Roman Reigns as Akuma
Jason Momoa has been as Blanka
Andrew Koji as Ryu
Noah Centineo as Ken
Street Fighter movie cast announced
Roman Reigns has been trying to break into Hollywood for like a decade now. Good luck to him, I guess. But so far he doesn't seem like a John Cena or Batista level of talent.
now, Roman, give me your best "DIE ONE THOUSAND DEATHS"
and if you fail we beat you with fucking canes till you cry.
I mean as long as Ryu, Ken and Guile all have their themes play at some point I'm sold.
I think Steve Austin is a good actor and should have had more movies. Why do I get the feeling if he was brown, Hollywood would have offered him more leading roles
Chun li?
I thought the third guy there was the dwarf from Game of Thrones.
Zendaya
silly anon, it'll be another waif again instead of a women with giant muscular thighs.
you'll be lucky if she's even Chinese, remember the last movie?
Roman should have been Bison
She wasn't Chinese in that shitty 2010 movie?
I wouldn't mind seeing Asuka as Sakura if ever she gets her knee fixed and wants to do other things than her gaming channel.
youtube.com
half Indonesian, half dutch.
though she hardly looked chinese at all.
Texas rattlesnake ain't dealing with no Hollywood primadonnas,
the condemned was great.
WHAT
Gotta love the Big Dog
Seems like a waste to have Jason Momoa as Blanka, say what you say about the dude's acting, but he has charisma, why waste him in a role where he will be under tons of make up and prospetics, and won't even have lines?
Will people even recognize him?
isn't she in prison for sex trafficking a canadian cult is was that the blond?
Acknowledge him!
WHAT
O no not again
no, she wasn't involved in the seedier side of NXIVM or whatever the cult was, or so she says, and so the authorities confirm.
it was that Smallville bitch and that bitch from Battlestar Galactica that were deeply involved.
Live action definitely worked well with live action the lzst time...
STOP IT : if there's too much fantasy in the settings, just make a 2d or 3d movie please. And use Jasln Momoa, Jean Claude Van Damme or Jack Black for the voices if you really insist on the cast.
does he get his hashbrowns with cheese and jalapeno's?
Humiliation ritual
I mean streetfighter is easily dooable in live action, just Hollywood couldn't do it because they are always embarrased to be making earnest shit like a goofy martial arts tourney with an electric brazillian.
Who is Jack Black playing?
I remember in WM 40 Roman was yelling to Cody, "I'm sending you to Hollywood." Funny.
The best Street Fighter movie has already been made
It had that guy from the first Addams Family reboot in it as Bison
BEAT DEBRA
I like the idea of Akuma and Elena going on road trips together.
I. AM. DHALSIM!
they were both on smallville I think Kristin recruited her
akuma looks like the dad who's pissed at any boy who's trying to see his daughter
Ken-Sama
Roman and Momoa in the same movie is funny, since Roman is basically store-brand Jason Momoa.
Who's going to be Cammy?
Any Street Fighter movie they try to do that is anything more than do a story about Ryu & Kens friendship as they train for and compete in the world warrior tournament with Sagat being the big bad, and each other character reduced to a cameo is doomed to fail. If they just made the movie Warrior with Ryu, Ken and Gouken it would make a billion dollars
opposite way around
Idris Elba
they already had a little show exactly about that lol
en.wikipedia.org
it was about the best thing to come out of adapting Street Fighter beyond the Street Fighter 2 movie, which is obviously the best.
What would they even talk about?
So now a real production company needs to do it
oh, ok my bad
Exactly. Hollywood keeps trying to "elevate" stuff like Street Fighter instead of leaning into what makes it fun—over-the-top characters, wild powers, and campy tournament drama. Give me Guile with his corny one-liners and Bison monologuing in a cape, not some gray, gritty reinterpretation where Ryu has daddy issues and Chun-Li works for the FBI or some crap. Just commit to the energy of the games and it could work.
its because anyone who gets on these projects hates them, because they want to be making projects that impress the Old Jews and Gays who run Hollywood, and that involves shit that simply isn't fun or cool.
all of them, Neil Druckmann is the very essence of this type of director, he was so horny for it he made a game just so it could be adapted into a show so he could springboard into trying to impress the OJaG's.
there are exceptions, that guy who made Guardians of the Galaxy at least gives 10% of a shit, but even still they will never go full earnest batshit insane cool over the top or what have you.
Hollywood would never, for instance, be this sincere and heartfelt, say what you will about Kingdom Hearts, but this would never be allowed by any director with any backing
It's just gonna be more marvel type slop.
I'm sending you to Hollywood
Good banter, even if it's not honest.

Ethnically-speaking, do Reigns and Centineo actually make sense here?
no, lol Akuma is 100% Japanese, but Japanese men hardly even try to look as masculine and violent looking like that anymore.
Roman is half Samoan/Half Italian and Akuma is Japanese, so no.
Noah is Italian American and Ken is half Japanese.
Ironically, Yokozuna, Roman's cousin, did a Japanese Sumo gimmick, but he actually looked Asian.
