What is 'Mortal Kombat 1' About?
Mortal Kombat 1 is titled as such as it reboots the wacky and turbulent Mortal Kombat timeline. Taking place after the events of Mortal Kombat 11, Liu Kang (Matthew Yang King) is now the God of Fire, the Protector of Earth Realm, and the one-time Keeper of Time. He uses Kronika's (Jennifer Hale) hourglass to rewrite history and create the perfect timeline, casting his historical friends and enemies in a brand-new story. However, Liu Kang's perfect timeline is put into jeopardy when the troublesome sorcerer Shang Tsung (Alan Lee) hatches a dastardly plan of his own.
Mortal Kombat is also set to return to the big screen next year, with Mortal Kombat 2 set to release some time in 2025. While there wasn't much news, fans were treated to a still of Kitana and her fan blade, as well as the game's creator saying he's seen a cut of the new film. While the sequel doesn't hit theaters for a while, its predecessor, Mortal Kombat 2021, is available to stream on Max.
