EXCLUSIVE
A New Battle For Mankind Begins in 'Mortal Kombat' Tourney, Redo in the Works

Bloody Disgusting received word that Warner Bros. Pictures has been looking to redo Mortal Kombat with Oren Uziel in talks to write. Based on Midway's popular 1992 video game, the franchise follows the best fighters from around the globe who are summoned to an island to compete in a tournament whose outcome will determine the fate of the entire planet. Uziel's Shimmer Lake made the 2009 black list, which features the best unproduced screenplays around Hollywood. Johnny Cage was modeled after Jean-Claude Van Damme. No word on the progress of the remake, but we'd like to see a hard "R" version with some actual f*cking fatalities.

I WANT FATALITIES!

I still want a bad ass game for the 360 and PS3. Instead we got a toned down Mortal Kombat vs DC Comics. Boring! Bring me some brutal fatalities.

Hope they go through with it and do it right! this could be killer if we get to see a hard R rating with some really brutal fatalities.

Is the ball finally rolling? I've been reading about another Mortal Kombat movie since 2002. It seems that all there is is talk. Hopefully it actually happens this time.

Definitely would be cool to see them do a film like the way they made Resident Evil Degeneration. You could GORE the fuck out of it!

Just have Donnie Yen do the fight choreography. That way at least the fight scenes will be respectable while everything else will inevitably suck.

Mortal Kombat 9 is coming to PS3 / Xbox 360 November 2010, with the mature content and fatalities back, and is said to be a reboot of the franchise, so it make have something to do with a new movie. Warner Brothers bought Midway games last year, so now they have the rights to MK, so this should definatley pan out and this would be a fucking dream come true if it was hard R.
