Rather substantial evidence exists that Ash Williams from the Evil Dead/Army of Darkness franchise was supposed to be a DLC character for MK11. First, his name and some dialogue was sussed out when the Switch version of the game was datamined, which also included references to other characters that were actually released. Then, a teaser trailer for upcoming DLC had a chainsaw sound and a copyright notice. After that, a WB Games marketing email stated he would be arriving. All the while, Ash's usual actor Bruce Campbell flip-flopped (potentially unintentionally) on whether he was voicing in the title. Raiden/Joker's voice actor Richard Epcar once stated in an interview that Ash was going to be in, although he may have just heard the statements based on the evidence and assumed them true. Ultimately, Ash didn't make it in, and Ed Boon hasn't stated definitively what happened, but licensing rights is the best guess most have made.
