WOW Kelly Hu looks nothing like Chun-Li!
That being said, the actor does not actually have to be the race they're playing as long as they look the part. Both Ryu and Chun-Li look mixed at least. We need some no namers to get on board here.

im just gonna go ahead and throw this out there....

this move is gonna suck.

from empireonline.com

What does it say about us that we're a little sad to know that Jean Claude Van Damme turned down a role in Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li? The '80s action hero revealed to MTV that he was offered the chance to appear in the new movie (presumably reprising his role as Guile), in an interview that made us feel a little sad for the Muscles From Brussels.

"They called me for that movie, to do the sequel," he said. "I would have been well paid but I didn't want to do it. I've made enough money. I don't want to make a movie and then come home and be unhappy about it. Life is short. I'm 47 years old. I've got 10 years to go where I can be the best I can be. I want those 10 years to be precious, not like before, cranking two or three movies a year. I've made a ton of movies in my life, but so what? It's time for me to do things I like so I will be happy, my wife will be happy, my friends will be happy. I just want to do something I'm proud of."

Street Fighter: The Movie was, of course, pustalant bilge. But there's something strange inside us that wishes he'd said yes. Is it because the movie was so bad that we've grown to love it a little bit, as long as we never actually have to sit through it again? Is it that it just seems too long since we've seen Van Damme near a big screen doing anything? Might it be that we're still a tad exhausted from the weekend and not thinking properly? Is it that instead of Van Damme in the new movie, we're getting Chris Klein?...Yep, we think it's the last one.

i'm not sure how i feel about this. i mean... i pretty much grew up watching the "Dammeage" in action. i guess most of the movies he does just have shit scripts. ah well.

SHIFT_*grind* · 03-06-2008, 11:28 AM

I don't see this movie doing well at all. Kristin Kreuk as Chun Li?

Dousan_PG · 03-06-2008, 11:48 AM

bomb!

8 years too late

origin_s135 · 03-06-2008, 12:14 PM

no offense, but most celebs without make up looks like ugh

jackjack · 03-06-2008, 12:22 PM

^exactly. just ordinary people like everyone else.

SHIFT_*grind* · 03-06-2008, 12:36 PM

Kim Kardashian with no makeup? Like WHATTHEFUCK. Not even the same person.

jackjack · 03-24-2008, 07:15 PM

so Neal Mcdonough has been cast as Bison according to wired.com

Bobafreak · 03-25-2008, 11:10 AM

i will still watch it no matter how corny really. Its entertainment to me.

jackjack · 03-25-2008, 11:19 AM

^yeah actually the casting is pretty decent so far. i'll be there.

worangejuice · 06-15-2008, 05:48 PM

chun li movie blog
here's an official page for the new movie as well as a cast of characters. Sounds pretty good. I don't know about the directors track record though. We shall see I guess.

I dont think any of those movies should be considered accomplished. I like street fighter but as brought out there really is no story behind it. This movie will end up just like DOA the movie. No thanks, ill save my $10.

DUFFM4N · 06-15-2008, 06:49 PM

*sigh* if only Raul Julia was still alive to reclaim his role as M. Bison

RIP

Kreuk is the definition of miscast since Jessica Alba as Invisible Woman and Halle Barry as Storm. In other words she's just cheap eye candy (can't act to save her life either). I hope she really beefs up because as far as I can see, she's just a bag of bones and won't live up to the Chun Li muscle and thighs. Haha.

It's also sad that Andrzej Bartkowiak's best film is Exit Wounds, and all this other movies could had been 10x better than they were.

-glenn

totally agreed, the cast doesn't seem too promising and the premise has been a disaster for film adaptation. i see this going straight to video. sf can work as anime, but thats about it.

irax · 06-16-2008, 12:44 AM

what happend to that.. uhh... dead or alive movie? ohh straight to dvd...

yeah it will happen to this one too.

HyperTek · 06-16-2008, 01:11 PM

hollywood did a decent job making movies out of transformers, ironman.. etc..

but street fighter has always been a japanese produced game.. If they have everyone speaking clear english =(

My idea of chun li, michelle yun.. shes not eye candy but she could kick ass.. but im sure shes old as dirt now lol

Jackie Chan's take on street fighter lmao

Isn't Vega supposed to be a good lookin ladies man or something? Dude looks weird as fuck

Kelly Hu I can understand, but Kreuk doesn't even look remotely Chinese.
Hollywood needs to take advantage of more hot Asian actresses!

Zhang Zhiyi would be my first choice personally, given her experience with martial arts films and her (appealing to me) northern Chinese looks, but its probably not as marketable in NA as Kruek.

*DALAZ_68* · 07-28-2008, 02:42 PM

what about David hayter as Bison...he just needs to bulk up a bit...lol

and the wrestler guy from Legend would make an awsome Sagat...i hate that in the LAM they made him some small old asian guy...FAIL...
