Street Fighter: Legacy is a live-action short fan film based on Capcom's popular fighting game series Street Fighter. The film is a Streetlight Films production, co-directed by Joey Ansah (of The Bourne Ultimatum) and Owen Trevor, produced by Jacqueline Quella and stars Jon Foo as Ryu, Christian Howard as Ken, and Ansah himself as Akuma/Gouki. Both Ansah and Howard are also the writers of the film.
Capcom has said to have "given their blessing" to the film, and the film was released on 6 May 2010.[1] There are currently plans for a series and several cast members have already been chosen.[2] [3]
The film follows Ryu after waking up from a nightmare about Akuma. While walking in the forest, he is followed by a mysterious warrior revealed to be Ken Masters, Ryu's old friend and sparring partner. The two have a match together using their signature moves Hadōken, Shoryuken, Tatsumaki Senpū Kyaku in the daytime and nighttime in the rain. The film ends with the two in mid-air about to kick.
