Mortal Kombat fans rejoice as New Line Cinema lifts the veil, revealing the rest of the Mortal Kombat 2 cast. The news showcasing the new Kombatants came alongside the information that Lewis Tan as Cole Young, Jessica McNamee as Sonya Blade, and Josh Lawson as Kano will return from Mortal Kombat (2021). The old cast will team up with Karl Urban as Johnny Cage, Adeline Rudolph as Kitana, and Tati Gabrielle as Jade.
Mortal Kombat 2 is set to be directed by Simon McQuoid, with the script penned by Jeremy Slater (Moon Knight). The story is set to follow Earthrealm’s heroes as they defend our planet from the forces of Outworld by engaging their champions in Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat was a success for New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Studios when the film was released in both theaters and on HBO Max in the spring of 2021. The film succeeded during the COVID pandemic, and a sequel was quickly green-lit.
The Newest Addition to the Roster
Martyn Ford, Desmond Chiam, Ana Thu Nguyen, and Damon Herriman have entered the Kombat zone. Martyn Ford is best known for F9 (2021), and The Machine (2023) brings the mighty Shao Khan to life. While Desmond Chiam (With Love) is King Jarrod, the husband to Ana Thu Nguyen’s (The Spy Who Never Dies) Sindel. Lastly, Damon Herriman will return from 2021’s Mortal Kombat, but instead of reprising his role as the voice of Kabal, he will be portraying Quan Chi.
The massive roster will be rounded out with Tadanobu Asano as Lord Raiden, Mehcad Brooks as Jax, 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, and Max Huang as Kung Lao.
