Actor and stuntman Joey Ansah, famous for playing ‘Desh’, the assassin in The Bourne Ultimatum, decided the time was right for a different type of film version of Street Fighter. Streetlight repped Australian director Owen Trevor came on board to co-direct the film with his experience and strong visual flair carried forward from shooting on three series of the acclaimed Top Gear. Co-writing with Christian Howard, Joey also choreographed all the fight sequences and it was posted at Prime Focus.
The film brings the much-loved game to life in what Joey and Producer Jacqueline Quella describe as ?a love letter to the fans and the brilliance of the game.? Every effort to ensure all the details are as faithful to the original as possible, including the costumes, choreography, narrative, music and the cherished special moves.
