If you thought Mortal Kombat was just about colorful characters butchering each other in all manner of bloody and brutal ways, think again. Mortal Kombat 2 features a drastically different take on fan-favorite characters Kitana and Jade, with the former the revenge-fuelled beating heart of the blockbuster sequel.
Though a follow-up to 2021's Mortal Kombat, with many returning cast members, Mortal Kombat 2 is something of a creative reset for the series (one star even considers the first film a "prequel" to the main event), with Adeline Rudolph's Kitana at the center of the fight for supremacy between the champions of Earthrealm and Shao Khan's Netherealm. Best known for wielding razor-sharp fans, Kitana is the tyrannical Shao Khan's adopted daughter. But Kitana has no love for the man who murdered her father, and secretly plots to take him down.
