With the full roster of Mortal Kombat 1 now revealed, including base characters, Kameo Fighters, and the Kombat Pack, anticipation is high. The 3D models of the characters are inspired by their 2D counterparts, yet until recently, there was uncertainty about the voice cast. Fans were eager to know if the voices they've come to love would be part of this new installment.
That question was answered during an interview at San Diego Comic-Con 2023 with Skybound, where Mortal Kombat creator Ed Boon confirmed that J.K. Simmons will indeed voice Omni-Man. Known for his role in Amazon Prime Video's series Invincible, Simmons brings a familiar and compelling voice to the game.
