Mortal Kombat trailer will “get over here” in February, according to studio

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

So this is cool! It seems that the full, official Mortal Kombat reboot trailer (and not simply quick snippets in HBO Max promos) will be getting over here pretty soon, according to the studio behind the film, New Line Cinema (who helped produce the film alongside parent company Warner Bros.)

Basically, the studio's official Instagram account posted previously released stills from the upcoming film, and when asked by a commenter when the trailer would show up, the account responded "February!" Which seems pretty definitive at this point – especially considering the film's impending release on April 16th.

Here's the official synopsis:

Used to getting beaten for money, MMA fighter Cole Young is unaware of his legacy – or because Emperor Outworld Shang Tsung sent his best warrior, Sub- Zero, an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole. Fearing for the safety of his family, Cole sets out to find Sonya Blade and Jax, a special forces major who carries the same strange dragon Cole was born with. Soon he finds himself in the temple of Lord Raiden, an Elder God and Protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Here, Cole trains with seasoned warriors Liu Kang, Kung Lao, and devious mercenary Kano, as he prepares to take on Earth’s greatest champions against enemies of Outworld in a high-risk battle across the universe. But will Cole be under enough pressure to unlock his arcane – the immense power in his soul – in time to save his family and stop Outworld once and for all?

Meanwhile, Mortal Kombat is directed by Simon McQuoid and stars Joe Taslim (Sub Zero), Ludi Lin (Liu Kang), Jessica McNamee (Sonya Blade), Mehcad Brroks (Jax), Josh Lawson (Kano), Chin Han (Shang Tsung), Hiroyuki Sanada (Scorpion), Tadanobu Asano (Raiden), and Sisi Stringer (Mileena).
