Jean Claude Van Damn would be rolling in his grave if he saw this film. Well, if he were dead. But he’s not! He’s glued to the monitor just like us, watching this badass short film by Joey Ansah. This is what a film adaptation of a Street Fighter should be all about: fightin’! Check it out below!

StreetFighter Legacy has been a labour of love and passion project for its creator, Joey Ansah, who not only conceived and pitched the project, but also co-directed, co-wrote and choreographed it, alongside cameo’ing in the film. Collaborating, creative partner and long time friend Christian Howard was part of the project from day one, co-writing the script and story elements, as well as further down the line, storyboarding the film, being assistant fight choreographer and most importantly playing Ken Masters.

Streetlight repped Australian Director Owen Trevor came onboard to co-direct the film. His experience and style carried forward from shooting on 3 series of the acclaimed ‘Top Gear’ have really been an asset to the project and given it a strong visual flair.
