Tati Gabrielle

thumb Tatiana Gabrielle Hobson (born January 25, 1996), known professionally as Tati Gabrielle, is an American actress. Quotes I was a fan of the video game. I played as a kid. I grew up in an older household. My mom was almost 40 when she had me. … We were just raised with a different generation’s sensibilities and pop culture. So Mortal Kombat was definitely big in my house. My sister was ecstatic when I booked Mortal Kombat! And Jade was my favorite character because she was the only character, before Tanya came in later, that I saw that looked like me. And I did martial arts as a kid. So I was like, “This is so cool! I can really do things.” I also strained my shoulder at one point because … there’s a certain glowy bow in the course of the film that is very heavy and is not the normal weight that somebody working with a bow or competing with a bow is used to using. So the muscles in my shoulder were not used to doing these movements with a very heavy bow; strained my shoulder. I’m OK now. But I was like, “I got battle scars.” Probably my favorite part of my experience on this film was working with Addy. We had played sisters once before on the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and so we were both super excited to do this again. I was so excited that I spoiled her casting. She found out from me instead of her agents because I was too excited, and I called her immediately. It’s extremely important to me because, especially as I’ve gotten older and lived through my own experience being mixed race, lived through my own experience being a person of color, there are very particular things to that experience that people need to understand and I don’t think that they’ll be able to understand through just a conversation with somebody. You have to see it to understand. So not only for the purposes of little boys and girls and theys and thems that look like me, to be able to see themselves and feel represented, but as well as for all of those who don’t understand people that look like me, being able to have a tangible reference. Tati Gabrielle Brought Her Childhood Favorite Video Game Character to Life in ‘Mortal Kombat II’;By CARLY THOMAS on May 8, 2026 It was a good introduction to what a film set is like, but I wanted to challenge myself to tell stories that were impactful on all levels, In the first couple of years [of acting], nobody knew where to place me. I wasn’t Black enough to be Black. I wasn’t Asian enough to be Asian I told Sera that since I’m going to be Joe’s new obsession, and all of the women before me have been white, there are certain things that, as a woman of color, are not going to go the same way I can never let something like that happen again. I can’t let my people down Black women have been forced to grow up in a world where we have to be aware at all times. We think differently. We have to protect ourselves differently.
