Street Fighter, the latest live-action take on Capcom's iconic fighting game, unveils a new trailer. Directed by Kitao Sakurai, the film features Andrew Koji, Noah Centineo and Callina Liang as Ryu, Ken Masters and Chun-Li. Its release in French theaters is set for October 14, 2026.
The plot unfolds in 1993. Once inseparable, Ryu and Ken have gone their separate ways after being recruited by the enigmatic Chun-Li to enter the World Warrior Tournament. Behind this international spectacle lies a conspiracy that forces the two fighters to confront their opponents, their pasts, and, ultimately, each other.
Paramount Pictures and Legendary are also rolling out an interactive version of the trailer, playable directly on YouTube. A first clip from the film also shows a fight between Ryu and Blanka, portrayed by Jason Momoa.
The ensemble brings together names from cinema, wrestling, martial arts, and music. Joe “Roman Reigns” Anoa’i plays Akuma, David Dastmalchian stars as M. Bison, Cody Rhodes as Guile, Vidyut Jammwal as Dhalsim, and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson as Balrog. Jason Momoa, who also serves as a producer on the film, lends his visage to Blanka.
Orville Peck rounds out the cast in the role of Vega, alongside Olivier Richters as Zangief, Hirooki Goto as E. Honda, Mel Jarnson as Cammy, Andrew Schulz as Dan Hibiki, Rayna Vallandingham as Juli, Alexander Volkanovski as Joe, Kyle Mooney as Marvin, and Eric André as Don Sauvage.
Unveiled at the Game Awards 2025, the project is produced by Legendary Pictures in partnership with Capcom. The screenplay is by Dalan Musson, and the film is crafted for an IMAX release. This new adaptation arrives nearly forty years after the franchise first hit arcades in 1987, ahead of the global success of Street Fighter II beginning in 1991.
