Mortal Kombat Legacy Season 2 Trailer Promises Second Round Of Martial Arts Madness

Kevin Tancharoen is back to keep the spirit of Mortal Kombat alive for fans everywhere, for one more season at least. The trailer to the second season of Mortal Kombat Legacy went live today and promises at least a few surprising cast changes for fans.

For starters, everyone's favorite martial arts narcissist is now no longer being played by Matt Mullins. This season Johnny Cage will in fact be played by Rico Casper Van Dien. Crazy right? To be fair I haven't seen much of Mr. Dien's work. For all I know he can throw a snap kick that would put me in traction. It still won't make up for The Omega Code.

The most welcome surprise in the cast change this season? Why, the inclusion of Cary Tagawa (a.k.a. the original Shang Tsung) of course! This casting choice is long overdue and will hopefully help to bring back that Mortal Kombat magic that fans of the franchise have been missing out on.

Continue reading for a funny video from Legacy director Kevin Tancharoen as he gives a brief look at what you can expect from the Season 2 Kombatants.

It should be interesting to see them (hopefully) tell a story around the tournament itself rather than the series of genesis stories that comprised the first season. Keep checking back to stay in the old Mortal Kombat loop as we'll be throwing up the first episode once it roundhouses the interweb later this year.
