The trailer was a mile a minute, referencing while showing off its illustrious list of actors and wrestlers in full costumes, and dare we say they looked pretty decent for Hollywood cosplay of video game characters. The trailer itself was mostly a hodgepodge of action with very little hinting toward what its actual story might be, but it\u2019s really there for that at the moment. Let\u2019s watch Chun Li kick fools, Guile do his flash kick, and folks and cars alike get air-juggled.<\/p>\n<p>As far as the last Street Fighter film endeavors go, those being the Jean-Claude Van Damme one and that other one about Chun Li you likely forgot about, this film definitely leaned more heavily into embracing the camp of the games\u2019 nonstop action. Aesthetically, though, the game seems to be taking more pointers from its newest game, Street Fighter VI\u2018s more neon-drenched urban look. All the better to make Cody Rhode\u2019s Guile hair look just that much more pronounced.<\/p>\n<p>In case the rapid-fire role call of video game characters was too fast for you, here\u2019s the who\u2019s who of Street Fighter and the actors bringing them to life:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Noah Centineo as \u201cKen Masters\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Andrew Koji as \u201cRyu\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Callina Liang as \u201cChun-Li\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Joe \u201cRoman Reigns\u201d Anoa\u2019i as \u201cAkuma\u201d<\/li>\n<li>David Dastmalchian as \u201cM.

But from this first look, director Kitao Sakurai definitely left a good first impression of what\u2019s to come when the movie hits theaters in 2026.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Want more io9 news?
