Duke Nukem doesn’t really fit in the modern world, except as the poster boy of toxic masculinity. As much as I like the OG games for the gameplay, I don’t see the character working now unless they change him dramatically.
I dunno, it was pretty over the top back then already. Just lean into it, put him across some ultra feminist and let them both grow from it. Similar to Austin Powers. I think Civvie said something along those lines in his DN Forever video.
It’s either that or ratchet him up to the point he’ll bang anyone that expresses interest in him regardless of gender, omnisexual murder machine Duke anyone?

Same could be said for doom guy really. They just need to cut back on toxic masculinity and add more brutal killing.

That sounds … genius
