The upcoming film adaptation is reportedly a co-production between Capcom and Legendary Pictures.

Hopefully they reserved a part for Pedro Pascal

M Bison

Because the last time they got a hispanic actor for the role, he nailed it

Momoa peaked with The Minecraft Movie. Seriously, he was hilarious in it.

I did not "respect his game" for sure. He was good in that.

The same way Chris Hemmsworth surprised me as "funny Thor", both are much better actors than I gave them credit.

You didn't hear? Pedro is going to play all the characters.

You know M. Bison, we really are the Street Fighter Alpha.

 

[Rush2112]

[//DEVIL//]

"sonnf a bish" -_-

How on earth did I watch and enjoy this as a kid ?

 

[ReBurn]

I already hate it.

I should watch the Sonny Chiba Street Fighter again because this made me think of that.

[Cert.in.Death]

I'll stick to my AI Generated R34 Street Fighter, thank you very much

 

[Badlucktroll]

[Punished Miku]

I really don't know if its possible to make a good Street Fighter movie. They've tried like 4x.

First GAF complains about Tom Holland and now Pedro Pascal... I'm sensing a pattern here. If the pattern is right next will be Kaitlyn Dever...

At this point, they should remove the cast and just have Pascal play all the characters.

I still say Mortal Kombat movie was not awful back in the 90's

The fight scene choreography was fantastic, excluding the phoned in Sonya.

Thought the same, and as a kid it was just COOL

Was what my kid mind expected from MK

Badass fight scenes and soundtrack

 

[poodaddy]

No idea who Roman Reigns is, but I just hope they don't fuck it up. Who would Mamoa play? I can't think of one Street Fighter character he looks like, but I could be brain farting. It all really hinges on how good the casting is for the following characters:
Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, Zangief, Guile, Bison, and Cammy.

If any of those castings are messed up, the movie will immediately and obviously be awful. Get those right and it has a chance.

Oh, and make Blanka a terrifying beast, not a fuckin goober.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Andrew Koji should be credited for Warrior, he's had amazing martial arts scenes in that show.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Momoa peaked with The Minecraft Movie. Seriously, he was hilarious in it.

He was good in this too, it was actually a good film

 

[SALMORE]

Yeah but who's going to play G ?!

 

[Toots]

Can't wait to see Paul Heyman play Gouken

 

[Badlucktroll]

chris pratt could play ken or guile and aziz ansari could play dhalsim

 

[Connificent]

 

[amigastar]

Were those Street Fighter movies actually good, or rather trash, lol?

VanDamme as Guile

Mike Tyson as Mike Bison the boxer

The rest no one cares

Ps. The SF YouTube movie is quite good.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Why?

 

[OmegaSupreme]

That anime movie is great.

 

[AJUMP23]

We already have the perfect Street Fighter movie.

 

[Donald mac Ronald]

Holy shit you can see how tired he is from those all night coke sessions he had while filming.

 

[Ulysses 31]

M Bison

Everyone goes straight for the main theme but when you hear the game-style announcer say "Reptile" (because why the fuck not) and that music hits you know you're in for a treat. I don't care what the budget is, with that track any fight scene is good
