Back in 2021, the Mortal Kombat film reboot quickly became known as a top-tier video game adaptation. As such, whispers of a follow-up have been floating around, and the movie is seemingly moving forward.
According to Deadline, director Simon McQuoid will return to direct the Mortal Kombat sequel. Details beyond this are sparse, likely because there hasn’t been much in the way of official announcements. However, reports from earlier this year claimed Moon Knight writer Jeremy Slater is involved in some capacity. Slater also has writing credits on Fantastic Four (2015) and Death Note (2017).
