Okay, so the new trailer for the Mortal Kombat sequel is here, and it definitely looks like we’re heading straight for the Tournament! As a fan of the games, I was excited to see some new faces joining the cast – Adeline Rudolph as Kitana and Tati Gabrielle as Jade both look fantastic, and Martyn Ford is absolutely terrifying as Shao Kahn. Thankfully, Joe Taslim is back as Noob Saibot, which is a huge win. Simon McQuoid is returning to direct, and the script this time comes from Jeremy Slater, who recently worked on Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. Overall, it’s shaping up to be a pretty promising continuation of the story.

It was such a fun and clever movie, and I was so excited to see it do so well!

What truly makes The Last of Us special is its incredible character development. The strongest episodes are deeply moving, and the writers quickly create characters you genuinely care about and see as fully realized people.
