Look, any film production is bound to be challenging. No one can prepare for everything that might go wrong, but it appears as if these events will wait until the people are on set to strike. However, "Street Fighter" seemed to experience the worst kind of luck coupled with a highly pressurized environment, as Byron Mann discussed with Movie Mavericks. "It was a very tumultuous shoot," he said.
The actor explained how the troubled production took place for two months in Thailand and two months in Australia. There was a large group of people working on the film, and the sets were equally as massive as well, he said, so "Street Fighter" naturally had a lot of moving components to manage and control. To make matters worse, the film's line producer had a heart attack, Mann said, and had to leave the film after a month.
Despite all of the setbacks and more drama than "Days of Our Lives," Mann affirmed he had a great time. "It was a very stressful situation, but for me it felt like I was on a big vacation, I was just happy to be on set," he said. "To this day people recognize me from 'Street Fighter.'"
