Mortal Kombat fans might want to grab their diaries: Warner Bros has announced that its Mortal Kombat movie reboot will, after years of dilly-dallying around, finally arrive in cinemas on 5th March, 2021.
A Mortal Kombat movie reboot has, of course, been long in the works, with Warner Bros first announcing a director and writer for the project - Simon McQuoid and Greg Russo, respectively - all the way back in 2016. For a while, it seemed the reboot had been lost in development hell, until plot and character details began to leak last summer. However, it was only very recently that production was finally confirmed, somewhat surprisingly by South Australian Premier Steven Marshall, to be underway in the area.
All of which brings us more or less up-to-date, and to Warner Bros' latest announcement that the Mortal Kombat movie (which reportedly has a budget of around 38,000,000, numbers fans) won't be hitting cinemas until March 2021.
