Street Fighter Movie Hits in February

14
Capcom today confirmed that Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li, the forthcoming feature film adaptation based on its acclaimed fighting series, will see a release in February 2009.

"Following the launch of the arcade video game Street Fighter IV in Summer 2009, its Hollywood movie version Street Fighter is set to be released worldwide in February 2009," reads a portion of the company's Annual Report 2008.

The February release puts the movie in close proximity to the home versions of Street Fighter IV, which are slated to hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 by March 31, 2009.

Starring Kristin Kreuk, Michael Clark Duncan, Neal McDonough and more, the Chun Li-focused flick, which does not include Street Fighter regulars Ken or Ryu, was written by Justin Marks and helemed by Doom film director Andrzej Bartkowiak.

Chris Faylor was previously a games journalist creating content at Shacknews.

    I'm a pretty big Street Fighter fan, but I have zero interest in this film.
