"Legendary Entertainment has shared the first details about the Street Fighter reboot, which will be set in 1993. Unlike the previous live-action Street Fighter movies--including Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li--the focus will fall on Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo), two fighters who have become estranged from each other. However, Chun-Li (Callina Liang) reunites the pair when she recruits them for the World Warrior Tournament. The synopsis also teases the "deadly conspiracy" behind the battle royale,"
"As part of the announcement, Legendary revealed that Street Fighter will hit theaters on October 16, 2026. It's the first film in a three-year distribution deal with Paramount Pictures. But it doesn't affect Legendary's Minecraft and Godzilla x Kong sequels, both of which remain with Warner Bros. under the terms of previously signed deals. Legendary also shared the complete cast for Street Fighter, including two current WWE wrestlers: Cody Rhodes and Joe "Roman Reigns" Anoa'i, who will portray Guile and Akuma, respectively."
