Cast a Tekken Movie

[Lobo]

Well who would you cast? What would be your story? We're getting a Legend of Chun Li Street Fighter flick so would anyone be surprised if Tekken got adapted to a live action film? Which characters would you use?

Can't wait to read some ideas

Tekken IS actually getting a live action film in 2009 and the cast is as follows.
Cary-Hiroyki Tagawa -Heihachi Mishima
Luke Goss -Steve Fox

Guess i should have paid attention then

What the hell, cast who you'd rather see

 

[Lobo]

I LOVE the Kazuya and Nina choices. Looking through the others as well. thanks for the info man

 

[psycho]

No problem. I'm really glad they put Brian in there, he and Kazuya are my favorite characters from the games. I just hope this movie turns out good.

 

[Iron_Stark]

No King? That sucks.

 

[Mr. Credible]

i remember something about them casting king when news of this movie first came out.

i can't remember who it was, though.

Psycho beat you to it

 

[DorkyFresh]

oh yeah...dur. sorry, mondays....

 

[Red Mask]

Man, I can't believe they cast a white girl to play Christie. I'm sure she's a good enough actress, and athletic. But c'mon!

 

[PyroChamber]

No Yoshimitsu either? I hope this won't be like Street Fighter where they have alot of characters with nothing to do.

 

[The Top Hat]

Yoshimitsu IS in the movie. I can't remember who plays him, all I can remember is that he is a primarily a stuntman.

[Congo Jack]

Favourite characters are Law, Kazuya and King. Nina gets honourable mention since she's Irish .

Ian Anthony Dale looks to be a great choice as Kazuya. No King is weak - a Mexican wrestler with a mask could have pulled it off easily.

 

[tyler-durden]

I haven't seen Paul Phoenix cast, I don't even think he's in the movie, if so I would cast Scott Caan

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

No Paul Pheonix or Hwoarang, thats a crime especially Hwoarang, one of my favourites.

BUT Kazuya and Jin were always my favourites so glad to see them in there!Glad to see Luke Goss in a role as well, but why cant i remember Steve Fox from the game?

 

[Lobo]

Nina was always my favorite character from the game. Glad she's in.

 

[Showtime]

Bryan Fury was the character I used the most.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

^He was awesome also.

But lets all face it peeps, this will suck.

 

[American_Hobo]

^He was awesome also.

But lets all face it peeps, this will suck.

With no doubt.
