Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The extent of Scorpion’s role in Mortal Kombat 2 ties into the Mortal Kombat sequel’s biggest challenge after the divisive 2021 reboot. While Mortal Kombat nailed important aspects of the video game, including the costumes and the special techniques used by the characters, the reboot left a lot to be desired in some aspects.

Yeah, exactly, he was a bookend. 10 minutes and 10 minutes. It all depends on the editing, but yeah, I was there. It was a great reunion on set, most of the cast from the first movie, maybe four or five big new characters in it. The same director, and the same costume designer, it was fun. In the Australia Gold Coast, right after the strike, we started shooting, and we're all done now.

Mortal Kombat’s main poster suggested that the conflict between Scorpion and Sub-Zero was going to be the focus of the movie. Instead, Hanzo and Bi-Han only fought each other in the opening sequence, with Scorpion returning at the end to help Cole Young fight Sub-Zero. Even the concept of Scorpion having a descendent who now has to fight Sub-Zero was not properly used, as Cole and Hanzo barely acknowledge each other at the end.
