Street Fighter: Legacy is a live-action short fan film based on Capcom's popular fighting game series Street Fighter. The film is a Streetlight Films production, co-directed by Joey Ansah (of The Bourne Ultimatum) and Owen Trevor, produced by Jacqueline Quella and stars Jon Foo as Ryu, Christian Howard as Ken, and Ansah himself as Akuma/Gouki. Both Ansah and Howard are also the writers of the film.
Capcom has said to have "given their blessing" to the film, and the film was released on May 6, 2010. There are currently plans for a series and several cast members have already been locked down.
The film follows Ryu after waking up from a nightmare about Akuma. While walking in the forest, he is followed by a mysterious warrior revealed to be Ken Masters, Ryu's old friend and sparring partner. The two have a match together using their signature moves Hadōken, Shoryuken, Tatsumaki Senpū Kyaku in the daytime and nighttime in the rain. The film ends with the two in mid-air about to kick.
