Big screen sequel Mortal Kombat 2 is on the way, and THR reports this afternoon that Adeline Rudolph (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) has been cast as Kitana.

THR notes, “Rudolph will play Kitana, a character first introduced in Mortal Kombat II, the video game that thrust the franchise into the 1990s pop culture mainstream and made it what it is today. Kitana, known for her cutthroat steel fans, became one of the video game series’ signature characters. Kitana has a close bond with Jade.”

Jade, we learned last week, is being played in Mortal Kombat 2 by Tati Gabrielle, who co-starred alongside Adeline Rudolph in “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.”

Karl Urban (“The Boys”) will also star in Mortal Kombat 2 as Johnny Cage.

Simon McQuoid is reportedly back to direct Mortal Kombat 2. Previously reported, Jeremy Slater (“The Exorcist”, “Moon Knight”) is writing the upcoming sequel.

Stay tuned for more on the feature film sequel as we learn it.
