Hands down the most action-packed fun I’ve ever had on a film! Can’t wait for y’all to see it. Special thanks to everyone off-set who helped make this time here on the Gold Coast Australia such a pleasure.”

ProducerTodd Garner confirmed that filming had wrapped on the movierecently, but did have a caveat for fans. He shared that the trailer unfortunately won’t be out for a while, as they have a lot of work left to do on the movie.
In terms of story details, we know very little about the follow-up so far, other than some exciting new cast members. Alongside Urban, Tati Gabrielle has joined as Jade, Adeline Rudolph as Kitana, Martyn Ford as Shao Kahn, Desmond Chiam as King Jerrod, and Ana Thu Nguyen as Queen Sindel.
Damon Herriman has also joined the cast, and he’ll likely be playing Quan Chi. Not only did producer Garner retweet an announcement of that casting, buthe also shared a very intriguing tease for the antagonist on social media.Based on the new characters, our best guess is that the sequel heads into the realm of Edenia as war lingers on the horizon.
