Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li Movie Trailer Offers Glimpse of 2009 Oscar Contender

December 29, 2008 11:42 AM

The second live-action Street Fighter adaptation is headed to theaters next year, and while Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li was shot in English, this Japanese trailer represents the first glimpse of near-finished footage.

Doom director Andrzej Bartkowiak is helming the project, with Smallville veteran Kristin Kreuk filling in the titular role. The film also stars Neal McDonough as M. Bison, Chris Klein as Charlie, Michael Clarke Duncan as Balrog, and Black Eyed Peas singer Taboo as Vega.

  It's street fighter, what more can you expect or should you expect? LOL
  
  As much as I personally loved the first movie with JCVD, can this one be any worse than that one? :D

      lol, that was even worse than I could have imagined it, not because it was so bad (although it was pretty awful), but because it looks like they actually spent a fair amount of money to make it.
