Bison cast for STREET FIGHTER
Posted by Matt Holmes
The extremely recognisable and constantly in demand character actor Neal McDonough (Minority Report, Flags of our Fathers) has been cast in the role of Bison for Hyde Park Entertainment’s Street Fighter movie.
As we’ve said before, very strangely the movie will follow the rather uninteresting character of Chun-Li (Smallville’s Kristen Kreuk) and it’s a complete restart with no connections to the 1995 Jean Claude Van Damme/Kylie Minogue disaster.
The rest of the boring cast includes…
Michael Clarke Duncan…. BALROG
Taboo (from the Black Eyed Peas)… VEGA
Chris Klein… NASH
Rick Yune… GEN
Moon Bloodgood, Edmund Chen and Cheng Pei Pei in unknown roles.
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li will be directed by Andrzej Bartkowiak, who translated the equally popular video game Doom into a crappy movie three years ago.
Justin Marks, who we are going to hear an awful lot more from in the coming years as he has wrote the screenplays for the huge movies Voltron, Masters of the Universe and Super Max (the Green Arrow movie) is credited with writing the screenplay.
Marks’ sudden rise in the industry is the only think keeping me going for this movie at this point. And at worse, it can’t be any worse than the last attempt to make this one dimensional video game into a movie… right?

I don’t see him as Bison.
I doubt it’ll be as bad as the last film.
Did I read that right?….Taboo (Black Eyed Peas) as Vega?…I just lost interest in this film.
Damn, he was my choice for Duke in G.I.Joe. Now he’s gone into bad genre-flick hell.
