The 2021 version of Mortal Kombat is a reboot of the 1995-1997 Mortal Kombat films. The movies are based on the popular video game franchise of the same name. The story revolves around Cole Young, a mixed-martial arts fighter who is on a journey to discover his true identity and explore his lineage. Simon McQuoid will be making his directorial debut by directing this film. The trailer for the film surpassed Deadpool 2 and Logan to become the most-watched red-band trailer in history.

The previous instalments of the series were critical and commercial failures, resulting in the production of the third film being stopped. This reboot brings hope for better execution of the story and enhanced visuals. Last year in April, an animation film titled Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge was released, it received a very positive response from the audience. The movie was centered around a character named Scorpion, a ninja, and his quest for revenge against his family's murder.
