In case you missed it, the upcoming Mortal Kombat reboot movie has officially wrapped filming. There’s still work to be done, of course, but for now, the actors are basically through with their contributions to the film. While several of the cast members like Ludi Lin and Mehcad Brooks were quick to take to social media to celebrate wrapping filming, Lewis Tan wasn’t in the initial wave, but his response was no less thankful or emotional.
“Picture wrap on Mortal Kombat!” Tan shared over on Instagram. “This will take awhile to process before I can put the feelings into words accurately, for now I’m depleted, physically and emotionally, I’m delighted and exhilarated, that is how it should feel at the end, give everything for the art. Risk it all. We made something truly special here. I’m proud.”

It’s worth noting here that Tan’s role in the film has yet to be officially confirmed. Given that the vast majority of the bigger roles have already been filled, speculation online is that Tan portrays either Johnny Cage or an entirely new character. Regardless, it sounds like Tan had an incredible time with it.
