Any other details about the new Street Fighter movie, including artwork and crew details, are currently in the works.
Danny and Michael Filippou are best known for their YouTube channel, RackaRacka, which launched in 2013 and has since garnered 6.7 million subscribers. Their first feature film, Talk to Me, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and its distribution rights were acquired by A24.
