We yet person a real-deal trailer for nan upcoming Street Fighter movie, after a short teaser dropped astatine The Game Awards past year. This is astir 3 minutes of fighting, silly speech and, of course, Easter eggs from nan games.
To nan second point, there's a segment of Ken beating up a car for illustration successful nan prize stages from Street Fighter II and footage of Ryu powering up 1 of his celebrated Hadoken fireballs. There's moreover a cheeky reference to Chun-Li's notoriously-large and powerful thighs. This is each helped on by nan truth that nan actors each look very silly and mostly meticulous to nan games.
The crippled looks to beryllium reasonably modular for this type of adaptation. There's a big, important fighting tourney and Chun-Li is recruiting group from astir nan globe, acting for illustration nan franchise's Nick Fury aliases something. Ken and Ryu are beefing, M. Bison is progressive successful a criminal conspiracy (big surprise) and everyone other is punching and/or making snarky asides. It looks campy arsenic hell, which is simply a bully thing.
Street Fighter is directed by Kitao Sakurai, who made nan movie Bad Trip and was heavy progressive pinch The Eric Andre Show. It hits theaters connected October 16.
The formed is really stacked. Noah Centineo and Andrew Koji lead nan movie arsenic Ken and Ryu, but Jason Momoa is playing Blanka and Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson is portraying Balrog. Other actors progressive see David Dastmalchian, Callina Liang, Cody Rhodes and Orville Peck.
This is nan 3rd effort astatine a live-action Street Fighter adaptation. The 1994 movie is celebrated for Raul Julia's iconic capacity arsenic M. Bison and 2009's Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li is famous for being very bad.
