Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li Will Be Better Than Original One
Steven E. de Souza, the writer/director of the original “Street Fighter” has been talking to MTV about the the forthcoming “Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li“. Surprisingly, he thinks it will probably be better than the one he made.
About the Andrzej Bartkowiak(“Romeo Must Die,” “Exit Wounds,” “Cradle 2 the Grave” and “Doom”) -directed movie, he praised:
“I heard that it’s the story of just Chun-Li… That has to make for a better picture.”
“When we were making the original one, they insisted that all of the characters be in the movie,” de Souza remembered with a sigh. “And if you do the math, that gives you about 7 minutes per character if you split it up equally… And then [Jean-Claude] Van Damme was cast. But he still wasn’t in the whole movie, because it was so overpopulated!”
Based on the popular video game franchise, this reboot will focus on female fighter Chun Li, as she embarks on a quest for justice by taking on various characters from the game, including Vega, M. Bison (Neal McDonough), and Balrog (Michael Clarke Duncan).
“Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li” stars Kristin Kreuk, Michael Clarke Duncan, Neal McDonough, Taboo, Chris Klein, Moon Bloodgood, Edmund Chen, Cheng Pei Pei, Josie Ho and Robin Shou. The film will hit theaters Feb. 27, 2009.
