Fake Chris Hemsworth Street Fighter Trailer Goes Viral – Fans Can’t Stop Talking About It
A newly unveiled trailer for a supposed Street Fighter: Live Action Movie (2026) starring Chris Hemsworth has taken the internet by storm — and it’s got fans buzzing with excitement, skepticism, and even a little wishful thinking.
The video, which dropped on March 27, 2025, comes from Ultimate Studios, a YouTube channel well-known for its hyper-realistic, fan-made movie trailers. This latest creation is powered by AI and teases a cinematic transformation of the iconic Street Fighter video game franchise, featuring intense martial arts sequences, visually stunning environments, and Chris Hemsworth seemingly stepping into the role of the disciplined fighter Ryu.
Within days, the trailer had amassed nearly 345,000 views and hundreds of comments. One fan gushed, “If this were real, I’d be first in line. Hemsworth as Ryu just feels perfect.” Another wrote, “Even though it’s fake, this is the kind of energy a Street Fighter movie should have.”

However, the excitement quickly turned into debate. While the trailer’s Hollywood-quality visuals had many convinced it was legit, others dug deeper and confirmed it’s purely fan-made. There’s no official confirmation from Columbia Pictures, Capcom, or Chris Hemsworth himself about any Street Fighter project currently in development.
Still, that hasn’t stopped the speculation. Across Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), gamers and movie buffs are imagining what a real adaptation might look like. One user posted, “Capcom, if you’re reading this, hire these people immediately.” Another added, “Street Fighter has the potential to be the next big fighting game movie franchise if handled right — especially with the success of Mortal Kombat and The Last of Us.”
For now, the viral trailer remains a clever, AI-driven fan fantasy — but it’s also proof that the appetite for a high-quality Street Fighter movie is stronger than ever. Whether Chris Hemsworth ever dons Ryu’s signature headband is still a mystery, but fans are already dreaming of Hadoukens on the big screen in 2026.
