Tekken is a 2009 live-action film, based on the popular fighting game series of the same name. The film follows Jin Kazama (John Foo) to rid himself of the devil which plagues his soul. Now a man, he must confront his father, Kazuya Mishima (Ian Anthony Dale) and his grandfather, Heihachi Mishima (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa). The film is being directed by Dwight H. Little and is set for a Fall 2009 release date to coincide with the home console release of Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion.




In the year of 2039, after World Wars destroy much of civilization as we know it, the remaining territories are no longer run by governments, but by corporations the mightiest of which is the Mishima Corporation. In order to keep the masses down, Mishima Corporation sponsors the King of Iron Fist Tournament in which fighters compete to the death for ultimate glory and receive a lifetime of stardom and wealth. We are introduced to this violent world through the eyes of Jin Kazama, a street fighter that enters the tournament in order to avenge the death of his mother that he blames upon Tekken's powerful and controlling chairman – Heihachi Mishima. He knows that the only way to get close enough to Mishima to kill him is to win the tournament, but in doing so, he begins to uncover his own past and inner demons as well as exposing a dark underbelly to Tekken that threatens the very existence of humanity.
