The news  comes  via confirmation from the actress herself that she will reprise  the role she played in the trailer to which we were first  exposed last  summer. Speculation had the footage as a leaked trailer for the  long-reported  reboot film for the Mortal Kombat franchise, but it turned  out to be  concept footage used to persuade Warner Bros to go the ultra-violent   route. Continuing on from last summer&#8217;s trailer, it was reported last  month to officially become a 10 episode web series, which will be   directed by Kevin Tancharoen, helmer of the original clip.<\/p>\n<p>As the former Borg vixen, Ryan tweets:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Heading  to the  farmer&#8217;s market with the hubs &amp; my girl.
