For gamers, one of the most anticipated films of April is the release of Mortal Kombat. That anticipation will have to wait a few more days as the release date has shifted. Warner Bros. has announced that they will be pushing back the release of Mortal Kombat from April 16th to April 23rd.
While a fan of the 1995 film, this one creates excitement based on its rating. Director Simon McQuoid has previously said that it will be pushing its R-rating,
“We wanted to push the [blood, gore and fatalities] right to the limit,”
“point where the film becomes unreleasable if you push it too far, and that would be a very unwise return on investment for the studio. But from day one it’s been, ‘Okay, we’re doing this and we’re going to do it properly.’”
