“Coober Pedy in the South Australian desert was a totally out of this world filming location like nothing I’ve seen on Earth – it was like we really were on Mars! I now know why so many films and TV shows have chosen to shoot in South Australia; it truly is a beautiful and unique part of the world.”
— William Shatner, Stars on Mars
“Shooting Mortal Kombat in South Australia made for an ideal filmmaking experience. The diversity of locations we were able to find – from the deserts, to the lush forests, to urban streetscapes – was perfectly suited for our production.”
— James Wan, producer, Mortal Kombat
