A new update on the upcoming Street Fighter movie has revealed that it will be released in 2026, despite the project losing its directors.
In an update to IGN, Sony Pictures confirmed that the movie will be released on March 20, 2026, but the company did not reveal who will now direct it.
So far, all we know about the project is that it’s being produced alongside Street Fighter publisher and developer Capcom, with directors Danny and Michael Philippou walking away from the project due to scheduling.
There has yet to be any official announcements on who will be cast in the film.
Street Fighter has already had two films, which were perceived pretty poorly by audiences. The 1994 film was given a 20% audience score on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes but did accumulate $100 million at the box office though on an estimated $35 million budget. 2009’s Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li didn’t fair much better either with audience ratings, coming in at 18%.
It’s unclear when we will get more updates on the upcoming movie, but with less than two years until its intended release date, information could trickle through soon.
