It's expected to start shooting next year in March and released in 2013. Why so early? I don't know. I'm thinking they're going to make it big. I hope it can exceed 2hrs and R rated. According to the IMDB page, no cast has been mentioned. But the director is going to be the one who made the webseries. Oh, here's the link to the update

Eh, I'm not expecting a whole lot.
The bad outweighed the good in the web series imo.
And one year to make it?

Like I said, not expecting much.

Yeah apparently one year to make it. I'm skeptical at the moment. I agree, I shouldn't expect much but it's really giving me an adrenaline. I guess, It's because the last 2 were only made in the 90's and nothing else came after in theaters. The webseries was kinda disappointing in my opinion. Well, i shouldn't judge the movie yet since it hasn't been made. I just read he wants an original story so that it can relate to all audience instead of fans of the games. He also wants an R rated. Which is good to be R rated.
 
If Michael Jay White si in the movie and plays jax like in the series, the script cant be too bad, especially if they also get Matt Mullins to play as Johnny Cage like in the rebirth episode. those two fought in blood & bones already and it was one of the most awesome fighting scenes in martial art movies ever http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXRb1-ld2sc
 
Oh please god don't let White be Jax again.


White is an amazing fighter and is built like a god, but his overly macho voice is so annoying.
Especially when you know what he actually sounds like.
 
It only takes I think about a year to a year an half to make a movie. Look at the ASM movie they started shooting in January. Next month will be a full year. I have some expectation for the movie only because VG movies tend to dont do so well. I hope that Kevin can make this work.
 
I dont know guys, they worked wonders with Street Fighter the Legend of Chun Li and the Tekken live action movie( i own both blu rays and dvd copys of these). I think were in for a treat!!
 
I'm still over excited though. :( I just hope I don't have to regret the movie though. I had almost the same expectations for Scream 4 and Hostel 3 and I was a bit disappointed and unsatisfied. I hope this surpasses the 2 movies. I'm ever so curious on what kind of music there gonna put and if it's going to fit with the movie. Even if they have a opening theme original. :o ;O
 
hostel 3? I need to check that out now! i loved the first two movies, but anyways,
this is not news, the movie was announced back in September, and for everyone skeptical about this movie mind that the legacy episodes were made in 18 days with bosses breathing down his neck to get it done in that time and with less than 2 million dollars, compare to a normal movie no matter how simple at least take 4 months to film and up to a year editing . If that dude made that with that little amount of time and money (compared to any budget movie) im sure he will knock it out of the park with the budget and filming time he is getting now. I just hope they get the casting right. if anyone get any casting news please post it up!
 
I dont think liu kang is 70 pounds so iko wont be a good choice, the guy that played young bruce lee in the new movie would be better, but rain would be even better.
