Stars Celebrate "Street Fighter"

Welcome to younghollywood. com I'm Michelle Hamo with Young Hollywood and tonight we're at the 20th anniversary of Street Fighter. Let's check it out.

We got an exciting night tonight. There's so many people who love Street Fighter.

Yes. And you play Balrog.

I play Balrog. I play the guy who's a boxer, the power puncher, the heavy. When you see me in this movie, you will know what power and fear is all about.

Should we be scared?

Oh, you should be real scared because I bring the pain all day and all night.

Are you big in gaming? Have you played the game before?

I played it 20 years ago.

On what console did you play it? The arcade? Did you play it?

The arcade, which was a lot easier. You just had the joystick and two buttons. That's like the the fun way to do it. See now it's too complicated.

You're a bad guy in this.

Yeah, it's, you know, lately they want the blonde hair blue-eyed guy to play all the bad guys in Street Fighter and Housewives and everything else.

So did you play it back in the day?

Oh, everyone played Street Fighter. Back in the day, I was playing the first Street Fighter and, you know, Bison was always the badass to get through and any crazy stories you had that happened on the set? Michael Clarke Duncan and myself were in Thailand for so long that we saw each other tonight for the first time in six months. We just jumped in each other's arms and hugged each other and just had a we've been hanging out all night when you're away from your wife and Michael is away from his girlfriend Vanessa. It's hard. And and we were there for each other the whole time.

You guys are cuddle bunnies?

Oh, I I love that cat like you have no idea. He's my boy and then we had a we had a blast. So you're excited to have you played the game before? My brother's playing right now and he's playing my roommates and I can't wait to uh get in there and try to beat my brother. He's always beating me. As a little tyke, he was always Ryu and he knew the moves. He's very internet savvy. And I'm more of a button masher. So I would just try everything. Low kick, low kick. Never won.

Do you have any uh knowledge of martial arts in general?

Yeah, Jijitsu. Excited to see the movie? Kristin Kreuk. I hear call me. Kristin, call me. I got to give big shout out to Michael Clarke Duncan. We play basketball together. He's fantastic.

Can he dunk on you?

He he he did more than dunk on me. He he just knocked me to the ground and then just slammed the ball. Young Hollywood. This is me Balrog. Come see Street Fighter or else. And believe me, I will find you young Hollywood. You cannot hide.
