Street Fighter will be hitting the silver screen, as Sony has confirmed that a live action movie adaptation of the video game will be released in 2026. The project has been in the works since 2023, but has suffered setbacks, which included the film's two directors departing from the production. Sony and Capcom are co-producing the movie, together with movie studio Legendary Pictures. Street Fighter is no newcomer to live action films, with 1994's Street Fighter, which despite its negative reception, was a box office success. Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li was a 2009 film that served as a prequel to Street Fighter IV, but was critically lambasted. The new Street Fighter movie will hit theaters on March 20, 2026.

I'd want them to go intentionally campy for something like this, but unintentionally campy would also be acceptable.

Uncharted was a pretty shitty movie so I guess they're trying their luck with SF. Don't mess that up, too.

 

[The Catboy]

For why though?

 

[Quore]

Should I be hyped?
I don't know if it's just me but i really don't know a damn thing about this new movie

(and I'm kinda lazy to go search for it)

I want naked Cammy.

already been done

Chris Pratt as Ryu. He so cool.

I want naked Cammy.

Google images exist, that should be good enough for you.

most of the time it's both a quick buck and Hollywood just out of ideas.

Also, just the new generation needs to be exposed to what their parents enjoyed. In 15 years, when everyone has forgotten about this movie, there will be a “new” one. Should be another Mario movie in about 15 years now. Mark my words!

there's more than images

 

[Faust03]

No more of this.

It'd be funny if Manon's in the movie and they got JCVD to play her dad or trainer.

Make's sense, Capcom apparently makes a bunch of money off of the rights of the old live action movie because it became a cult classic.

 

[urbanman2004]

Exactly what nobody asked for . Capcom should just stick to making video games FFS

 

[SylverReZ]

This movie is going to be a box office flop, just like the previous animated movies that nobody cares about.

The best Street Fighter movie so far was the 'fanfilm' from a decade ago - If an official movie can come even remotely close to Assassins Fist I'll be impressed.

This was definitely the best one.

 

[Bladexdsl]

just let it die sony

 

[poughstings]

Chris Pratt as Ryu. He so cool.

He wouldn't be terrible as Luke.

 

[Fugelmir]

The first one was fantastic. This is not necessary.

 

[Vorde]

Who cares? What's with the obsession to make movies from games? And live action no less. Great, better spend the budget on high profile actors, and stupid looking CG instead of even a half baked storyline.
Anyway, Street Fighter II Animated Movie is the only movie in the francise worth watching imho

 

[LoggerMan]

Wonder if Kylie is too old to play Cammy again...
