Warner Bros. and new lines create a sequel to the Mortal Movie Kombat with Writer Knight Moon Jeremy Slater onboard, deadlines have reported. This will follow up on the original R-rated film that performs decent box office numbers ($ 83 million worldwide) considering the pandemic, and is the most successful HBO Max film until now when launched last April.
Above creating Knight Moon (with Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke), Slater worked on Stephen King’s the TommyKnockers adaptation for Universal and the coming Netflix film directed by Travis Knight. He also developed the Umbrella Academy for Netflix The original film is as gory as you would remember the hardness of the game, but the writer Scenario Greg Russo also tried to inject several humor. It is not known if the Mortal director Kombat Simon McQoid will be involved again, but last year he said the sequel could happen “if fans want another.”
The original seems to be designed to set another sequel, with one criticism that describes it as “homework you have to do before pleasure.” He received a ranked number of naughty tomato critics 54 percent, but was highly valued by the audience that gave a score of 86 percent.
