Action-Adventure Legendary/Capcom developing Street Fighter film

[Pennywise]

Great casting on both, if true. Koji was amazing on Warrior and Centineo was great on The Recruit. Never heard of Nexus Point News though so I don’t know if this is reliable at all.

They’re pretty reliable and they have gotten lots of scoops right from the ones I have seen!

Good news then! Hopefully this one turns out to be true, especially Koji.

Just noticed the article mentions the writer for the film.

Street Fighter is set to be directed by Kitao Sakurai (Bad Trip) and the latest draft was written by Dalan Musson (Captain America: Brave New World).

Just noticed the article mentions the writer for the film.

Hmm, not the best track record, though I did like TFATWS, its behind-the-scenes production issues and messy politics aside, but I contribute that a lot to Covid and the showrunner.

Maybe this is the kind of project he needs to show what he can do.

I would agree with that, I thought Brave New World was a mixed bag and a bit of a mess, but that movie had five other writers too,

I did like the fifth episode of FATWS he worked on.

One of the writers from Brave New World writing this?

First Mortal Kombat, now Street Fighter’s reboot…


Elizabeth I’m coming to join ya honey!

 

[Pennywise]

Also thought that Ryu and Ken would have been around the same age or pretty close at least. There’s a nine year gap between Koji and Centineo

Not bothered by it, just something I noticed. All that should matter is if they have chemistry.

I saw some comments on Reddit say that Ken is supposed to be 3/4 Japanese in canon, which I didn’t know until today.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Ken's mom is Japanese and his dad is a rich white American (or atleast that was the case in Street Fighter II V).

I just hope they get a really good fight cheotographer for the film!

Mortal Kombat 2021’s weren’t great aside from the Scorpion and Sub Zero fights.

Also bit worried about the writer too.

 

[Stringer]

I'm a fan of Koji, but I have no idea where they're going with this if this is supposed to be Ryu and Ken. Looks like trouble ahead.

EXCLUSIVE: Andrew Koji and Noah Centineo Are In Talks To Join ‘Street Fighter’

Legendary Pictures’ Street Fighter is circling its first cast members. Andrew Koji and Noah Centineo are in talks to join the film as Ryu and Ken, respectively.

Please be true! I LOVED Koji on Warrior!!!!!

That show still deserves to get a fourth and final season.

Casting Ryu and Ken first at least makes more sense than an entire film about Chun-Li of all characters.

I miss Warrior a lot! Great show with some of the best fights on television!

For sure! That third season when it moved to HBO Max really upped the ante with the fight choreography! Hadn't seen that level of fighting since maybe Into the Badlands.

Wait… is there really a game called Street Fighter Two-Five?

Honestly with how many versions of SF2, that wouldn’t surprise me but did they really call it that? lol

LOL, nah they're not that far gone yet.

Street Fighter 2 V (V is for victory I think) was an anime series they did in the 90s. It was really good.

Oh okay lol. Thanks for the clarification.

Watched II V not too long ago, I really enjoyed it! Was cool to see different takes on each character, and the fights were awesome! Also liked that most of the voice cast from the animated movie reprised their roles.

Bison wearing Blue instead of red was weird, though.

 

[Pennywise]

I wonder if Akuma will be the villain as previously rumoured.

DanielRPK did get the scoop about Kitao Sakurai right.

Andrew Koji, Jason Momoa, Noah Centineo & Roman Reigns In Talks For Legendary’s ‘Street Fighter’

Legendary's 'Street Fighter' movie has Andrew Koji, Jason Momoa, Noah Centineo & Roman Reigns in talks to star, sources tell Deadline.

t.co

Sensing another Mortal Kombat 2020 debacle incoming

 

[Pennywise]

Hmm..

 

[OrbOfConfusion]

I'm curious who will be cast as Vega. Taboo as Vega in Legend of Chun-Li...the less said, the better. Jay Tavare in the 1994 movie? Sure, he wasn't blonde, but he was one of the most spot-on, at least as far as appearance.

 

[Pennywise]

Iffy on Reigns as Akuma.

They should have cast a Japanese actor.
