STREET FIGHTER: Legendary Courts RackaRacka For The Live-Action Adaptation
THR’s Borys Kit is reporting that Aussie sibling film duo Danny and Michael Philippou are in final talks to direct an upcoming live-action adaptation of Street Fighter. The news comes following the acquisition of exclusive TV and film rights earlier this month from Capcom to Legendary Entertainment. The Philippou brothers are best known as the faces of the RackaRacka YouTube channel, creating spectacular and often explosive stunt action and comedy videos online. Their latest feature film effort, supernatural thriller Talk To Me arrives this summer from A24. Details are pending on their approach to the new Street Fighter film. As Kit notes in his report, however, “if they are being hired off the strength of their breakout, tension and gore may be on the agenda.” Interesting. The Philippous are now the latest in line of helmers to direct their own adaptation of the hit tournament fighting game property which launched […]
STREET FIGHTER: Legendary, Capcom Partner For New Feature Adaptation Of Hit Fighting Game
Trade news sources all reported on Monday that a new Street Fighter film is now in development. Via The Wrap, “exclusive license” has gone to Legendary Entertainment who are shepherding the film with Capcom.

Apart from the original video animations that emerged, live-action adaptations were made and released in 1994 by director Steven E. de Souza (Universal Pictures’ Street Fighter), and in 2009 by Andrzej Bartkowiak (20th Century Fox’s Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li), and then in 2016 by actor and filmmaker Joey Ansah (Machinima’s Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist). I’ll leave you my thoughts on the latter installment in the Instagram embed below, but […]

STREET FIGHTER: ASSASSIN'S FIST Gets Closer To A Trailer
It has taken several years (decades, even!) to formulate a seemingly ambitious and appropriate vision of Capcom’s Street Fighter to happen in a live-action format, and as we grow closer to the release of that very conception in the form of director Joey Ansah‘s newest labor of love, Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist, updates on the official Facebook page have been rare as of late. This week, however, fans were treated with another full glimpse of actor, co-writer/creator and fight choreographer Christian Howard in the role of Ken Masters, which you can view above. In addition to this, the official page has updated its followers with an official stated ‘thank you’ from its producer, Jacqueline Quella and co-producer Mark Wooding, in addition to a hint at a trailer date.

On Wednesday, the official Facebook page for Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist shared two distinct images of actor Joey Ansah portraying the role of Akuma in the upcoming multi-platform episodic movie. Take a look: (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = “//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1”; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’)); Post by Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist. If you have seen the 2010 shortfilm, Street Fighter: Legacy by now, you are already familiarized with an idea of how Ansah is approaching the iconic character here in these images, as well as others featuring actor Gaku Space, who plays Akuma’s pre-transformational human character, Goki. But more importantly, for a theatrical feature length treatment, Ansah is promising something way more epic in nature than previously seen. And with the reports already in from those who have had an exclusive look, Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist […]
