Mortal Kombat 2 Will Reportedly Feature More Bloody Fatalities One of the first things we learned about Mortal Kombat was that it’d bring the games’ goretastic fatalities to the big screen intact. Writer Greg Russo and director Simon McQuoid delivered on that front, with fans recognizing many of the fatalities taken from across the franchise’s 30-year history, including smashed heads, shattered arms, improvised heart surgery, souls sucked out, and a very satisfying death by garden gnome. With Mortal Kombat having exceeded expectations at the box office, a sequel is reportedly already being worked on. Russo has teased that he wants to explore more of the Shaolin monks and Sonya and Jax’s special ops team, there’s the imminent arrival of Johnny Cage, and we’re (finally) going to get a proper Mortal Kombat tournament.
