In adventure/fantasy Mortal Kombat 2, the Mortal Kombat fan-favourite champions, now joined by Johnny Cage (Karl Urban), are pitted against one another in the ultimate battle to defeat the dark rule of Shao Kahn. A rule that threatens the very existence of the Earthrealm and its defenders.
Directed by Simon McQuoid, additional key cast includes Mehcad Brooks, Karl Urban, Ludi Lin, Jessica McNamee and Joe Taslim.
I had fun than anticipated while watching Mortal Kombat (2021).
This new trailer doesn’t look all bad. However, I find myself missing Sub-Zero a little bit. Especially because what we saw him do in the 2021 trailer and film was impressive and cool, no pun intended.
I’ll likely give this a chance because a key reason I enjoyed the first movie was the fight choreography. May it still be great for this second instalment, seemingly without sSub-Zero.

I also prefer the trailer for the 2021 movie. This could be fun. I’m just not sure if any truly good video game movies exist yet. Is that too harsh?
Definitely, not too harsh. And there’s always hope.
Urban is a big draw for me. Yes, I will be seeing this one. Trailer looks great.
I’m glad, Lisa. I’m only familiar with Urban by name and face. I don’t recall seeing him in anything. I guess Mortal Kombat 2 isn’t a bad place to start.
Thor, Riddick, Dredd are 3 I remember. He usually doesn’t play lead roles. Nice to see him in one.
I see. Thanks for the education. 🤓
Mortal Kombat II looks a whole lot better than the first one. Mostly because Johnny Cage is a fan favorite who should’ve been there from the start. I’m also hoping Sub-Zero shows up, because he’s the face of the franchise alongside Scorpion.
I see. Mr. Cage. I’me glad the filmmakers are now giving fans what they want. My knowledge of the MK universe is poor at best, as non gamer.
I hope you’re right too about Sub-Zero. 🤓🙏🤞
A Sub-Zero cameo would be welcome. And I’d laud the trailer creators for not spoiling everything if so.
Amen to that! 🤓🥂
I believe I’ve seen the first two, but not the animated versions or the latest one. I don’t recall much, so I’d live to revisit the first one before watching the last one.
Smart plan. I also intend to watch the last one before this because I like Sub-Zero so much.
Urban was also in LOTR and Star Trek reboot trilogy.
The latter sounds familiar. I can kind of see his face in that. As for LOTR, I leave that to the super fans. 🤓
Both excellent roles
That’s great to know. I look forward to seeing what he does with Johnny Cage.
I prefer Street Fighter, but this looks fun. “It’s SHowtime!”⭐️
I sometimes confuse the two to be honest. My brother is a street Fighter fan too.
