FX’s Critically-Acclaimed Historical Epic Proves How Much Mortal Kombat Wasted Scorpion
FX's critically acclaimed new series not only proves that its Scorpion actor was wasted, but it also shows how his Mortal Kombat 2 role can be better.
Mortal Kombat is a multimedia franchise conceived by Ed Boon and John Tobias and began with the release of the original Mortal Kombat fighting game in arcades in 1992. The story centers around the eternal battle between Earthrealm and Outworld. To determine the fate of the realms, a deadly tournament is held between the best warriors of each world, with Earthrealm fighting solely to protect their freedom. The series has expanded to include various films, television series, and a long list of mainline and spin-off games that all revolve around the core of the Mortal Kombat tournament premise.
