Mortal Kombat Film Character List Revealed; Scorpion And Sub-Zero Missing

July 12, 2018 by Jordan Coetsee

This is some interesting character switch-up…

Fans of the iconic fight to the death game series, Mortal Komabt may well be looking forward to the new film being produced by Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema, but considering the massive roster of characters the series has amassed over the years, who will actually be featured?

That Hashtag Show recently reported on who we can expect in the film and while faces new and old will be in the movie, some figureheads are absent.

As of right now, Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Johnny Cage aren’t on the list leading to speculation that they might not be in the film entirely. What’s also strange is that some of the characters have been changed quite drastically. Raiden is now a 14-year old boy, Sonya Blade isn’t a badass military fighter but rather a “beautiful, brainy blonde writer who chases the prophecy of Mortal Kombat”.

Let’s hope they don’t stuff up this change.


COLE TURNER – Lead Male. 30s. A brand new character to the MK franchise. Cole is a struggling and widowed boxer who cares more about his young daughter than anything. He is incredibly determined and refuses to quit in the face of fantastical adversity.

KANO – Supporting Lead Male. 30s. The large, rugged Australian ex-special forces turned merc-for-hire. He is arrogant and impetuous but a tremendous fighter.

SONYA BLADE – Supporting Lead Female. 30s. The beautiful, brainy blonde writer who chases the prophecy of Mortal Kombat. She recruits Cole and fights bravely and selflessly for a team she can only be a true part of once she earns a medallion in combat.

JIN/LORD RAIDEN – Male. 14. The immortal thunder God and protector of the Earth realm, who leads and trains the Earth team in the Underworld.

MILEENA – Female. 25-35. A drop dead gorgeous woman that is part of the Outworld side. She wears a sheer gown over thigh-high boots and a revealing one-piece, with a veil that covers her nose and mouth.

JACKSON “JAX” BRIDGES – Male. 30-40. “Jax” is a strapping mercenary/military officer who loses both of his hands in an attack and then joins Sonya and Cole to fight the Outworld.

LIU KANG – Male. 20-35. A fire throwing ninja warrior who is a talented Earth realm champion.

KUNG LAO – Male. 25-35. The mute warrior monk brother of Liu Kang, who yields an all powerful boomerang hat.

SHANG TSUNG – Male. No age specified. The great sorcerer of Outworld, whose presence is a storm cloud of dark energy. His ever-changing roulette of faces unfurls an evil smile.

DRAHMIN – Male. 25-35. An Oni devil mask over his face, his body is composed of twisted sinewy skin, a heavy spiked club replaces one arm.

KABAL – Male. 25-35. An evil assassin of Outworld, he is outfitted in a black armored vest and trench coat. His entire head is covered by a scarred black respirator. His signature weapons are two razor-sharp hook swords.

NITARA – Female. 25-35. A black-haired vampire of Outworld. Two massive leathery batwings protrude from her bare shoulders. Fresh blood drips from her fangs.

REIKO – Male. 25-40. An armor-clad Outworld General with white glowing eyes. He drags a massive war hammer with him.

THE OVERSEER – Male. Late 80’s. The overseer of the clock tower and the training grounds that house the Earth realm warriors, he is laughably old.

EMILY – Female. 12. Cole’s scrappy, determined, and wise-beyond-her-years daughter.

SOPHIA – Female. 60s. Cole’s understanding, discerning mother-in-law who houses Emily and is her primary guardian.

JESS – Female. 30-35. Cole’s judgmental sister-in-law, who believes Cole to be a selfish, bad father. She lives with Sophia and Emily.
