I must really have been out of the movie updates addiction for some time because this is the first I've heard of Kristin Kreuk as ChunLi of the Street Fighters. The film started filming on March and it is set in Thailand. The movie will be about Chun Li seeking vengeance for the murder of her father. The murderer is, of course, M. Bison.
Kristin Kreuk has Chinese blood in her, and as a former gymnast, i think she'll be able to pull off some action kicks and stuff. I just have some trouble picturing her as a street fighter. But I've seen a picture of her with mud on her face and with unclean clothes on (a shot out of the movie, maybe) so I can't make any serious judgment on her taking on the role at this moment.
The movie Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li focuses on Chun Li's journey in avenging her father's death. Another interesting news is that Kristin Kreuk won't be sporting the white buns, stockings, and brown suit that we are used to seeing Chun Li in. The creators of the movie obviously want things more realistic. The movie is set to be out next year.

WOW! Thanks for this great info. I am a fan of Kreuk (way back Smallville) and of course of Chun Li too :). Can't wait to see this.
