Mortal Kombat 2 Starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson?

BY JC Paredes 4 years AGO 2 MIN READ

Rebooting Mortal Kombat with an emphasis on violent, graphic combat scenes akin to the popular video game series was a big hit last year. Mortal Kombat 2  has just been announced by the production studio, and the first teaser was posted on Twitter.

Jeremy Slater will be writing the feature-length picture, according to Deadline. Among his most notable works are Umbrella Academy, The Exorcist, and Moon Knight, a Marvel series that will be on Disney+ and has already broken records in popularity. Clearly, he’s an author who can write works that are just as dark as the mainstream.

Dwayne “Shao Kahn” Johnson?

A rumor has surfaced in conjunction with the announcement of Mortal Kombat 2. What if Dwayne Johnson took on the role of the merciless Shao Kahn? The Hollywood star recently revealed to Men’s Journal that he will soon be taking part in a new video game film adaptation.

“I can’t tell you which game, in particular, we’re doing, but there will be an announcement this year. We’re going to bring one of the biggest, most badass games to the screen—one that I’ve played for years. I’m really excited to bring it to fans around the world. Of course, we’re going to do right by our gamer friends—but really we’re just going to make a great movie.”
– Dwayne Johnson

Just a little bit of information was enough to start the fire. BossLogic, a well-known artist, has also shared a picture of the villain masquerading as The Rock on Twitter.

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
