TL;DR

David Dastmalchian—the underrated character actor you’ve probably spotted in everything from indie gems to buzzy horror flicks—has officially been tapped to play the big bad M. Bison in Legendary’s live-action Street Fighter movie. It’s the biggest single role of his nearly 20-year career (sorry, “The Life of Chuck” fans), and comes on the heels of his standout turn in the viral frightfest Late Night with the Devil. Reps for Legendary aren’t talking, but we’re guessing Dastmalchian’s signature mix of intensity and off-kilter charm will make the dictator of Shadaloo a villain to remember.
