GameFragger’s January 11, 2024 report described the image as the first behind-the-scenes glimpse of Gabrielle as Jade. It said the wider photo batch also included the film’s title logo, Kitana’s fan and Shao Kahn’s hammer. The report linked to Garner’s social posts dated January 8, 9 and 11.

In a May 15, 2026 interview with TheWrap, Gabrielle said she played Jade growing up and that Jade was the character who looked like her. She also described martial-arts preparation for the role, including work with a bo staff and learning a Chinese style. “I trained my whole life for this, particularly with the Bo staff. Though, I did have to learn a Chinese style for this, where previously I was familiar with Japanese, so that was quite the learning curve,” she said.
