More Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li casting
Mar 19, 2008 // Kramez
News from Hollyweird: several more actors have been cast for the 2009 movie Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li that Capcom is producing with Hyde Park for Fox. Filming has also begun, so pop the champagne! Smallville mega-hottie Kristin Kreuk will be playing Chunster, and will be the main character in the movie. Who knew Kreuk was of Chinese descent? Plus Dutch and Canadian. She’s a veritable smörgÃ¥sbord of hotness. Umlaut! Michael Clarke Duncan from The Green Mile and Sin City will be Balrog. Look at those guns! Taboo out of Black Eyed Peas will be Vega. Hopefully, backflips are a big part his on-stage dance moves. Neal McDonough will be donning the peaked cap and flappy cape of Bison, everyone’s favorite crime lord/would-be dictator. McDonough has been in a ton of movies and TV shows you’ve seen, including Band of Brothers and Minority Report . Chris Klein’s role as Charlie Nash was announced a few weeks back. His on screen name is cool, as it actually incorporates the two different names this character is known by. For some reason that even I can’t remember (and I’m old and know lots of odd Capcom secrets and weirdnesses), the character of “Nash” in Japan became “Charlie” in the US. Justin Marks , the screen writer cleverly slammed both names together — an idea borrowed from the comics, evidently — which should make people happy regardless of country of origin.
