The Streets of Rage series is an iconic series of games with a cult following. The gameplay is intensively hack-and-slash, but its unique premise and setting made it a classic in the action genre. This storytelling video game franchise, which deserves a movie adaptation, has been widely anticipated to get one after Keanu Reeves’ hitman movie John Wick. So far, we have seen better games than movies like Resident Evil that were based on video games like Tomb Raider or Silent Hill: Book of Memories which was based on the Silent Hill series. The idea of making a movie based on the Streets of Rage series is just like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. The movie developer Michael J. Bassett whose previous work was done on the movie adaptation of John Wick said that they are looking at this game to be turned into a feature film, but they do not want to remaster it and make it another action flick. He also said that the team intends to look into what happened in the series’ short-lived comic books and ultimately select an approach similar to what they did with John Wick, which is to stay as close as possible to the video game while making an original story.
