Yeah, I noticed that his account was gone right around the time the fan test screening was announced. There are some ravenous fans out there, and it sucks to see all of the insults and harassment he was getting, especially since he was one of the only sources of communication to the fans about this movie. I get that people are mad about lack of info, but that wasn't Todd's fault. He was only allowed to reveal what the studio allowed him to.
I do wonder if it had something to do with the fan screening. He was commenting on people's profiles who were talking about sharing info from it, saying he wished they would not do that. His comments are the reason I even found out there was a screening. Maybe he realized that he gave the screening more exposure and deleted it to prevent stuff like that from happening again.
But that's just speculation. Either way, people shouldn't be mean, it just makes the entire fanbase look bad and it's wrong even if it didn't.
As for the new actors, I doubt it's for anything big. Maybe a teaser for Johnny or Kitana, i.e. in a quick after credits scene.
