This fan cast is for a fan-made, manga-styled Mortal Kombat shounen comic series that I want to make at some point. I aim to adapt the first four Mortal Kombat games at the very least. I want to base the characters' appearance on real actors (except for characters like Reptile and Baraka). One is because the series was based on martial arts movies like Enter the Dragon and Bloodsport. Two is because I thought it would be a cool throwback to how the sprites for the original game were created from photos of real people. You can suggest any actor you think might look the best for the character (Dead or Alive). You can also pick actors based on how they looked in their younger years as well. Also, you're not limited to only characters from the first 4 games and can suggest characters from the entire franchise. Have fun :)
