What happens

Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist is a British martial arts web series developed by Joey Ansah and Christian Howard. Based on Capcom's Street Fighter video game series, it is the third live-action adaptation of the game franchise. The story focuses on Ryu and Ken as they uncover the past of their master, Gouken, and learn the secrets of their dark art, Ansatsuken. The web series was released on Machinima's YouTube channel on 23 May 2014. It was recompiled into a 6-episode television series and film, with IFC Films releasing the film on 7 January 2015. A sequel series, Street Fighter: World Warrior, which would have seen Ryu and Ken come into conflict with M. Bison and Shadaloo, was in development, but was eventually scrapped in favour of Street Fighter: Resurrection, which served as a tie-in to Street Fighter V. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
