Subscribe to our newsletterAfter the Street Fighter movie's Andrew Schulz made a dig at the Mortal Kombat movie at last year's Game Awards, Cole Young actor Lewis Tan has hit back – but there's no hard feelings, because he "loves a good rivalry."
"When you watch the fights and you watch even the drama in the second one, it's so Mortal Kombat, it's so tuned in. Probably the best fight film of the year, I'd say. Well, there's one other contender," Tan said on The Brandon Davis Show, before the Game Awards dig.

"There's another game out there, they also flew around the world to be here because they appreciate you, so give it up for the whole cast of Mortal Kombat 2… I'm just kidding, they didn't come," Schulz, who will play Dan Hibiki in the upcoming adaptation, said on stage at the Game Awards in December 2025. They don't care about you, they only care about money. We care about money and you. Street Fighter forever!"
When Davis asked if there was a rivalry between the two movies, Tan replied, "I mean, yeah. Let's go, bro… I love a good rivalry, so let's go. The trailer looked awesome… We'll see what's up. Numbers don't lie."
