Thenew Street Fighter movie has been in the works since April 2023, when it was first announced. However, not much has been released about it since then aside from the news thatTalk to Mehelmers Michael and Danny Philippou are on board to direct.
Speaking in July last year, the pair toldInside Total Film podcastthat it was “early days” in development, but it’s been a satisfying process.Danny said: “There’s not a whole established world in film, we don’t have to fit into this section and do this and that.”
“Game-to-film is very difficult but it’s exciting to us because we love the game so much,” Michael added. “We’ve been diving into the roots of that and where it comes from, and the things that inspired Street Fighter. We’re excited to do that, like on a big scale.”
There’s a fair amount to draw from with the franchise of Street Fighter games, which were first released in 1987 and were hugely influential in the growth of one-on-one fighting games. Attempts have been made to bring it to the big screen in the past, including the 1994 Jean-Claude Van Damme-led adaptation, but the series hasn’t inspired a live-action franchise yet.
