Tan is a skilled martial artist, but Mortal Kombat features so many well-known characters that it begs the question of why they felt the need to create a dull protagonist only for this film.

I can’t really share any details about it, but we want to make something that the fans really love and I think it’s a really great creative team. They have been listening to the fan reactions and they know what fans loved about the first movie and what they didn’t. Everyone is creatively setting out to really make a sequel that tops the original in every way. We’re still very early in the process, but the fans should be really excited.
