Katheryn Winnick is great. Katee Sackhoff would also be fantastic, as would Tricia Helfer, who was already a great Sonya and should still be voicing her in MK11. And Terry Crews seems like he was born to play Jax. He's huge and a pretty damn good actor. Mechad Brooks should be fine, I think. He was one of the better actors on that Supergirl show.
