Monday’s IFC Center screening of director Joey Ansah’s breakout live-action martial arts gaming adaptation, Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist, was cancelled, according to the official website. The feature-length multiplatform webseries/movie from Assassins’ Fist Limited will now be held on Thursday, January 1, 2015, with Ansah expected to be in attendance.
One of the most recognized video game franchises in the world, STREET FIGHTER: ASSASSIN’S FIST tells the origin story of some of the series’ most beloved characters: Ryu, Ken, and Akuma. Delivering top-notch, martial arts action with visual effects that rival major Hollywood studios, this will be a must-see for Street Fighter and action cinema fans, alike.
Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist also stars Ansah with Mike Moh, Christian Howard, Akira Koieyama, Togo Igawa, Shogen, Gaku Space and Hyunri. The DVD and Blu-Ray are also on track to release in multiple territories around the world between now and later this year, with a second season, Street Fighter: The World Warrior, now in development.
