The short film Mortal Kombat: Rebirth was released "by mistake"

The director had not intention of spreading it in an interview with Gamasutra, Kevin Tancharoen, director of the short film Mortal Kombat: Rebirth, said that the first video series was made public for a trivial mistake. Tancharoen it simply wanted to show his work to his friend, and we uploaded the video on YouTube, but with the intention to make the content private.

Fate would have it, forgot to select the appropriate settings for privacy, and so the video was made public and immediately viewed by thousands of people since last June. "I'm not exactly an expert on YouTube," he admitted. "What we ended up in the network should not be the final version of my film.

In practice it was not ready yet, it was just a 'draft', but I could not send a file to 2 GB via e-mail, and so I my friend and we created a private page on YouTube so I could make him see. " "Then it turned out that the link was not private. I looked at Twitter and saw that the video was already looking to spread, at which point I thought I bungled, and that the actors in the film would be angry a lot.

Thank God the people liked it, otherwise things would have gone very badly. " Instead it went well, given that the director has got the green light from Warner Bros. to create the series. Mortal Kombat: Rebirth will explore, in the course of ten episodes, the history of characters like Scorpion, Johnny Cage and Liu Kang, but also make their appearance Sonya and Jax.

Tancharoen Warner hopes that will allow him to go to the cinema, if successful. "What we really want is to turn this project into something bigger," he said. "It would be great to tell stories that bring each character to a certain point, then combine them all together for a great movie in 3D." Currently under construction in Vancouver, the series will be published in the spring through some online store.
