First Look At The New Mortal Kombat Reboot!

Warner Bros Tonight have shared with us the first look images at the upcoming James Wan produced Mortal Kombat reboot.

Directed by Simon McQuoid  whom we hope can bring us  that long awaited perfect video game movie adaptation. We’ve been waiting a long time for this, now being released sometime this year. Despite the synopsis below we actually still don’t know a lot about it, our hope is the film will be 18 rating (or at least 15). Anyone who has played the classic video game, it’s bloody and violent!

In “Mortal Kombat,” MMA fighter Cole Young, accustomed to taking a beating for money, is unaware of his heritage—or why Outworld’s Emperor Shang Tsung has sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole down. Fearing for his family’s safety, Cole goes in search of Sonya Blade at the direction of Jax, a Special Forces Major who bears the same strange dragon marking Cole was born with. Soon, he finds himself at the temple of Lord Raiden, an Elder God and the protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Here, Cole trains with experienced warriors Liu Kang, Kung Lao and rogue mercenary Kano, as he prepares to stand with Earth’s greatest champions against the enemies of Outworld in a high stakes battle for the universe. But will Cole be pushed hard enough to unlock his arcana—the immense power from within his soul—in time to save not only his family, but to stop Outworld once and for all?

The ensemble cast includes Lewis Tan as Cole Young; Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade; Josh Lawson as Kano; Tadanobu Asano as Lord Raiden; Mehcad Brooks as Jackson “Jax” Bridges; Ludi Lin as Liu Kang; with Chin Han as Shang Tsung; Joe Taslim as Bi-Han and Sub-Zero; and Hiroyuki Sanada  as Hanzo Hasashi and Scorpion. Also featured are Max Huang as Kung Lao; Sisi Stringer as Mileena; Matilda Kimber as Emily Young; and Laura Brent as Allison Young.

Mortal Kombat will be released by Warner Bros Pictures, hopefully in UK and Irish Cinemas in 2021. If you live in the U.S.A you can see the film in cinemas and HBO Max from 12th April.
