Mortal Kombat: Rebirth Short Film Is The Real Deal!


Collider has been able to confirm that director Kevin Tancharoen (Fame) is behind the short film. It was his attempt to show Warner Bros. his vision for the new Mortal Kombat franchise. The two previous films never seemed to live up to the violent content from the video games. The short features Michael Jai White (Dark Knight, Black Dynamite) as Jaxx and Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade. It's expected that the realistic vision Tancharoen delivers is something that any MK fan will enjoy. Let's be honest if they're going hard R with the film they're going to have to keep costs down and since this was done for only $7-8,000 it should help the studio consider the director. It was shot on the RED camera system which has been used on Gamer and Book of Eli. Do yourself a favor and check out Frosty's full interview with Kevin on Collider.
