If a new Milenna is created from the remains Sonya left behind, the clone is sure to be itching for a rematch, and a third round should be the pair's best yet. During their first bout, Mileena didn't even deem Sonya worthy enough to kill, but the ex-Special Forces champion gets her revenge after (very quickly) unlocking her arcana. Not only would Mileena's clone resurrection mean Sisi Stringer's fan-favorite femme fatale can return in Mortal Kombat 2, but there's also a tantalizing opportunity to renew her heated rivalry with Sonya Blade. Shang Tsung could mop up what remains of Milenna, toss it into the flesh pit, and recreate his subordinate with minimal fuss. As the most loyal of Tsung's followers, Mileena could certainly have been a clone in Mortal Kombat, and when Sonya Blade kills her, approximately 70% of her corpse is left behind on the floor. Mileena is the result - a cross-species clone of Kitana bred to show unwavering loyalty to Shao Kahn, and one day replace her "sister" at his side.Īlthough Kitana and Shao Kahn are conspicuous by their absence in the Mortal Kombat movie, Mileena's clone origin could still be adapted in the sequel. Afraid Kitana might learn the truth and betray him, Kahn instructs Shang Tsung to engineer a clone of the princess in his easy-bake genetic oven, the mysterious flesh pit.

Shao Kahn, the Emperor of the Outworld, kills the king of Edenia and adopts his daughter, Princess Kitana, as his loyal ninja assassin. In Mortal Kombat video game lore, Mileena is the cloned creation of Shang Tsung's flesh pits.

Missing the majority of her guts, Mortal Kombat seemingly writes Mileena out of a potential sequel. When the Earthrealm fighters chase after their evil counterparts, Mileena fights Cole, but gets a hole blasted through her torso by the returning Blade, now packing an arcana power and champion seal of her own. Wielding her trademark sai, Mileena confronts Sonya Blade and easily gets the better of her opponent, but walks away after realizing Sonya isn't a true champion. The right-hand woman of Shang Tsung, Mileena is Outworld's earliest recruit, sent to do battle against Raiden's hapless crop of trainees in Mortal Kombat's second act. One character who seemingly won't be returning in Mortal Kombat 2 is Sisi Stringer's Mileena.
