Director Kevin Tancharoen sat down with Hadoken.net recently and discussed his upcoming project 'Mortal Kombat: Legacy'. In this interview he talks about what other characters we can expect to see in his series, where it hopes it will lead, how much violence we can expect, and he addresses something the fans have pointed out since day one, where the heck is Liu Kang.
On what characters we will see in the series, and the absence of Liu Kang:
Through your twitter posts, we saw few characters from the series, like scorpion, Jax, Sonya, Raiden, Kano and Kitana we also saw confirmations for other characters like Stryker, Cyrax, and Sektor. Are there more characters that you have not announced that will be featured in the show ?
Baraka, Shao Khan, Queen Sindel, Shang Tsung, Johnny Cage and Sub Zero.
What about the series hero Liu Kang? is he in as well?
I want to save that for season 2. It will be a story about him and Kung Lao.
He also tells fans that they can definitely expect to see some blood and gore in the series:
"You can expect it to be violent. We didn’t have to restrict ourselves to any rating…so be prepared for blood."
And he talks a little bit about the series premiere next week:
It’s the iconic storyline of Jax, Sonya and Kano. You get an insight to their past history and how Kano got his signature red eye.
When asked about where he hopes the series goes after this he had this to say "I’m still eyeing the movie as the ultimate goal of course."
