Considering his propensity for playing villains, fans will no doubt be excited to see Herriman’s take on Quan Chi. Movie and television viewers may recall that Damon Herriman has a history of portraying villains in shows like “Justified” and “Mindhunter.” It’s also worth noting that the performer provided the voice for Kabal in the first “Mortal Kombat” movie, so he’s already in the club to some extent.
The list of returning characters is expansive, with each of the surviving cast members from the previous “Mortal Kombat” set to return. However, the list does have some more surprising reprisals, as well. For example, Kano (Josh Lawson), Sub Zero (Joe Taslim), and Kung Lao (Max Huang) — all of whom were killed in the first film — are also set to return.
Still, being that this is a series set in a fantastic universe where warriors can return from the depths of hell and transform into massive dragons, it’s possible that there could be some elaborate explanations for their return, including Quan Chi’s necromancy. Either way, fans can no doubt expect to see more of these new characters, including the sinister demon Quan Chi, as “Mortal Kombat 2” continues to loom over the horizon.
