A new trailer for Crystal Sky Pictures' live-action adaptation of the popular Namco Tekken video game franchise has been released, even though the movie still does not have a U.S. release date. In this trailer, we are shown the reason why Jin Kazama (John Foo) decides to enter the Iron Fist Tournament and who his combatants will be!
Synopsis
Set in 2039, the film promises non-stop high flying action as the greatest fighters from around the world come to compete in the last and greatest sporting event of all time, the Fist Tournament. After World Wars destroy much of civilization as we know it, the remaining territories are no longer run by governments, but by corporations the mightiest of which is Tekken. In order to keep the masses down, Tekken sponsors the Iron Fist Tournament in which fighters compete to the death for ultimate glory and receive a lifetime of stardom and wealth.
We are introduced to this violent world through the eyes of Jin Kazama, a street fighter that enters the tournament in order to avenge the death of his mother that he blames upon Tekken's powerful and controlling Chairman, Heihachi Mishima. He knows that the only way to get close enough to Mishima to kill him is to win the tournament. With the help of Lucas, an aging Iron Fist Champion and fight trainer, Jin makes his way through the tournament, but in doing so, he begins to uncover his own past and inner demons as well as exposing a dark underbelly to Tekken that threatens the very existence of humanity.
Tekken also stars Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa as Heihachi Mishima, Gary Daniels as Bryan Fury, Luke Goss as Steve Fox, Lateef Crowder as Eddy Gordo, Cung Le as Marshall Law, Darrin Dewitt Henson as Raven, Gary Ray Stearns as Yoshimitsu, and Hyun-kyoon Lee as Hwoarang.
