After twin directors Danny and Michael Philippou sent the horror world into a tizzy with their excellent A24 frightfest Talk To Me, Legendary Entertainment and Capcom wasted little timerecruiting the writer-director duo back in April 2023 to helm a rebooted adaptation ofStreet Fighter. They were fans of the game franchise, saying, “We’d love the chance to do big set pieces of a big budget because even on our YouTube stuff, we’re designing stunt rigs that had never been done before. And to do that on a grand scale, man, I feel like we could create something no one’s ever seen before,” as expressed to Collider at our SDCC 2023 studio. Fans’ collective hearts broke in June 2024 when they pivoted to direct their upcoming horror film Bring Her Back, with schedule conflicts resulting in their exit from the adaptation.
