Mortal Kombat was faced with some pretty massive expectations, but it actually ended up giving fans of the franchise just about everything they wanted and expected. The video game adaptation featured fan-favorite characters like Scorpion and Sub-Zero and provided plenty of the R-rated fatalities that were promised. However, one character who didn’t show up is the iconic Johnny Cage. Despite this, the character was teased at the end of the film and, should a sequel be made, he’ll likely appear. The tease was enough to get fans excited, but it turns out it could have played out much differently.
