On June 8, 2010, Mortal Kombat: Rebirth surfaced on YouTube amid confusion about its origins and intentions. The director Kevin Tancharoen said he'd been thinking about a Mortal Kombat reboot for some time, so he wrote and directed the film over a weekend without a studio's involvement. With the help from friends and colleagues, he did it with only a $7,500 budget. It accidentally got leaked but received an overwhelming positive reception from fans. Tancharoen met with Warner Bros. executives, who agreed to fund a web series based titled Mortal Kombat Legacy. Episode 1 is below, the entire series can be found on the youtube channel.
