Asked about the possibility of a new live action Tekken film, as reportedly announced during the Cannes festival, franchise creator Katsuhiro Harada tweeted what seems like a partial denial, asking fans not to go “jumping the gun” in believing rumours. The first Tekken film was quite poorly received, with Harada himself judging it “terrible”.

Character renders for Angel, Ogre, and Kunimitsu popped up on Gamespot yesterday in the assets section for Tekken Tag Tournament 2. The shots were quickly removed, as the character haven’t been announced for the title as of yet, but Shoryuken quickly grabbed the shots before removal. Go have a look. TTT2 launches on PS3 and Xbox 360 in September.

The report also states the casting director is going to choose actors who resemble their in-game counterparts instead of going after more familiar stars. A release window or production schedule wasn’t provided.

“I’m thinking about Itagaki and when [former 1UP editor and Q Entertainment's James Mielke] was with you guys that was a big topic — the ‘what are your five most hated games?’ article where he said 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 were all Tekken, right? If Itagaki was still making Dead or Alive, I’d like to ask, out of all the current Tekken titles we have planned, what’s his favorite. His answer would probably be Dead or Alive anyway, and that he hates all Tekken, but it’d be an interesting question. In the past, Itagaki had always mentioned various things about Tekken and stuff, especially on 1UP in his articles with [Mielke]. And there were a few times when I got pissed at what I saw, but I’m kind of realizing that when I saw what he was saying — after he quit Team Ninja, I think he was asked about fighting games and what he thought, and apparently Itagaki said, ‘Well I don’t make fighting games anymore, so I’m not really in a place to comment on that’ — I felt kind of sad when I saw that.” – Tekken creator Katsuhiro Harada, speaking to 1UP about Dead or Alive creator Tomonobu Itagaki’s infamous trash-talking of the series.

It shows.

Be careful though as this trailer is actually slightly NSFW. Why is that? Because at about 3:55, a bear farts in Guile’s face. That’s not a joke. It’s horrifying.
