In Mortal Kombat, MMA fighter Cole Young, accustomed to taking a beating for money, is unaware of his heritage-or why Outworld's Emperor Shang Tsung has sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero, an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole down. New Line Cinema presents the highly anticipated new installment in the classic video game franchise, MORTAL KOMBAT II. This time, the fan-favorite champions-now backed by Johnny Cage himself-face off in a final, lawless tournament to overthrow the reign of Shao Kahn, a tyrant who threatens the very existence of Earthrealm and his followers.
