According to IMDB it's scheduled for 2013, but there is also legal shit going on possible even preventing it from coming out then, it's been 13 years in the making so far (at least if that is the same movie as that trailer).

So, don't get your hopes up just yet.

Edit: there is speculation about it being for a new game, cause E3 is almost here.

99% sure it's for an upcoming game, probably a MK reboot.

Fu!

star trek: Voyager actress jeri ryan has explained the truth behind a new youtube clip which started doing the rounds earlier this week and which seems to be part of a new mortal kombat movie.

According to ryan, the movie was part of a pitch to warner bros. Meant to inspire them to make a new mortal kombat movie.

"it's not a game trailer. Actually was made for the director to sell wb on his vision for a reimagined mk film," said jeri ryan, who appears in the video as fbi agent sonia blade, via twitter.

"i did it as a favour to a friend. No idea yet what wb's reaction to it was. And i'm not sure how you can contact wb to push them to make it. But you guys are resourceful!"

according to eurogamer wu-tang clan member rza has also twittered about the movie, claiming it's directed by kevin tanchoeren. Tanchoeren's previous films include the 2009 fame remake and britney spears live from miami. He's not yet attached himself to the film, however.

The movie seems to be a reboot of mortal kombat which discards the mythological basis of the games (no raiden then) in favour of a more realistic, dark and gruesome tone. It involves agent sonia blade and detective jackson briggs trying to convince an assassin to enter an underground fighting tournament to help rid the city of dangerous criminals.

Other characters featured in the clip include reptile, sub-zero, johnny cage and baraka.

There is one MK movie on IMDB billed for 2013 and it says there is still legal trouble before a movie could even be made.

Rumor has it that the video in the OP is just a demo reel. Not for a new movie or video game. Perhaps just for it to go viral or perhaps be picked up by a production company.
