The hotly-anticipated Mortal Kombat is headed to theaters and HBO Max on April 23, and today a brand spankin’ new piece of poster art has arrived for the film’s IMAX release.
Bloody Disgusting friend Boss Logic is behind this latest Mortal Kombat art, a colorful look at the film that pits Scorpion on one side and Sub-Zero on the other. In between the two MK icons are the various other players we’ll be hanging out with in the movie, including Mileena, Kabal, Lord Raiden, Shang Tsung, Sonya Blade, Jax Briggs, Liu Kang, and more.
Check out Boss Logic’s killer art down below!
The film is helmed by award-winning Australian commercial filmmaker Simon McQuoid, marking his feature directorial debut, and produced by James Wan (The Conjuring universe films, Aquaman), Todd Garner (Into the Storm, Tag), McQuoid and E. Bennett Walsh (Men in Black: International, The Amazing Spider-Man 2).
In Mortal Kombat, ”MMA fighter Cole Young, accustomed to taking a beating for money, is unaware of his heritage—or why Outworld’s Emperor Shang Tsung has sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole down. Fearing for his family’s safety, Cole goes in search of Sonya Blade at the direction of Jax, a Special Forces Major who bears the same strange dragon marking Cole was born with. Soon, he finds himself at the temple of Lord Raiden, an Elder God and the protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Here, Cole trains with experienced warriors Liu Kang, Kung Lao and rogue mercenary Kano, as he prepares to stand with Earth’s greatest champions against the enemies of Outworld in a high stakes battle for the universe. But will Cole be pushed hard enough to unlock his arcana—the immense power from within his soul—in time to save not only his family, but to stop Outworld once and for all?”
