You may recall that kick-ass live-action Mortal Kombat web series from a few years back, Mortal Kombat: Legacy. At the time, many fans had hoped this would spawn a live-action feature-length film worthy of the Mortal Kombat name, but instead, remained a regular web series – and frankly, I wouldn’t have had it any other way.
2013 will see the release of the second season of Mortal Kombat: Legacy, and you can check out the trailer below!
Press Release:
The countdown to the second season of “Mortal Kombat: Legacy” has officially begun. Fans can get their first look at the upcoming season, now available on Machinima. From Warner Bros. Digital Distribution, “Mortal Kombat: Legacy 2” is the follow-up to “Mortal Kombat: Legacy” — one of the most-viewed web series of all time with more than 60 million views to date on Machinima. The footage showcases the non-stop action of the continuing saga as Liu Kang and Ermac join the ranks of fighters introduced in the hugely successful first season. The trailer features first glimpses into the rivalries and histories of these fierce warriors as Raiden and his recruits clash against the dark forces of Outworld in the epic battle for Earthrealm!
Kevin Tancharoen (“Mortal Kombat: Legacy”) returns to direct and co-write “Mortal Kombat: Legacy 2” alongside writers Josh Baizer and Marshall Johnson (“Dead Loss”). The cast includes Harry Shum, Jr. (“Glee”) as the warlord adviser “Kuai Liang,” Casper Van Dien (“Starship Troopers”) as martial arts film actor “Johnny Cage,” Brian Tee (“The Wolverine”) as Shaolin Monk “Liu Kang,” and Mark Dacascos (“Cradle 2 the Grave “) as “Kung Lao” – a close friend of “Liu Kang.” Additionally, Ian Anthony Dale (“Hawaii Five-O”) returns as the resurrected ninja “Scorpion,” and Cary Tagawa reprises the role he made famous in the “Mortal Kombat” theatrical release as the powerful, arrogant sorcerer “Shang Tsung.” “Mortal Kombat: Legacy 2” is produced by Lance Sloane (“Act of Valor”) and Kevin Tancharoen.
