Mortal Kombat 2 Movies: Release Date and Everything We Know So far

The Johnny Cage version of Mortal Kombat 2 will be played by Boy and Dredd actor Karl Urban, while other new roles include Martyn Ford as Outworld Emperor Shao Kahn, Adeline Rudolph as his adopted daughter Kitanaand CJ Bloomfield as the toothed fighter Baraka.

“His integration into “The Deadly Team Story” and “The Universe” is a big part of the film's exploration. He's a clean Hollywood guy who's thrown into this magical super violent thing. Carl, Carl, his description of Johnny Cage is different from our game in some ways,” Boone says about Urban's opinion on Johnny Cage. “He is adding his own flare to it, but I think it will feel fresh. There is a new factor out there.”

You may have noticed that some actors in the following list will play roles quite Death after the deadly Kombat incident, but as Boon explains, these games do establish scientific and magical methods of resurrection. The sinister Netherrealm wizard Quan Chi appears in the movie, and we will most likely see him using his dark magic to bend over a few warriors.

This may be especially interesting for Sub-Zero's character, who encountered his pain in the hands of Cole Young and Scorpion. In the initial deadly battle timeline, the first avatar under Zero – burned by a scorpion, his soul is sent to Netherrealm, where it is transformed into a new entity known as Noob Saibot. Cybert's younger brother will eventually become the new sub-zero where he is.
