Producer Erik Feig, a former studio executive, is shepherding film adaptations of both Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury, aiming to capitalize on the renewed interest in video-game cinema following successes like the recent Street Fighter film. The projects join a growing slate of gaming properties in development, as studios search for intellectual property with built-in fan bases.
