A plethora of characters from the history of the franchise will feature in the film. Thus far; Raiden, Jax, Nitarra, Shang Tsung, Kung Lao, Kano, Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, Scorpion, Mileena, and Sub-Zero have been officially announced. However, we may know four more characters who are set to feature in the movie.
Previously, the film's writer has teased that there's more character and casting announcements to come. Going off some recently revealed set photos, which came courtesy of an Australian politician (

As you can see in the background of one of the below photos, there appears to be some concept art strung up which features the aforementioned quartet of characters. The
Mortal Kombat community seems pretty confident that they're who they think they are — but it's still worth keeping in mind that there hasn't been an official announcement on their inclusion just yet.
