Filming for the sequel began in June and was expected to be completed by September. However, due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, production was halted in July. Since many postponed projects experienced significant delays, it was unclear when Mortal Kombat 2 could be picked up again, but the project is likely to have a pretty high priority at Warner Bros. Priority list. With no announced release date announced for the film, there has been no official delay and with filming getting back on track, it shouldn’t be long before the film hits theaters.
