History Trivia / MortalKombatDefendersOfTheRealm

* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/ClancyBrown, normally a villain actor, playing a "good guy" in Raiden. It's one of only several of these types of roles he's done, with Captain Black from ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' [[note]](also Super Moose in the same series; this show also features a ShockAndAwe character who is a villain this time, Tchang Zu the Thunder Demon, whose voice sounds like Clancy Brown's voice for [[VideoGame/CrashBandicoot3Warped Uka Uka somewhat]]; The Other Wiki credited the role to Creator/FrankWelker, but his name never showed up in the two episodes where Tchang Zu spoke) [[/note]], Sergeant Zim in ''Film/StarshipTroopers'' [[note]] This film's franchise tapped Romano for its animated adaptation ironically; also ironically, the lead actor from the film, Creator/CasperVanDien, became Johnny Cage in the second season of ''WebVideo/MortalKombatLegacy'' in 2013 [[/note]], a doctor in ''Film/CowboysAndAliens'' and Lt. Hank Anderson in ''VideoGame/DetroitBecomeHuman'' being some of the few other good examples. A particularly ironic case, as he's playing Raiden, who was played by Creator/ChristopherLambert in the film - i.e. an actor Brown [[Film/{{Highlander}} famously antagonized.]]

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: An episode featuring Shinnok was proposed, which like Quan Chi would make him appear in the animated series before being revealed in VideoGame/MortalKombatMythologiesSubZero.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: As with all the [[WesternAnimation/StreetFighter other]] [[ComicBook/TheSavageDragon original]] [[WesternAnimation/WingCommanderAcademy cartoons]] part of the ''Action Extreme Team'', got screwed over when Creator/USANetwork decided to scrap their cartoon lineup, citing their lack of flow into the other shows they were airing at the time.
