Legendary Pictures' new live-action "Street Fighter" film, which was announced for development two years ago, confirmed in February that Kitao Sakurai, director of the Netflix comedy "Bad Trip," would helm the project. Sakurai replaced the previously considered filmmaking duo Danny and Michael Philippou, who helmed "Talk to Me." Now, three months later, the first wave of casting news has emerged.
