Mortal Kombat movie is out April 16, 2021 – IT Pro – Geeks

The previously announced Mortal Kombat movie will be released in theaters on April 16. From that date, the film can also be streamed immediately on streaming service HBO Max, although the service will not be available in Europe at that time.

The announcement release on April 16 means the film has been delayed by several months. Last year saw a release period of March 2021 and at the end of last year it was brought forward to January 15th. The current postponement until April 16 seems to be caused by the corona pandemic. Producer Todd Garner indicated last month that the pandemic has had an impact on the schedule and that the film would not get a release date until the cinemas reopen.

It concerns a live actionmovie and can be considered a Mortal Kombat reboot; in 1995 and 1997, two live action Mortal Kombat films were released. The new film will be directed by Australian Simon McQuoid, produced by New Line Cinema and shot in studios in the southern Australian city of Adelaide. Australian landscapes will probably be part of the film. Next year, more will be known about the film, as Garner says it’s somewhere a trailer will be released in the new year.

The announcement of the new release date of the Mortal Kombat movie will follow shortly after WarnerMedia announced that it will remove all movies scheduled for 2021, in addition to the theatrical release. also releases simultaneously on HBO Max. That also applies to Mortal Kombat. However, HBO Max is currently only available in the US. In the second half of 2021, the service will also come to Europe, but that will be at least a few months after the cinema release of Mortal Kombat.
