The much anticipated Mortal Kombat series based on the short Mortal Kombat Rebirth trailer was released yesterday 12th April 2011, this new rendition of Mortal Kombat has been given an overhaul and is a lot more darker and gritier in style than any of the series or movies previously released by New Line Cinemas. The project is an undertaking by Warner brothers in Collaboration with Ed Boons newly founded Nether Realm studios based on the popular rebirth trailer that was a pitch used by producer Kevin Tancharoen.
The film boasts an awesome cast of martial arts talent, Michael Jai White as Jax Briggs, Lateef Crowder as Baraka and Matt Mullins as Johnny cage. Ian Anthony Dale (Agent Simon Lee) from the series "The Event" stars as Hanzo Hasashi / Scorpion, the top assassin of the Shirai Ryu. The Mortal Kombat rebirth trailer wasn't a product of Ed Boon or John Tobias but it has been well recieved by the creators who hope to develop it into a movie.
After the Disasterous Mortal Kombat Annihilation that was poorly received by both fans an ordinary movie goers in 1997, any plans for a sequel where shelved with several story lines that have been scripted and re-scripted locked away in the darkest vaults of hollywood production studios. The Pilot webisode of Mortal Kombat Legacy is refreshing with an intricate storyline exploring and developing characters in a way we haven't seen before and Im sure this will breath new life into the franchise and somewhat influence the direction of the game as well. Although 1 week apart and not intended by the director, the release of the webisode coincides with the release of New Mortal kombat game from the newly founded NetherRealm Studio.
MK stands out as the the top Martials arts Kombat gaming franchise persevering for more than 20 years because they spectacularly deliver what the fans want. I have been a Mortal Kombat fan from the very first series and from the very first Mortal Kombat arcade game, I am as excited as I was growing up waiting for the new MK games to be released. Checkout the New webisode to understand why I am raving like a lunatic about it.
