Release date reconfirmed by Liu Kang himself
The kountdown has begun for the release of Warner Bros. all-newMortal Kombatmovie which has just wrapped shooting in Australia. The latest live action adaptation of NetherRealm Studios’ gooey fighting game will hit the silver screen on July 23, 2025.
To mark the one-year countdown actor Ludi Lin – who plays classicMKprotagonist Liu Kang – tweeted out an image from the set, which shows a slate emblazoned with the new release (the film wasrecently brought forwardfrom its initially scheduled April 2021 release). Also of note, however, is the cool new take on the classicMortal Kombat“dragon” logo, which features a spiny tail encircling the fork-tongued beastie.It’s no gingerbread cake,but it looks pretty slick.
The movie will feature iconic series characters such as Raiden, Kano, Sonya Blade, Jackson Briggs, Mileena, Shang Tsung and, of course, Sub-Zero and Scorpion. While lacking somewhat in Hollywood A-listers,Mortal Kombathas cast a host of talented stuntpersons and martial artists, and is also looking at an R-rating to allow for gore galore.
We’ll find out in just under a years time whether the latest in a long line ofMortal Kombatadaptions will be a Flawless Victory or just a box office Fatality. Mortal Kombatlaunches in cinemas June 05, 2025.
