New TV Spots for Mortal Kombat

Last month BGCP wrote a news article on Mortal Kombat’s red band trailer, which managed to surpass juggernauts Logan and Deadpool 2 in its viewership. Well, prepare to be excited once more as Warner Bros. have released a number of TV spots of the new movie.

Set for release in April on HBO Max and theatres, Mortal Kombat has been in the works for years. WB starting working on it after the release of the short film Mortal Kombat: Rebirth garnered insane amounts of attention. Based on the classic fighting video game of the same name created by Ed Boon and John Tobias, this brutal R-rated film is chock full of violence and impressive fight VFX, which is sure to delight hardcore fans of the franchise. Myself included.

The main cast consists of Lewis Tan as Cole Young, Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade, Joseph Lawson as Kano and Tadanobu Asano as Raiden. Lui Kang, Jax Briggs, Shang Tsung, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Mileena and Kung Lao are also set to appear.

The new trailers also introduce a beloved character, Goro as well as extra shots of various characters. Scorpion even appears, yelling the most famous line of them all: “Get over here!” Directed by Simon McQuoid, an Australian filmmaker who is making his feature directorial debut, having previously worked in the gaming industry for the likes of Sony. Greg Russo and Dave Callaham are the writers of the screenplay, taken from a story written by Russo himself as well as Oren Uziel.
