With many of it's principle actors wrapping their time on the Vancouver set, production stages of the newest live-action Mortal Kombat series are drawing to an end.
Mortal Kombat Online has covered the progress of the project extensively, from breaking rumors, to its official announcement, and all the most recent cast and crew details to leak online.
We took a special look at the Twitter revolution being led by starring actress, Jeri Ryan [full story], who provided unique insightabout her experiences in Vancouver, to and from the set, with photographs from behind the action. Given her involvement in promoting the series, it's fitting that we share in this exciting unveiling of the first official screen from the upcoming live-action Mortal Kombat series, which features Ryan's Sonya Blade in peril against an unidentifiable assailant.
That might just be the back of the head of Darren Shahlavi, recently announced actor who will step into the role of Black Dragon villain and arch-nemesis to Sonya, Kano [full story]. Or, failing that, it might be one of the other big baddies yet to be officially confirmed for the series.
The completion of work speaks to director Kevin Tancharoen's ability to get the most out of his budget and schedule, a feature that no doubt helped him secure the role on the back of his independently produced short, MK: Rebirth. With an expected release through digital distribution channels sometime in April, the wait to learn how one project relates to the other is nearly over. The series will coexist to promote the new Mortal Kombat game, released April 19.
