One of the first decisions he made David Ellison as was done with the reins of primordial (deleting your unsuccessful purchase attempt Warner) had to hastily confirm a new film Street fighter. THE major had an agreement with Capcom and had wanted for some time to put together an adaptation that they were at one point about to make Danny and Michael Phillippou (precisely, the directors of talk to me). It didn’t work, but the project still managed to recover.
So the film will move forward with the unknown Kitao Sakurai in front. Sakurai has made things like the highly recommended comedy Bad trip of Eric Andréand this American actor turns out to have a role in the Street fighter definitive. At the recent gala of Game rewards The trailer for this new film was shown for the first time, being one of the highlights of the evening as it boasted great fidelity to the original Capcom games.
This loyalty has not been common in the license’s operations, since we all know well the crazy production he has led. Jean-Claude Van Damme in the 90s. Street Fighter, the last battle became a cult classic, but as more or less happened back then with the first film Super Mario Bros.., it’s going to be “corrected” in this new Hollywood which pays so much attention to IP.
So the new Street fighter features a large cast dressed in ridiculous outfits: here they are Andrew Koji like Ryu, Noah Centineo like Ken Masters and Callina Liang like Chun-Li in the main trio, while apart from André (Don Sauvage), they are surrounded 50 cents (Balrog), David Dastmalchian (like M. Bison, a famous character played by Raul Julia In The last Stand), Cody Rhodes (like Gile, Van Damme’s character) and even Jason Momoa Like Blanka.
The first teasing simply presents them, although it is accompanied by the generic synopsis of the moment: “Street fighters Ryu and Ken Masters are forced to return to battle when the mysterious Chun-Li recruits them for the next fight. World Fighters Tournament. But behind this battle royale lies a deadly conspiracy that forces them to confront each other and the demons of their past. And if they don’t, ¡game over!“.
Street fighter will be released in theaters on October 16, 2026.
