Originally, the sisters Kitana and Mileena were daughters of the cruel conqueror Shao Khan, and were in an eternal rivalry for the throne of the kingdom of Edenia. Mileena, jealous of her sister for being the successor to the throne, has as her central ambition to destroy her and reign over the land of her mother Sindel. Kitana, in turn, eventually finds out about Shao Kahn’s atrocities and about her real father, King Jerrod, killed by Shao, who would adopt the twins and take Queen Sindel as his wife.

In Mortal Kombat 11, however, Liu Kang became a deity and rewrote history. Therefore, in the most recent game, Mortal Kombat 1, Kitana and Mileena are biological sisters who live in harmony under the reign of Sindel. In this timeline, the sisters fight together to defeat Shang Tsung, who tricks them into turning them against Liu Kang’s Earthly Plane after gaining his trust by treating the Tarkat disease, from which Mileena suffers.
Anitta and Marina Sena were not the first celebrities to be inspired by Mortal Kombat characters. Here in Brazil, Pabllo Vittar has already posed with a Kitana cosplay:
