* [[Christopher Lambert]] as [[Raiden (Mortal Kombat)|Lord RaydenRaiden]]: The god of thunder and protector of Earthrealm who guides the warriors on their journey. He desires to aid the heroes in defending Earthrealm, but as he himself is not mortal, he is not permitted to participate in the tournament and may only advise them and act to prevent cheating. [[Sean Connery]] was offered the role, but turned it down.<ref name="HolRepoKick"/>
* [[Robin Shou]] as [[Liu Kang]]: A former Shaolin monk, who enters the tournament to avenge his brother's death. He is among the first who notice Kitana's sympathy towards Earthrealm. As in most of the games in the ''Mortal Kombat'' series, Liu Kang is the main protagonist. This was Shou's second American film, as his first American role was in 1990, the made-for-television film ''[[Forbidden Nights]]''. Shou also served as an additional fight choreographer.
* [[Linden Ashby]] as [[Johnny Cage]]: A [[Cinema of the United States|Hollywood]] superstar who enters the tournament to prove to the world that his martial arts skills are legitimate. Ashby trained in [[karate]], [[tae kwon do]], and [[kung fu]] especially for this film.
