Among this week’s headlines: Netflix is set to make a series about Bubba Wallace, Showtime giving Dexter a new ending with the debut of Season 9 this fall, and more. Chris wraps up every episode of FilmBookCast with a movie review. In FilmBookCast Ep. 136, he analyzes and reacts to Mortal Kombat directed by Simon McQuoid. MMA fighter Cole Young (Lewis Tin), accustomed to taking a beating for money, is unaware of his heritage — or why Outworld’s Emperor Shang Tsung (Chin Han) has sent his best warrior, Sub-Zero (Joe Taslim), an otherworldly Cryomancer, to hunt Cole down. Fearing for his family’s safety, Cole goes in search of Sonya Blade (Jessica McNamee) at the direction of Jax (Mehcad Brooks), a Special Forces Major who bears the same strange dragon marking Cole was born with. Soon, he finds himself at the temple of Lord Raiden (Tadanobu Asano), an Elder God and the protector of Earthrealm, who grants sanctuary to those who bear the mark. Here, Cole trains with experienced warriors Liu Kang (Ludi Lin), Kung Lao (Max Huang), and rogue mercenary Kano (Josh Lawson), as he prepares to stand with Earth’s greatest champions against the enemies of Outworld in a high-stakes battle for the universe. But will Cole be pushed hard enough to unlock his arcana — the immense power from within his soul — in time to save not only his family, but to stop Outworld once and for all?
