No one will ever replace Raul Julia as M Bison.
But David Dastmalchian is a damn good choice.

Exactly. I like the 50 cent casting and am interested in seeing what Dastmalchian does with the role; but idk about some of the others. Not a fan of the Cody casting and dubious about Roman and Jason Momoa, but Hirioki Goto could be good.
The day the Street Fighter trailer graced your YouTube feed was the most important day of your life.
But for me it was Thursday.
Of course it's a SF94 meme.
I'm going to watch this movie so hard, all the sequels are going to feel it
The Dan Hibiki actor is a Trump supporter. This movie can go fuck itself.
just him? Roman Reigns is in it also.
But... why? If you're going to make a movie about a game, do one with an actual story as the focal point of the game.
There are so many games with a badass story...
Just cause studio executives are fine with being creatively bankrupt doesn't mean they wanna be financially as well.
Will it be as thirsty as the games? Is that foot fetish chick gonna be in it?
Does this mean we'll finally get the long-awaited sequel to Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game?
I hope so. That game made the rest of the stupidity of adapting a plot free game into a pointless movie worth it. Because we got a game out of it.
I just want to see Sawada's super move in glorious HD.
I dunno what I was expecting. It just looks as corny as the old one.
Worse to be honest.
Pfff it's not a street fighter movie without Van Damme
This looks like it might correctly capture the vibe of street fighter. I really really hope this one's good!
This looks hella fun
Kind of looks like it’s trying to channel Kung Fury.
Chun Li not thicc enough. At least from what it appears
Why does this look indistinguishable from Mortal Kombat, but kornier.
How dare you compare this popular almost plot free slugfest to that... Other...popular almost plot free slugfest!
Edit: Of course, I'm joking. And I am vaguely aware that both franchises have some kind of plot now.
Still, I think it's funny you got downvoted for making the obvious comparison. We either have one die hard fan in here, or someone with fat fingers meant to upvote you and misclicked.
