For Sonya, I figured either of these two would be great: 
 
 
First...
 
Why not the Martial Artist / Actress she was based on?
 
Cynthia Rothrock:
 

 
 
 
Or this blonde beauty:
 
Victoria Pratt:
 

 
 
 
Both could handle fight scenes with excellence. Cynthia's skill speaks for itself and as for Victoria.. well she's done fighting as Shalimar on Mutant X (as well as some other roles.) And both look the part I think.. so, those are my picks.

Can-not believe I didn't post her before you. Thank you so much because I have a hard time remembering her name.
While Keri Hoskins was the first character actress of Sonya, Cynthia's got to be the characters first inspiration. She's definitely "thee first Sonya Blade".
She's so awesome.

Had MK3 been made ages ago Cynthia would have been perfect. Unfortunately she's looking a bit too old nowadays. 
 
People have gotten an awful lot of Dragon Point's in this thread, including me...
 
Howcome pretty much everybody is getting them just for posting likenesses?

No prob, lol. I absolutely agree with you. The day I went searching for that pic to put in this thread, I actually watched a few vids of her fighting as well and she's truly badass.

My list has been updated with Johnny Cage, & Kai. And a few actor choices have been swapped as well, like Jax, who I initially had as Michael Jai White.


About Me
When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes sir, the check is in the mail."

Michael C Hall for Raiden. Particularly, Dark Raiden. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Not a martial artist, but he's a fantastic actor for the role of Dark Raiden. As long as they don't get all lost in the "mortal kombat jargen", and just let the guy talk normal//act the role normal, he'd be perfect.

Well hell, most of what you have I can agree with. Some of them I think are too old now though. Linden Ashby for Johnny is an example. Stacy Dash will always be in my heart but I don't think she nails it for Tanya anymore. 
 
Ones I don't agree with are your choices for Jax, and Kung Lao. Also, I got Marc Dacoscos pegged as Rain. That guy just looks like somebody's sneaky Prince. Kate for Sareena is pretty good, and Sandra Bullock for Arshra is a surprisingly good choice. Also, I got Dalip Singh pegged for Goro.
 
Good stuff though man...good stuff.

 Megan Fox will make a GREAT Jade too!!! As for Kitana or Li Mei, it'd be Kelly Hu. Jennifer Garner is good as Mileena also.
