Why Zangief From Street Fighter (2026) Looks So Familiar
Kitao Sakurai's "Street Fighter" film is shockingly authentic to the Capcom video game series that it's based on.
Summary
Kitao Sakurai's "Street Fighter" film is shockingly authentic to the Capcom video game series that it's based on. Unlike the previous "Street Fighter" movies, Sakurai's film takes the franchise's character designs quite literally, giving its live-action actors the same haircuts, outfits, and body hair patterns as their animated counterparts. Case in point: the film's version of Zangief is a massive Russian bruiser with X-shaped scars on his shoulders, a weird bird-shaped chest hair pattern, and a big bushy beard.
