New MORTAL KOMBAT Reboot Trailer Released?
There has been a viral frenzy over the past day or so regarding a piece of footage that some are believing to be the trailer for the new ‘Mortal Kombat’ movie. If this is the case then die-hard fans of the genre are in for a treat!
Jeri Ryan (who stars as ‘Sonya Blade’ in the footage) confirmed that this was actually some test footage to try to convince Warner Bros. to finance the project.
She says:
“It’s not a game trailer. Actually was made for the director to sell WB on his vision for a reimagined MK film. I did it as a favor to a friend. No idea yet what WB’s reaction to it was.”
The short film was directed by Kevin Tancharoen, who directed the ‘FAME‘ remake last year. If fans of MK are looking for a movie as gritty as the games were then he’s the man to do this project.
For all you ‘SPAWN‘ fans out there, you might recognise the actor who played Jacks (Jax) Briggs in the footage. Yes…it was indeed Michael Jai White.
If you were one of the few people who haven’t seen the footage yet…here it is:
