The next installment in the Mortal Kombat film series is on the horizon, and fans have been treated to an exciting first glimpse of one of its new characters: the iconic Johnny Cage. Mortal Kombat co-creator Ed Boon recently unveiled a poster featuring Karl Urban, known for his roles in "The Boys" and "Judge Dredd," as the charismatic Hollywood actor and fighter, Johnny Cage. The poster creatively mimics a promotional image for a fictional Johnny Cage movie, showcasing high-octane action with motorcycles leaping from flames.
Mortal Kombat 2 serves as a direct sequel to the 2021 reboot, which starred Lewis Tan as Cole Young, Hiroyuki Sanada as Scorpion, and Joe Taslim as Sub-Zero. Joining Karl Urban in the sequel are new cast members Adeline Rudolph as Kitana, Tati Gabrielle as Jade, and Damon Herriman as the nefarious Quan Chi.
The first movie focused on Cole Young's journey into the brutal world of Mortal Kombat and his discovery of the historical feud between Scorpion and Sub-Zero. While the plot details for the sequel remain under wraps, the rich narrative of the Mortal Kombat video game series offers a plethora of potential storylines to explore.
Originally planned for a theatrical release, the first Mortal Kombat film was impacted by the global disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and was instead released directly on HBO Max. In contrast, Mortal Kombat 2 is set to hit theaters on October 24, 2025.
In our review, we awarded the first Mortal Kombat movie a score of 7, praising it as a "spectacular display of blood, guts, and effects-heavy martial arts battles."
