Street Fighter’s Blanka Joins Santos FC, Flaunts CBF Pouch in New Look Ahead of Movie Debut

Blanka, the Brazilian character from the Street Fighter fighting game, is a fan of Santos Football Club. Capcom, the game’s producer, released an image showing the character—who has been present in the franchise since 1991—wearing a pouch with a fish emblem and another of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). Despite being introduced as a Brazilian fighter, Blanka was not born in the country. According to UOL, he was originally a boy named Jimmy who crashed in the Amazon and underwent a mutation that turned his skin green and granted him abilities similar to electric eels, allowing him to use electricity in his attacks. In 2025, Paramount Pictures will release a new Street Fighter movie. A trailer reveals the cast: Andrew Koji as Ryu Noah Centineo as Ken Masters Callina Liang as Chun-Li Cody Rhodes as Guile Jason Momoa as Blanka Orville Peck as Vega 50 Cent as Balrog Vidyut Jammwal as Dhalsim Olivier Richters as Zangief Hirooki Goto as E.
