Street Fighter Movie’s Crazy Full Cast List Revealed, Releases Next Year

by

The highly acclaimed Street Fighter film by Legendary is currently being actively produced, slated for release on the 16th of October, 2026.

The upcoming movie marks the beginning of a three-year partnership between the filmmaker and Paramount. It’s slated to take place during the year 1993, coinciding with the period when the iconic Street Fighter 2 game was reigning supreme in arcades.

As we’ve been reporting for a while, the cast list is crazy, so here’s the final line-up:

  • Andrew Koji as Ryu
  • Noah Centineo as Ken
  • Callina Liang as Chun-Li
  • Cody Rhodes as Guile
  • Orville Peck as Vega
  • 50 Cent as Balrog
  • Jason Momoa as Blanka
  • Vidyut Jammwal as Dhalsim
  • Olivier Richters as Zangief
  • Hirooki Goto as E. Honda
  • David Dastmalchian as M. Bison
  • Roman Reigns as Akuma
  • Andrew Schulz as Dan Hibiki
  • Eric André as Don Sauvage
  • Mel Jarnson as Cammy
  • Rayna Vallandingham as Juli
  • Alexander Volkanovski as Joe

Here are some intriguing allusions: One character, Don Sauvage, is speculated to be modeled after someone seen in Balrog’s stage during Super Street Fighter 2. He has since been integrated into the game’s background as an ally of Zangief, as hinted in Street Fighter 5’s story mode.

Now, we also have a summary of the plot, hinting at the situation where Ryu and Ken are drawn into the World Warrior Tournament. In this competition, they’ll encounter not only one another but also the ghosts of their past.

Now we got a plot rundown that shows how our buddies Ryu and Ken end up battling it out in the World Warrior Tourney. Along the way, they’ll meet up with some old ghosts from their past.

It reads:

In 1993, former Street Fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) are brought back into fighting action when Chun-Li (Callina Liang) enlists them for the upcoming World Warrior Tournament. This intense tournament, filled with powerful punches, destiny, and fury, is about to commence. However, beneath this battle lies a sinister plot that compels them to confront not only each other but also their personal demons. Failure to do so could lead to dire consequences – it’s a game they cannot afford to lose!

In case you didn’t catch the previous updates, it’s worth mentioning that Kitao Sakurai, known for his work on Bad Trip, will be directing this film. This seems like a promising development to us.

It seems clear that the graphical design, reminiscent of Street Fighter 2’s famous character selection screen, suggests that the filmmakers have a good grasp of their project.

Personally, we’ve got high hopes for this.
