## Resource

We take another break from Mike White May to travel back to Netherrealm, Outworld, and everywhere in between (looking at your Orderrealm) with the sequel to 2021's COVID classic Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat II. With the first tournament in the books, the latest film shifts focus to Johnny Cage (played by Karl Urban) as he is thrown right into the mix of the latest struggle of wills between Raiden, Shang Tsung, and the ultimate baddie, Shao Kahn.
