The movie is set to be released in theaters on October 16, 2026. Rhodes (as Guile), Reigns (Akuma), and Goto (E. Honda) all have roles in the project. In the trailer that dropped today, Rhodes can be seen multiple times, with Reigns showing up at 2:22 and Goto being seen at 2:15.
Here is the official description for the film, which is the latest attempt to bring Capcom’s iconic “Street Fighter” video game series to the big screen:
- Set in 1993, estranged Street Fighters Ryu (Andrew Koji) and Ken Masters (Noah Centineo) are thrown back into combat when the mysterious Chun-Li (Callina Liang) recruits them for the next World Warrior Tournament: a brutal clash of fists, fate, and fury. But behind this battle royale lies a deadly conspiracy that forces them to face off against each other and the demons of their past. And if they don’t, it’s GAME OVER!
- Helmed by director Kitao Sakurai, Street Fighter is set to bring the battle from the arcade to the big screen with Hadoukens, roundhouses, and all your favorite characters.
Rhodes and Reigns have a big weekend coming up with them set to headline the respective nights of WrestleMania 42. This Saturday, Rhodes is putting his Undisputed WWE Championship on the line against Randy Orton (w/ Pat McAfee). Reigns will then challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship on Sunday.
