A new poster for the Mortal Kombat reboot has been released.
The poster features the new logo for the film, as well as a golden version of the classic Mortal Kombat logo.
"Trailer in the new year. Sorry it took so long to get this out," producer Todd Garner wrote last year when the film was delayed to April 2021.Â
Mortal Kombat will serve as a reboot of the film franchise, which is based on the highly popular video game series of the same name. Paul W.S. Anderson previously adapted the Mortal Kombat video games to film with 1995's Mortal Kombat and its sequel, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Screenwriter Greg Russo has said the new film will hew more closely to the games, particularly while adapting the gruesome "fatalities" that have become a staple.
Directed by Simon McQuoid and produced by James Wan, Mortal Kombat stars Lewis Tan as Cole Young; Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade; Josh Lawson as Kano; Tadanobu Asano as Lord Raiden; Mehcad Brooks as Jackson "Jax" Bridges; Ludi Lin as Liu Kang; Chin Han as Shang Tsung; Joe Taslim as Bi-Han and Sub-Zero; Hiroyuki Sanada as Hanzo Hasashi and Scorpion; Max Huang as Kung Lao; Sisi Stringer as Mileena; Matilda Kimber as Emily Young; and Laura Brent as Allison Young. The film arrives in theaters and on HBO Max April 16.
