Warner Bros. Animation received a pitch for an animated movie that would bring together the worlds of DC and Mortal Kombat. However, the idea of combining these two popular franchises for a full-length film was ultimately rejected.
The recent success of Mortal Kombat films such as Scorpion's Revenge and Battle of the Realms, both written by Jeremy Adams, has generated excitement for a potential crossover with Batman. This anticipation is not surprising, considering Adams' involvement in both franchises, which opens up the possibility for an exhilarating clash between these iconic worlds.
In a recent interview with ComicBook.com, Adams revealed that he and his team had pitched a crossover between the Mortal Kombat and DC franchises, but unfortunately, it was turned down. Despite this setback, Adams remains optimistic about the possibility of the project coming to life, as he finds the concept incredibly thrilling. Adams mentioned, "I would advise you to manage your expectations. I'm unsure if there are any future plans in the works. However, I do know that we proposed this idea some time ago, but it was met with resistance." Throughout the conversation, Adams made it clear that he would love to be involved in the project. He added, "Well, in the end, I really can't say whether they'll pursue it further. I truly hope they do, and if they do, I hope they reach out to include me. It would be fantastic because I'm a huge fan. But honestly, I'm not sure. Regardless, it would be amazing to witness a DC Mortal Kombat crossover. It would be unbelievably cool."
A crossover between DC and Mortal Kombat holds immense potential and has fans eagerly awaiting its realization. The success of previous collaborations, such as the 2008 game Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe and the inclusion of Mortal Kombat characters in the Injustice games, demonstrate that this partnership is feasible. Fans can't wait for the day when these two universes come together in an epic project that will undoubtedly captivate audiences with its thrilling combination.
Exciting developments lie ahead for both franchises. A sequel to the 2021 film Mortal Kombat is currently in the works, while the DC franchise undergoes changes with James Gunn's DCU reboot. Recent reports indicate that the original Justice League cast will not be returning for the new universe led by Gunn and Peter Safran, leaving fans eager to see what future projects will be released and blow their minds away.
