Jeremy Slater, the head writer of Marvel Studios' Moon Knight, has signed on to pen a sequel to last year's hit Mortal Kombat, based on the video games.
Warner Bros. Pictures’ plan to simultaneously release films in theaters and on HBO Max had some negative effects on the studio’s box office numbers. But the Mortal Kombat reboot was one of the studio’s few success stories of 2021. According to Deadline, the film had about 5.6 million streams on HBO Max in its first month alone, making the reboot of the popular franchise a hit for the young streamer. That may be why New Line Cinema is officially greenlighting a Mortal Kombat sequel.
Slater confirmed his involvement with Mortal Kombat 2 with a post on Twitter. He also made some promises to fans of the franchise.
