Street Fighter has just upped its franchise. The popular video game is getting a new live-action movie and has already picked up some big-name actors. The only question is whether or not they will be able to do the video game series justice.

Big actors confirmed for live-action Street Fighter movie
Nothing beats seeing your favorite video game character come to life on the big screen. With adaptations like The Last of Us and Super Mario doing phenomenally amongst viewers, it would seem as if a live-action Street Fighter movie was only necessary.
Below is a list of the few big-name actors confirmed for the live-action Street Fighter movie:
- Jason Momoa
- David Dastmalchian
- Callina Liang
- Joe Anoa'i
- 50 Cent
Each character is playing a big name in the franchise, too. Fortunately, every casting for this film so far fits perfectly.
Jason Momoa as Blanka

Yes, Jason Momoa will be portraying the green giant. And no, not the one on the front of your green bean cans. This is a perfect casting as Momoa is ripped and tall with long hair. However, will he be able to do the famous character justice?
David Dastmalchian as M. Bison

David Dastmalchian as M. Bison is a more recent casting, but fans are all here for it. The popular antagonist will be some difficult shoes to fill, but Dastmalchian is a mastermind when it comes to playing evil characters.
Even in Suicide Squad, Dastmalchian played a perfect anti-hero, making his casting for M. Bison in the live-action Street Fighter movie perfect.

Callina Liang as Chun-Li

Callina Liang as Chun-Li is a big favorite amongst many fans waiting for the live-action Street Fighter movie. Not only is Liang an amazing actress, but she is the perfect fit for Chun-Li. Her skills in the martial arts also fit well alongside her looks, which resemble Chun-Li exquisitely.
Joe Anoa'i as Akuma

Okay, c'mon. You are telling me Joe Anoa'i is not the perfect casting for Akuma in the upcoming Street Fighter live-action film? Anoa'i, known for his role in the WWE, easily fits Akuma as he will easily be able to bring the strength and campiness to the big screen.
This casting is a personal favorite.
50 Cent as Balrog

50 Cent joining the live-action Street Fighter movie was not on my bingo card for 2025, but I am all here for it. The infamous boxer has been around since 1991 and is a favorite amongst fans. However, will 50 Cent be able to live up to the famous character? Many fans have quite a few expectations around this one.
