Over a decade after the disappointing Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, it’s time to fight again as the classic Midway Games favourite returns to the screen with the upcoming Mortal Kombat.
Directed by Simon McQuoid from a screenplay by Greg Russo and Dave Callaham and a story by Oren Uziel and Russo, the R-rated film stars Joe Taslim as Sub Zero, Ludi Lin as Liu Kang, Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade, Josh Lawson as Kano, Tadanobu Asano as Raiden, Mehcad Brooks as Jackson “Jax” Bridges, Chin Han as Shang Tsung, Hiroyuki Sanada as Scorpion, Max Huang as Kung Lao, and Sisi Stringer as Mileena.
James Wan (The Conjuring, Aquaman) and Todd Garner (Tag) are producing.
