Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist is an upcoming live-action web/television series being developed by Joey Ansah and Christian Howard. The series, which is based on the popular video game series by Capcom, Street Fighter, will focus on Ryu and Ken Masters as they uncover the past of their master, Gouken.[2][3]

The series is slated to start late 2013 and will be shot in Bulgaria and is set to be released in early 2014. [4][5][6][7]

Production

A short film, Street Fighter: Legacy, was released on YouTube in 2010 as a proof-of-concept. During San Diego Comic-Con International 2012 Capcom announced it had granted rights to the creators to go ahead with the project.[8]

The series started a Kickstarter crowdsource funding campaign in order to source funds for production.[9] The campaign was cancelled on April 17, 2013 when private backers stepped forward with the money necessary, removing the need for the crowdsource funds.[10]

Ansah discusses to ShogunGamer that if the show is a hit, he would like to have Scott Adkins as Guile and do a World Warrior story.[11]

On July 14, 2013, production began filming in Sumeonovo, Grad Sofiya, Bulgaria. [12][13][14] On August 24, 2013, filming on the series wrapped. [15]

On August 20, 2013, In an interview with Game Reactor, Ansah talked about Ryu and Ken's story and said "a good analogy with Ryu is that he's not actually ever competing with anyone else; he's competing with himself to Ken is driven fiercely by competition. A lot of Ken's conflict comes from his relationship with his father. Without giving too much away, we learn in this series how Ken came to be in Japan, in Gouken's dojo".[16]

On November 1, 2013, Content has sold worldwide online rights for Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist to a major global online channel for a short first window. Other key territories snapped up for subsequent rights and windows include: UK, Australia, US, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, Scandinavia (Funimation); German-speaking Europe and Benelux (Polyband); Central & Eastern Europe, Russia, Turkey, Middle East (Daro Film Distribution); Thailand (IPA Asia); Portugal (Lusomundo), and South Korea (Sonamu) and handling worldwide sales on the film for all media.[17]
