Mortal Kombat Movie: Where Are They Now?
10. Christopher Lambert/James Remar – Raiden
Lord Raiden will once again return for Mortal Kombat, this time portrayed by Tadanobu Asano who played Hogun in the Thor trilogy. He's got some pretty big shoes to fill, stepping in after Christopher Lambert and James Remar each took a stab at the role.
After Mortal Kombat, the former reprised his most iconic movie role in Highlander: Endgame. Although Lambert will always be remembered as Connor MacLeod, he's appeared here and there in other things, most recently in The Black List.
James Remar replaced Lambert in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Though fans usually prefer Lambert to Remar as Earthrealm's protector, Remar has had a stronger career since Mortal Kombat.
Remar frequently has significant roles in TV, with Sex and the City, Dexter, Animal Kingdom, and Black Lightning among the most popular. You can also find him in films like X-Men: First Class, Blade: Trinity, Pineapple Express, Horns, Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood.
