Andrew Koji ("Bullet Train", "Boy Kills World"), Jason Momoa ("A Minecraft Movie"), Noah Centineo ("Warfare", "The Recruit") and pro wrestler Roman Reigns ("Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw") are in talks to star in Legendary's live-action "Street Fighter". The film, which is based on the Capcom fighting video games, will be directed by Kitao Sakurai ("Bad Trip"). Previously, Danny & Michael Philippou ("Talk to Me") were attached to the project in 2023, following Legendary's acquisition of exclusive film and TV rights to the "Street Fighter" IP.
The plot of the film is currently under wraps. The film adaptation is being co-developed and co-produced alongside Capcom, the developer and publisher of the video games. Launched in 1987, the "Street Fighter" franchise revolves around intense one-on-one battles between a diverse cast of martial artists. The games often center around a global fighting tournament organized by M. Bison, the leader of the evil organization Shadaloo. Street Fighter has sold over 55 million units worldwide since launch, making it one of the most well-known and highest-grossing video game franchises of all time.
Koji will next be seen starring in the Tubi Original "Worth the Wait" and the Prime Video heist series "Haven".
Momoa will next be seen starring in Apple's historical epic miniseries "Chief of War", the action comedy "The Wrecking Crew" opposite Dave Bautista, and Legendary's live action/animated road trip adventure "Animal Friends". He will also appear in "Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow", in which he plays Lobo, and the sci-fi series "Dune: Messiah", where he reprises his role as Duncan Idaho.
