Love it or hate it, and fans were very vocal about which one it was, Mortal Kombat 2 is a go and it would appear that production on the violence filled video game adaptation is looking to roll in front of cameras this June in Australia. Producer Todd Garner, via Twitter, confirmed the news himself and you can check out his humorous response below!
Original franchise film director Simon McQuoid is returning to helm once again and plot details are being kept under lock and key for now. We do know that fan favorite Johnny Cage, who was definitely missed in the first movie, will finally make his grand debut in the follow up.
Jeremy Slater has penned the ambitious sequel and casting news is forthcoming. Slater is best known for writing the Disney Plus/Marvel Studios limited series event Moon Knight. Filming is expected to wrap up next fall in September.
The original movie was released last year simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max and opened number one at the box office while ranking at the top of HBO Max’s most watched list which was truly a marvelous showing.
It’s still yet to be confirmed but it’s expected that Lewis Tan, Jessica McNamee, Joe Taslim, Mehcad Brooks, Ludi Lin, Chin Han and Tadanobu Asano are all set to return for the next adventure. Just who will play the coveted role of Johnny Cage remains the million dollar question.
