Street Fighter hits theaters October 16. Eleven days out.
Set in 1993, estranged fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) get pulled back in when Chun-Li (Callina Liang) recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament.
Behind the bracket is a conspiracy that puts them against each other and their own past. Hadoukens are in the trailer.
If they lose, it’s game over.
Paramount and Legendary, co-produced with Capcom.
Directed by Kitao Sakurai, co-written with T.J. Fixman. PG-13, 2 hours 5 minutes, wide release the same day in the US and Japan.
The roster is the hype:
Cody Rhodes as Guile,
Jason Momoa as Blanka,
Roman Reigns as Akuma,
David Dastmalchian as M. Bison,
50 Cent as Balrog,
Orville Peck as Vega,
Olivier Richters as Zangief,

Reviews are not up yet. This is still pure pre-release noise.
