Warner Bros. dropped the red band Mortal Kombat trailer and it made fans go crazy. This trailer everything that a red band trailer should be. Now, before we see some fans reactions if you haven’t watched the trailer then do check it down below.
This rebooted version of Mortal Combat is directed by Simon McQuoid, and this is the first time he is directing a feature film. He very well managed to maintain the gore of the video game in the movie trailer which made fans excited.
*watches MORTAL KOMBAT trailer and reaction*
Sort of amazing it took 28 years for this town to realize the bIg sEcReT kEy to video games adaptations was just "do what the game does, but do it earnestly" and not as some winking, obligatory nod – including the story itself.

Really, REALLY impressed with the Mortal Kombat trailer. Seems to perfectly incapsulate what the franchise is…which is not about death…but life!#MortalKombatMovie pic.twitter.com/tQnSx43bk5

The director of the movie adds a new character Cole in the movie that is not present in the games. While talking to IGN he said,
“We felt it was okay to bring in a new character given that Mortal Kombat has over the years introduced new characters quite a bit.”
I have no interest in Mortal Kombat…
