The moment this short film, based on Mortal Kombat hit the web, speculation went mental over what exactly was it. Was it official? Well, it’s glossy and features Michael Jai White and Jeri Ryan. Was it a promo or test for the rumoured new Mortal Kombat film? It seemed feasible, and now it appears that’s exactly what it is. Latino Review says it a test video shot for Warner Brothers to get funding for a full blown hard ‘R’ MK movie. It was directed by Kevin Tancharoen, who made last year’s Fame, witrh the footage presumably showing up on Youtube to guage the public response (incidentally, Jeri Ryan has since tweeted to confirm it is indeed a test for a movie).
