2026 Live-Action 'Street Fighter' Film Features Iconic Characters with Mixed Reviews
The 2026 live-action 'Street Fighter' film adapts Capcom's iconic video game, featuring fighters like Ryu (Andrew Koji), Ken Masters (Noah Centineo), Chun-Li (Callina Liang), and villain M. Bison (David Dastmalchian). Set in 1993, it follows estranged friends Ryu and Ken as they join a World Warrior Tournament amid a larger conspiracy. While the film captures the game's action and characters, reviews note its storytelling and character development are underdeveloped, focusing more on spectacle than narrative depth.
