MORTAL KOMBAT Exclusive Clip - Opening Scene | NEW (2021)

Mortal Kombat opens to a peaceful Japanese home nestled in a quiet forest. After a loving exchange, Hanzo Hasashi (Hiroyuki Sanada) leaves his wife, son, and newborn baby at the house while he heads out to collect water from a stream. The wife and son try to soothe the fussy baby to sleep when the wife remarks how cold the house seems. Outside, there are brief but sudden sounds of combat and the shadowed silhouette of the guard stationed just outside gets run-through, his blood splattering the fusuma walls as the blade cuts through it. The son carefully tucks the baby beneath the floorboards. Bi-han (Joe Taslim) steps through the gap, quietly demanding to know Hanzo Hasashi’s location. He tries to disarm the wife and son’s fear through friendly small talk and shows them his ability to conjure up ice on a whim. When they still won’t budge, his friendly demeanor breaks.
