MORTAL KOMBAT Shorts hit the Web in April! Feature to follow in 2012?

In June, Director Kevin Tancharoen, fight choreographer Larnell Stovall and star Michael Jai White JAWS left on the ground with a seven minute fantastically dark and gravelly, long tease of a brutal spin again on the Mortal kombat universe. Yes, classic fighting video game was once again on the screen and darker and more brutal than ever before - a very good thing in this context – but the question was why. Why this thing existed? Is this a tease for the new upcoming tranche of series of video games? Was it a promo for the new film long rumors? East - something that some talented guys with famous friends did just for fun? Nobody knew.

But now do us. Bloody Disgusting broke the word for a series upcoming ten shorts Mortal kombat coming on the web in the spring, also directed by Tancharoen, with confirmation that Michael Jai White will appear as Jax and speculation that other franchise characters due to appear will Shang Tsung, Liu Kang, Sub Zero, Durak, Kabal, Kitana Mileena and Scorpion. This is what they have, but we can go a little further...

Contraction sources tell us that the first short will appear online in April to coincide with the release of the new video game. And we will hear that Raiden, Cyrax, Sektor and Kung Lao are also on the slate. Than white, that I've heard rumblings of a few other big names from the world of fight take sides, but none of those are strong enough to release at present, but fight fans have reason to be happy. Ensuring that these guys are used properly will fight choreographer Larnell Stovall, also return to the fold.

But the big news? Although it seems yet be determined wholly these ten shorts are apparently not just a vehicle PR for the game, but were also designed to set a new scenario and generate a new appearance for the franchise leading directly to another episode of big screen in 2012. So, Yes, what you saw here come on big screen assuming all goes well.

More info, as we get it but in the meantime, take some time to familiarize yourself with the court that all the buzz began in the first place. You will find below.
