Paramount Pictures and Legendary Entertainment’s Street Fighter is all set to make its way to the big screen this Friday. Recently, the film’s star-studded world premiere was held at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles. The event brought together stars Noah Centineo, Andrew Koji, Jason Momoa, 50 Cent, Roman Reigns, along with India’s favourite action hero, Vidyut Jammwal, and other cast members ahead of the film’s theatrical release.

Adding to the buzz, early reactions are out and praising the film’s explosive action, irreverent humour, ’90s nostalgia and faithful adaptation of the beloved video game franchise. Describing it as a “winner”, “kick-ass” and “a silly, fun, and fearless good time”, the film is drawing praise for its larger-than-life spectacle, standout performances and striking animation.

Brandon Davis (@BrandonDavisBD) called: #StreetFighter is a winner. It’s a 90s throwback with visual nostalgia but also in its humor and selling of a hot cast. Koji’s Ryu; great. Cody is really funny. Schulz lands a lot, too. Roman’s scary good as Akuma, especially in voiceover. A silly, fun, and fearless good time.

It pays homage to the games perfectly and Kitao Sakurai directs the best ensemble cast of the year. It doesn’t take itself seriously and is a total blast, Callina Liang and Cody Rhodes are the MVPs!

AJ Galiardi (@AJGaliardi) wrote: #StreetFighterMovie is KICK-ASS! It PUNCHES its way into one of the BEST FILMS you’ll see this year. Kitao Sakurai hits the perfect combo of style, energy, and fun. Noah Centineo and Andrew Koji land every move, while Callina Liang is a dream Chun-Li. This is the Street Fighter movie fans have been waiting for. HADOUKEN!

SubaTube (@subatube) said: Just got out of the #streetfighter premiere, and I had a blast! The movie really captures the spirit of the games, with tons of fun references for fans. The soundtrack is awesome, and the 2D animation was a real highlight. Such a fun experience for Street Fighter fans. Read the reaction: https://x.com/SUBATUBE/status/2109824180502008088

Meanwhile, critic Chris Killian (@chriskillian) elaborated: #StreetFighter is like Bloodsport on horse steroids, featuring some delightfully over-the-top, explosive action. It’s also funny in a way that both homages the ridiculousness of 80s action movies while poking fun at the toxic machismo those same movies helped inspire. Even the flashbacks sprinkled throughout feature some of the most beautiful SF animation you’ll ever see. I can’t imagine anyone making a more faithful, bombastic Street Fighter film. For what it aims to be, I think it’s damn near perfect. Read his reaction: https://x.com/chriskillian/status/2109871682408395043

Paramount Pictures’ Highly Anticipated Live-Action Feature Hits Indian Cinemas This Friday, 16th October, in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu

For the team behind Paramount Pictures’ Street Fighter, bringing the iconic CAPCOM video game franchise to the big screen is much more than a routine studio project. Director Kitao Sakurai alongside stars Andrew Koji, Noah Centineo, and Jason Momoa all grew up playing the legendary arcade game, channeling their lifelong passion to deliver an authentic cinematic experience for hardcore fans and newcomers alike.

The game formed an integral part of their childhoods in distinct ways. Koji was born in 1987—the exact year the original Street Fighter was unleashed—and grew up mastering its iconic sequels. Centineo spent countlessly devoted hours at his cousins’ basement arcade cabinet playing as Blanka, while Sakurai, a half-Japanese kid raised in Ohio, felt a deep personal connection seeing Ryu as one of the first fictional heroes who truly mirrored his own heritage.

Reflecting on directing the film, Kitao Sakurai shared:

“As a Japanese-American filmmaker, to have the honor to do Street Fighter makes me feel incredibly proud. To be able to incorporate the feelings I had as a child, to be able to bring to life the aspects of the game that as a fan, you felt in your heart, is exactly what I hope the movie captures. We’re excited that this is the most accurate Street Fighter adaptation ever made, in terms of the fighting styles, the moves, the costumes and the tone and spirit of the characters.”

Actor and producer Jason Momoa, who brings the fan-favorite character Blanka to life, emphasized the film’s broad appeal:

“Street Fighter will make you laugh, and cry, and have a really great time. This is my childhood. Street Fighter was everything growing up. For existing fans, and new fans, it’s such a diverse world and cast – there’s something for everyone in it.”

Andrew Koji, who steps into the boots of Ryu, spoke about the team’s dedication to honors the lore:

“We all wanted to make sure that not only can we get new fans to love it, but the hardcore fans too. There are so many nods we put in there and we’re bringing a Street Fighter film that has never been done before and hopefully will be remembered for a long time to come.”

Noah Centineo, starring as Ken Masters, highlighted the scale designed specifically for the big screen experience:

“It’s a huge movie. It is so visually stimulating that seeing that on a huge screen is the way to see it. The fights are sweaty, and bloody, you want to see that huge, and the sound design – the seats are going to shake.”

Set in 1993, the story follows estranged street fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) as they are thrust back into combat when the mysterious Chun-Li (Callina Liang) recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament. What begins as a brutal clash of fists and fate quickly unravels into a deadly conspiracy, forcing the duo to confront each other and the dark demons of their past.

At the special event, Vidyut not only opened up about playing the character but also gave everyone a look at why he was the best choice to play the yogi character. The actor meditated on stage with cosplayers dressed as Dhalsims for straight 15 minutes, giving the world a look at his yogic superpower.

After he completed his silent meditation, Vidyut revealed he used a special technique of Patanjali Yoga Sutra, which helped him not only hold his breath for 15 minutes but also achieve greater milestones in life. He revealed he also teaches this technique to youngsters. The idea is to meditate, to understand that things take time to reach fruition but if you keep at it, you will achieve your goal.

“Main apni younger generation ko ek baat bolna chata hu, ruk jao thoda sa. “How do you get it?” I don’t know how I got it, because I stood still. Hum dekh rahe sab log bhag rahe hai, yeh karna hai, voh karna hai, yeh karna hai, voh karna hai, kuch nahi karna hai; ek baar tham jao, ek baar ruk jao. That skill will really really take you very far. This is what I can tell you, thank you for witnessing this,” he told the young generation.

This Independence Day, Street Fighter actor Vidyut Jammwal took to his social media to give audiences a glimpse of his mastery of India’s traditional martial arts, offering a compelling look at why he is the ideal choice to bring the iconic Indian fighter Dhalsim to life in Paramount Pictures’ Street Fighter.

In the video, Vidyut Jammwal showcases the Vada-Chakkar, an iconic weapon of Gatka, the traditional martial art of the Sikhs. He demonstrates remarkable control, precision, and fluidity while explaining that mastering its spin requires years of practice to understand its momentum and flow. He also draws a parallel between the Vada-Chakkar and the Urumi of Kalaripayattu, highlighting the richness of India’s martial arts heritage.

His blend of physical skill, discipline, and philosophical understanding of these ancient practices makes his casting as Dhalsim especially fitting. As the Street Fighter character—an Indian yogi and martial artist known for extraordinary abilities and spiritual discipline—finds an authentic real-world counterpart in Vidyut, bringing India’s martial arts tradition to a global stage.

Vidyut’s latest showcase is a powerful reminder that his casting as Dhalsim is more than just a role—it seamlessly connects his real-life martial arts expertise with the character’s Indian roots, making him a natural fit for the iconic fighter.
