The upcoming “Street Fighter” live-action film, based on the famous video game, recently unveiled a new logo after experiencing delays in its release. Due to some challenges along the way, this adaptation has faced uncertainty. Originally slated for release in 2026, the “Street Fighter” movie has been taken off Sony Pictures’ schedule following changes in its directorial team – Kitao Sakurai replacing Danny and Michael Philippou as the project’s helmsmen.

At the Licensing Expo held in Las Vegas, ScreenRant’s Brennan Klein was present, and Capcom unveiled a fresh logo concept for the upcoming “Street Fighter” film. The title of the movie stands out boldly in neon red and yellow hues. Additionally, the logo seems to float above a dim alleyway, hinting at its ominous and grim atmosphere. You can see the new design here:

What This Means For The Street Fighter Movie

The Live-action Street Fighter Movie Is Still Being Made

The planned arrival of the adaptation was set for March 20, 2026; however, its removal pushes forward the release date of the survival thriller “Shiver,” which initially was due in August. Although this schedule change indicates a possible delay in the project, the new logo provides a subtle update and confidence that the project is still under development.

The departure of Danny and Michael Philippou was mainly due to clashes in their schedules and their dedication to prior projects. At the time they left, the project was still under development, suggesting there may be progress, though things are currently happening quietly behind the scenes. As for the Street Fighter movie, it appears that it is yet to secure its leading actors. Although it was removed from Sony’s release schedule, a new logo hints that the production is still ongoing.

Our Take On Street Fighter’s New Logo Design

It’s Bold And Modern, But Still True To The Brand

The iconic brand’s logo showcases a combination of bold red and yellow hues, a color scheme that persists throughout the film’s logo. Contrastingly, the movie boasts an empty design with electric accents, imbuing it with a contemporary, edgy ambiance that is both exhilarating and faithful to the source material. Previously, Street Fighter was reimagined in 1994, resulting in mixed reviews, making this moment ideal for a fresh, outstanding adaptation.

As a fan who appreciates the work of Sakurai, known for his brilliant direction in “Bad Trip” and “The Eric Andre Show,” I’ve got to say, his unique perspective on the franchise is truly refreshing. The new logo he’s designed is quite appealing, managing to resonate with gamers and non-gamers alike while still maintaining the authenticity of the brand without compromising it. Sakurai might just be the key to elevating live-action video game adaptations like “Street Fighter” to new heights.
