Roman Reigns Reportedly In Talks For Street Fighter Movie Role

Roman Reigns, a major WWE star, is reportedly in talks to star in Legendary Studios' live-action adaptation of the iconic Capcom video game 'Street Fighter,' joining a cast that includes Andrew Koji, Jason Momoa, and Noah Centineo. The film is co-developed and co-produced with Capcom, though plot details and Reigns' potential role remain undisclosed. Reigns has expressed a desire to transition from wrestling to Hollywood, aiming to be selective with his acting projects, inspired by figures like Quentin Tarantino. He has previous acting experience in 'Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw' alongside his cousin Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and other films such as 'The Wrong Missy.' With his WWE contract running until 2026 and plans to wind down his wrestling career, Reigns is poised to take on more significant roles in entertainment. The 'Street Fighter' franchise is one of the highest-grossing video game series, making this film a potentially major Hollywood opportunity for Reigns.
