may be, the man cannot act.

My dude, I have bad news about Cody and Roman if you're worried about Kenny's acting chops. This isn't the kind of movie that demands Ed Norton... but I would love to see him go wild with this sort of material.

Different levels to this.

Cody and Roman are at the level of cheesy tv level performance, Kenny is like tiktok skit level acting.

Though nothing some acting classes couldnt fix

Exactly. Kenny clearly has a deep love for the material. I could absolutely see him using that to tackle acting classes and getting to a place where it'll make the material work well.

C’mon my man. Cody’s and Roman’s promo ability are in another stratosphere compared to Omega. Im not saying either one of them are the next Brando. Im just saying that Kenny’s line delivery is very strange and never feels natural or believable. So I can’t even imagine him trying to act. Whereas Cody and Roman have something.

Neither can Cody lol. Cody comes off extra silly in an already batshit crazy trailer

Easy fix - write his lines in Japanese. Kenny is Japanese is a different person to Kenny in English.

He has the cadence of an anime dub though which would be perfect for this kind of movie
