Mortal Kombat 1 gets a celebrity feature, much like its predecessors and this time it's all about Nitara.

In Mortal Kombat universe, Nitara is a vampire from a part of the Outworld who may look evil but really isn't and only does what's necessary to survive.

Besides that, she attempts to separate her realm from Outworld, which makes her somewhat of a freedom fighter.

Now it is unclear what role or views NetherRealm Studios will give her in Liu Kang's new universe but one thing is certain - she will be played by Megan Fox, as shown by the trailer below.

This continues Mortal Kombat series' tradition of having a celebrity or two in every game, with MK11 currently being the record holder with the likes of Sylvester Stallone, Peter Weller and Ronda Rousey.

Considering that Mortal Kombat 1 has not released yet, the game might feature even more celebrities in the future but such news will have to wait until Kombat Packs are revealed.

After all, RoboCop and Rambo voices weren't in the base game of Mortal Kombat 11 either.

In any case, Nitara has a few Easter Eggs it seems, with the most obvious one being Jennifer's Body, a movie where Megan Fox already played a succubus, a mythic being that the Mortal Kombat character resembles in appearance.

At 1:25 in the trailer, Kung Lao asks what Nitara did with Jen's body which is bound to draw a few chuckles from the fans.
