Moviehole reports that the upcoming Mortal Kombat film is a while off. This comes straight from Christopher Morrison, the director, who disclosed that the project is still in the “money stage.”
“MK more than likely will be an indie film [despite a] projected budget that will be between 50-60 million,” he said, adding that “it is a bit more tricky than just running down to the ATM or writing a cashiers check.”
The financing is being managed through a studio or equity situation, with Morrison stating that it will “take as long as [it] needs to take.”
As for casting, Morrison would reveal nothing, but stated that the final decision rests with production company Threshold and Midway.
